June 1969.
Tentative results of the horizontal oscillation tests with a k-meter model of the "British Bombardier".
by
G. van Leeuwen.
Suiiimary.
Horizontal oscillation tests were performed for four initial speeds with a model of the 50.000 ton deadweight tanker "British Bombardier", to determine the hydrodynamic derivatives of a non-linear mathematical model.
The test programme is given.
Tentative results are obtained without considering the correlation be-tween the measurements at the four initial speeds.
Introduction.
In pring of
1968
horizontal oscillation tests with a 1v-meter model of the tanker "British Bombardier" started. Originally the test programme was designed in such a way that the results of the tests conducted at one specified initial speed would contain the information needed for the determination of the hydrodynamic derivatives. Actually this means that the test programme should be repeated four times, i.e. for15.5,
12.b, 9.3
and6.2
knots. As this would take too much time in which the facilities could not be used for other purposes, the test programme was curtailed in such a way that could be expected that the remaining pro-gramme could supply sufficient information.For the determination of some non-linear derivatives however it was necessary to assume that the non-dimensional values are independent of the forward speed.
However the present report deals with the results of the separate tests, which means that some of the derivatives listed in tables II to IV are not definitive or have not yet a value at all.
-2-The test programme.
The test programme consisted of three parts i.e.:
I propulsion tests
II static- and oscillatory swaying tests III yawing tests
The propulsion tests vere performed to derive the additional model resistance and the number of revolutions of the propellor satisfying the condition of constant power during speed-loss simulation tests.
The static sway tests vere performed to determine all derivatives concer-ning combinationsof drift- and rudderangle, while the oscillatory swaying tests were mainly performed to determine the added mase in lateral
direction.
The yawing tests provided the remaining derivatives i.e. all coefficients concerning combinations of angular velocity, drift- and rudderangle.
In tables I and II a survey of the sway- and yaw tests performed is given.
Data procesing.
For the computation of the coefficients by a digital computer a least squares analysis is used. The pertinent Algol program is made in such a way that after the computation of the coefficients, their maximum contribution is compared to a given limit. If the contribution is less than this limit, the coefficient is supposed to be Zero while the remaining coefficients are computed again.
The tentative values of the derivatives summarized in tables III to VI are computed exclusively with the results of the tests performed with the speed which is given at the top of each column. As follows from the test programme in some cases the non-linear derivatives are determined for a very small range of the variable concerned or could not be determined at all. So in these cases the results of the other speeds will be combined and a new value of the non-linear derivative can be found by extrapolation.

Final report.
The final report will deal with the results of the above mentioned combination of all information available. The coefficients derived
in this way will be used for the predictions of the various ma-noeuvres performed by the
"BrtLsh
