AIR FLOW AND STACK GAS DISPERSION EXPERIMENTS FOR A 270-FT U.S. COAST GUARD MEDIUM ENDURANCE CUTTER (WMEC) REPRESENTED BY MODEL 5349

A project was established at the David W. Taylor Naval Ship R and D Center (DTNSRDC) to assist the U.S. Coast Guard in the evaluation of a design for a 270-ft Medium Endurance Cutter (WMEC). This report documents the Air Flow and Stack Gas Dispersion Experiments requested. Results show improved stack gas flow when the uptakes are raised approximately 21 inches from the original location.
