AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE EFFECT OF PROPELLER HULL INTERACTION ON THE STRUCTURES OF THE WAKE FIELD

The paper deals with the determination of the effective wake of a tanker model. Effective wake fields were derived from the flow measurements in the orifice of three diffusers, representing a propeller at various loads. Differences between nominal and effective wake are discussed.
