Experimental Study on the Influence of Bulbous Bow Form on the Velocity Field around the Bow of a Trimaran Using Towed Underwater 2D-3C SPIV

Experimental Study on the Influence of Bulbous Bow Form on the Velocity Field around the Bow of a Trimaran Using Towed Underwater 2D-3C SPIV

In this study, particle image velocimetry was applied to measure the flow field around the bow region of a trimaran with different appendages. The dimensionless axial velocity <i>u</i>/<i>U</i> in test planes 1 and 2 of the testing model was measured by using a towed underwat...
