Optimal Matching of Flapping Hydrofoil Propulsion Performance Considering Interaction Effects of Motion Parameters

In order to maximize the propulsion efficiency of flapping hydrofoil, a new method is proposed in this paper. The effects of heave amplitude, pitch amplitude, and the phase difference between heave and surge on propulsion performance were analyzed by numerical calculation, and it was found that thre...
