Effect of draft and frequency

EFFECT OF DRAFT AND FREQUENCY

Effect of draft and frequency is caluclated from the following equation:







: Deformed Bessel functions of the first kind of the first order;
: Deformed Bessel functions of the second kind of the first order;
: Number of waves;
: Frequency;
: Ship's speed.


This calculation method has been confirmed by tank test* as follows.
