ABSTRACT
The unsteady lift forces on a restrained hydrofoil in regular head and following waves of various wave lengths were measured at the steady zero lift angle, two submergence depths, and several foil speeds. A comparison of the experimental forces with linearized unsteady and quasi-steady theoretical forces revealed inadequacies in both theories.

INTRODUCTION
The increasing use of hydrofoils on seacraft requires that the forces im-posed on such foils be predictable for design purposes. In order to predict the response or stability of hydrofoil craft in waves, the unsteady lift force on a foil caused by its passage through waves must be known. This investigation is con-cerned with these wave-induced forces, more specifically with the unsteady forces caused by regular head and following waves on a thin submerged foil.
This study is closely related to those described in References i through 6. * An experimental study of hydrofoil craft response and stability in waves was
made previously by Leehey and Steele. They compared their experimental
re-suits with predictions based on quasi-steady analysis by Weinblum2 and reported that unsteady flow effects should be included in analyses for head sea conditions.
In theoretical studies, Kemp, 3 Kaplan, and Leehey, derived the unsteady lift
force on a fixed foil passing through a sinusoidally oscillating fluid. In addition, Kaplan4' 6 measured lift forces on restrained foils for a few speeds and for long wave lengths in head seas.
The author subsequently undertook this experimental study in waves of shorter length and at slower foil speeds in both head and following seas. The un-steady lift amplitude and phase with respect to the wave peak for two submergences
were measured at the zero lift angle. The experimental results are presented
here together with computations of theoretical predictions made for purposes of
compari son.
EXPERIMENT
E QTJIPME NT
The experiments were conducted in the NSRDC miniature model basin. This basin is approximately 55 ft long and has a constant-speed test section 30 ft long,
2 ft wide, and 2 ft deep. The basin was filled with water to a depth of 1. 55 ft. It is equipped with a towing carriage which has a maximum speed of 8 fps. The foil
used had a Wright 1903 airfoil section. Its aerodynamic characteristics and
off-sets are given in Reference 7. The foil has a span length of 12. 5 in. and a chord
length of 2.0 in. The foil was supported at each end by thin struts during the
tests.
Strain-gage dynamometers provided the connection between struts and the towing carriage. A pneumatic wavemaker at one end of the basin producedregu-lar sinusoidal waves with a maximum length of 5 ft. A wave absorber installed at the other end of the basin opposite the wavemaker minimized wave reflection.
Two capacitance-type gages were used to measure the wave height. One was fixed near the far end of the basin and the other was mounted on the towing
carriage. The carriage speed could be accurately determined by interrupted
dis-tance signals and timing marks. The lift and wave signals were amplified and recorded by means of a four-channel Sanborn recorder. This provided a continu-ous record of the lift and wave height during the test run. The dynamometers and
wave-height gages were calibrated statically. The experimental error is estimated
to be about 5 percent for the lift force and 0. 01 in. for the wave height measure-ments.
TEST PROGRAM
The foil was first towed in still water to obtain the steady lift coefficient as a function of angle of attack. The foil was submerged two chord lengths for these
tests. Since in previous tests' no change in lift with depth was noted until the submergence was approximately one chord length or less, the values obtained were assumed to be applicable also for any submergence greater than or equal t.o
one chord length. The steady lift coefficients were measured at a speed of about 5 fps. The zero lift angle was found to be -2 deg and the slope of the lift
coeffi-cient curve e' was 4.01 at that angle. The test conditions and results are
sum-marized in Table 1.

Steady-State Experimental Results:

Lift slope (at c) C' =4.01
AH of the unsteady wave force measurements were made with the foil at the zero lift angle. The runs in waves can be conveniently classified in four groups according to the direction of the wave progression and the submergence of the foil as follows:
Group I: Head Sea, one-chord submergence (h/2b = 1.06)
Group II: Head Sea, two-chord submergence (h/2b = 2. 0)
Group III: Following Sea, one-chord submergence (h/2b = 1. 0)
Group IV: Following Sea, two-chord submergence (h/2b = 2. 0)
Within each of these groups, the wave length was varied from about 2 to 5 ft. The wave height was varied from about 0. 03 to 0. 08 ft in head seas and from about
0. 01 to 0. 05 ft in following seas. In addition, the foil speed was varied from about
4 to 8 fps, except in Group I where it was nearly constant at 4. 9 fps for each run. TEST RESULTS
Results of tests in waves are presented in Tables 2 through 5. The foil velocity and phase angle were computed from the recorded data by the method described in Reference 1. The phase angle was not computed for the following-sea runs since the forces were observed to be very nearly in phase with the verti-cal component of orbital wave velocity for such low frequencies of encounter. The wave height a was determined from the moving wave-probe record and the wave
period T from the fixed wave-probe record. The wave length X was then
calcu-lated by the use of the relation:

WAVE MOTION
In a coordinate system moving with the foil, the surface wave profile above the midchord of the foil can be described by the expression
= a sinwt (3)
where is the height of the wave surface above the undisturbed water. surface,
a is the wave amplitude, t is the elapsed time, and w is the circular frequency
of encounter
w =-- (V ± c)
(4)The plus sign is used for head seas and the minus sign for the following seas. The vertical component of the orbital velocity of the fluid particles at depth h in an in-finitely deep fluid is
2ir h

