Open WL Archief (OWA)

Over het archief

Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.

Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

Abstract

A sailing ship displaces water and this amount of water needs to return along the hull. When the  environment is confined, as in a channel or canal, the water is squeezed in the gap between the ship and the  canal boundaries, increasing the return flow. The available space for the water to return is expressed as the  blockage ratio ?, which is the ratio of the cross sectional area of the ship and the cross section of the canal. With increasing ship speed the necessary return flow will no longer be met and the water will start to  accumulate in front of the ship. At this point the flow condition starts to change, which is commonly referred to  as the (first) critical speed. In the 1950s, critical speeds as a function of the blockage ratio were solved  graphically, but afterwards elegant goniometric formulations of these critical speeds as a function of the  blockage were established. Nevertheless, the appropriate proofs could not be traced back in literature.  Because of the importance of the speed ranges, and their relationship with squat and resistance of ships  navigating in canals, the present paper provides not only a proof of these goniometric relationships, but also  introduces approximated solutions.
