Aero-Hydrodynamics and the Performance of Sailing Yachts
Year: 2010 Language: English Author: Fossati F. Genre: Manual Publisher: International Marine/Ragged Mountain Press Format: PDF, DjVu Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 371 Description: A groundbreaking introduction to how sailboats behave, and a guide for predicting the performance of a modern sailing yacht. Aero-hydrodynamics and the Performance of Sailing Yachts is the first major yacht design treatise to come along in a decade. With its cutting-edge explanations of how sails, keels, and rudders interact with their respective fluids to make a boat sail--and of how to use that knowledge to optimize a boat--this is a book that every student of yacht design will want on his or her shelf.
Contents
-The Physical model of yacht motion The hydrodynamics of a sailing boat Hull and keel forms More about the hydrodynamics of sailing boat Sailing boat aerodynamics Steady state dynamics of a sailing boat More about sailing yacht dynamics Physical model testing Performance prediction The use of numerical method in yacht design Elements of fluid mechanics Elements of boat hydrostatics The ORC international rating rule