-w = -w0 cos -wt
-
e cos wt (5)For the values of A/d used in the tests, the waves would be classified as deep water waves for the shorter wave lengths and as Stokian waves for the longer
wave lengths. 8 However, the effect of the finite water depth on the magnitude of
the vertical component of orbital wave velocity was evaluated by use of the theore-tical expressions for waves in water of finite depth. Calculations were made for both foil submergence depths. The error in the vertical component was less than 3 percent for the longest wave length.
UNSTEADY LIFT
Expressions for the unsteady lift on a fixed foil in surface waves were derived
by Kaplan.4 He assumed two-dimensional potential flow in an infinitely deep fluid
in which the wave height was assumed to be small in comparison to the wave length. The horizontal and vertical components (u and w, respectively) of the orbital wave
velocity were assumed to be small compared to the foil speed. Kaplan retained some of the higher order terms in the orbital wave velocity components and in the
foil attack angle . He showed the first-order term to be proportional to w
and two higher terms to be proportional to w and to uw. Since the latter terms
are much smaller than the first order term, they were neglected in the present analysis. * Thus the lift on a restrained foil in waves is equivalent to the lift on a
foil in an infinite fluid (no free surface) which is oscillating with a vertical velocity w0 . This is the assumption made by Kemp3 and Leehey5 in a completely linear
theory. Their results are identical to Kaplan's first order term. Kaplan notation
is used in the present study but only first order terms are considered in the theore-tical development.
The linearized, two-dimensional, unsteady lift force due to sinusoidalwaves of small slope acting on a restrained hydrofoil submerged to a depth h has the form
LK= Re c'p b Vw e1Wt [J0(v)

(6)where Re denotes the real part of the expression,
c' is the slope of the lift versus angle of attack curve (c' = 2ir in two-dimensional flow),
b is the semi-chord,
z' is the dimensionless wave frequency,
k is the reduced frequency of encounter,
J0 (u) and J1 (u) are Bessel functions of the first kind, and
C(k) is the Theodorsen function which has real and imaginary parts F(k) and G(k) , respectively.
*Ogilrie points out that a nonlinear term in ua5 becomes important for moderately large steady angles of attack»0

(21)DISCUSSION
The experimental data have been analyzed in termsof both unsteady and quasi-steady theory. There was some question in the preliminary analysis as to
the correct value of the lift slope parameter c' . In steady flow, the lift slope
of a finite span hydrofoil with aspect ratio A has the theoretical value
2ir
- i + 2/A
(22)Since the experimental foil had an aspect ratio of 6. 25, the theoretical value of c'
was 4. 76. This compares reasonably well with the steady-state value of 4. 01 mea-sured in the calm water tests. The influence of the end plates and proximity of the
free surface could be responsible for the observed deviation. Therefore c' was
given the experimental value 4.01 in the analysis.
In the unsteady analysis, no fixed value of c' could be found which would follow the trends of the data. This can be seen by the solid curve in Figure
la.
The experimental data indicate eitherthat e'
is a function of the wave frequencyy or that there is an additional dependence on y which is not included in Equation [161 . In an attempt to fit a curve through the experimental points, it was
as-sumed that c' varies linearly with
C' = c0 + c1p
Values of c0 and e1 were
determined by fitting Equation [16] to the data by themethod of least squares. This semi-empirical relation is shown as the dashed curve in Figure la.
The dimensional data in Tables 2 through 5 have been reduced to nondimen-sional form in terms of lift coefficient, Froude number, and dimensionless fre-quency parameters in Tables 6 through 9. Although Froude number is not an in-dependent parameter in the unsteady analysis, this was the only parameter which was held constant in the experiments. Therefore the analysis has been made for constant Froude number which is a function of p and k
Figure 1 shows the head sea data for F2b = 2. 11 and h/2b = 1. 06 plotted
as functions of the wave frequency y . The points are drawn with different
sym-bols which are indicative of the value of k/v . Theoretical unsteady curves are
drawn for constant e' and for varying c' on the same graph. The variation in k/v is marked off in appropriate intervals on these curves. It is seen that by forcing the theoretical curve to pass through the points, the values of k/p are pre-ducted with reasonable accuracy.
The quasi-steady analysis in which c' = 4.01 gives values of the CL b/a which are several times as large as the measured values. Therefore this curve
is not recorded on Figure la. Neither the unsteady theory nor the quasi-steady theory predicts the experimental phase relationships. This poor agreement is shown in Figure lb.
Figure 2 shows the head sea data for h/2b = 2. 0 and F2b = 2. 09. These
data were confined to such a narrow band of reduced wave frequencies that itwas not possible to fit a curve through the points. Since the Froude number was nearly the same as that used in Figure 1, coefficients were computed using the
same e'
in the unsteady theory. The agreement is fairly good but does not prove that e'is a function of F2b only. For this particular submergence, the quasi-steady
theory comes into better agreement with the experimental results; see Figure 2a. Again, the phase relationships are poorly predicted.
Figures 3 and 4 show the variation of CL b/a as a function of z-' in the
following seas. The phase angles are not plotted because q was approximately
ir /2, the quasi-steady value. Both the unsteady and the quais-steady analysis
are presented in these figures.
r
CONCLUDING REMARKSThe data presented here represent only a limited range in the pertinent non-dimensional parameters. However, they are sufficient to show that quasi-steady theory cannot be applied to predictthe loads or phase angles. Also, the unsteady lifting line theory is grossly inadequate. A valid analysis should account for the
variation in lift slope with wave frequency and also give better prediction of phase
differences between the unsteady loads and the wave motions.
The lifting line theory indicates that there are only three independent
dimen-sionless parameters: k, t' , and h/2b . (The Froude number F2b is a function
of k and
uì .) Any future test program should be designed to vary only one of these independent variables at a time.PERSONNEL AND ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
