Some Model Experiments on the Propulsive Performances of Small Passenger Ships with Single Screws

Abstract

Now in Japan small passenger ships are under contemplation. But owing to the construction in a great hurry it is quite impossible to perform the model experiments by each of them. While as far as I know, for such fine and small passenger ships, there are few model experiments reliable to use. Therefore heintended to study the propulsive performances of this sort of ships by the model experiments, and nowadays they are under experiment in our experimental tank.
In this paper a part of the above experiments already completed ae treated as the first report.
