Conventions

  • Coordinate system for comparisons is fixed to midship, undisturbed waterplane.
  • All quantities non-dimensionalized by density (r), ship speed (U) and length (L)
  • All CFD predicted force coefficients should be reported using the provided (geometry and conditions page) wetted surface area (SDWL).  Force coefficients defined as follows.
