-ABSTRACT
The breaking wave in front of blunt bow displacement ships causes most of the wave resistance of such ships. A theoretical
analysis of the two-dimensional gravity free-surface flow past a blunt body of semi-infinite length, representing a first
ap-proximatiori of the breaking wave, is presented. The jet model has been selected for the representation of the bpw momentuni
loss.
The equation of flow are solved by a high draft Froude
number expansion. The velocity distribution, the jet thickness and the associated drag are computed by the aid of inner and
outer expansions. The results are compared with Baba's
(1969)
towing-tank tests.1-IYDRONAUTICS, Incorporated
-2-In the case of a gravity flow with free-surface, the bow stagnation, also ignored by the linearized theory, is associated
with a more complex phenomenon. The pressure increase is trans-lated into the free-surface rise near the bow. At small FrT this rise is insignificant and the whole potential energy is
recovered. As FrT increases the free-surface departs from the unperturbed level and becomes steep, losses its stability and
a breaking wave appears before the bow. Energy is dissipated
locally there and the resistance is augmented correspondingly. As FrT increases further the free-surface jet starts t climb up on the bOw before returning to the water body.
Although the existence of a breaking wave at the bow of
sufficiently blunt ships may be easily recognized from
ordi-nary pictures, the problem has been studied systematically in laboratory conditions only recently by Baba (1969) in connec-tion with the development of bg tankers. A brief analysis of his results is given in the following section.
In a previous report(Dagan and Tulin,
1969)
we have shownhow the nonlinear effects appear in an appropriate asymptotic
expansion for blunt ships. There we concentrate on the devel-opment of the theory for the two-dimensional case of a developed
breaking wave.
The study of the two-dimensional problem is a necessary
step in the development of a theory for typical three-dimensional
ship bows. It permits a gain in Insight at the expense.Of
rela-tively simple computations. Moreover, it may be applied in a first approximation to sufficiently flat ships as will be shown
HYDRONAUTICS, Incorporated
In our previous report we have been able to predict the instability of the free-surface in the two-dimensional case by using a small FrT consistent expansion and Taylor's stability
criterion. The study of the high FrT regime (corresponding
to a developed breaking wave) is replaced here by an improved analysis.
It is worthwhile to point out the difference between the problem studied here and that of planing. In the case of a
planing plate (Squire (1957)) the solutions are based on an
expansion in which FrL is of order of unity while the slope is the smal.l parameter. The first order solutions, expressed by
a Fourier series, is poorly convergent when FrL becomes small.
In other words the conventional planing theory is valid for a
ratio between dynamic lift and buoyancy of order one. Due to the existence of the detachment condition at the trailing edge, the submersion of the planing plate cannot be assigned
before-hand.
Here we are dealing with ships moving at small FrL such that the lift/buoyancy ratio is small and the draft is
prac-tically independent of FrL. Dynamic effects may be important near the bow, but they are localized there. For this reason
we consider here a semi-infinite body (FrL - 0) and, obviously,
disregard the trailing edge condition, but assign a-priori the
shape of th,e body beneath the unperturbed level. This way the
bow field is accurately described, while the pressure
distri-bi..ttion along the body far sternwise is eventually distçrted.
Since we are primarily interested in the bow nonlinear effects,

-BRIEF ANALYSIS OF BkBA'S EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS (BABA,
1969)
Baba' has carried put a series of towing-tank tests with three geosims of a tanker With Cb. = 0.77. The total resistance has been measured äonvent'ionally, while the wave and frictional
resistances have been measured separately by wave and wake
sur-veys, respectively.
In the ballast condition, and in a lesser manner in the full load condition, an, important breaking wave developed at the bow (Figure la). The energy loss, and the associated
re-sistance, have been ingeniously measured by a wake survey near
thebow. The experimental results from the three geosiths may
be.surnmarized as follows,'fdr the ballast conitions:
(i) The breaking wave resistance followed closely
Fróude similitude.
(ii). The breaking wave inceptiOn occurred at FrL = 0.16 or FrT 1.15.
(iii) At the maximum FrL Q.2k considered, the breaking wave resistance was 18 percent.of
the total resistance while the wave
resis-tance was of order of 6 percent. At smaller FrL the ratio between the breaking wave and wave resistance as even larger.
HYDRONAIJTICS, Incorporated
-5-Baba has suggested a model of a one dimensional hydraulic jump as a crude approximation for the breaking wave, as if the flow was uniform and limited by a horizontal rigid wall at the
ship bottom elevation.
To compare his model with the experiments, Baba has assumed that the breaking wave is normal to the direction of motion (Figure ib) and has estimated its effective lateral
extent as roughly half of the beam B'/2. By dividing the measured energy 1os with this length, the two-dimensional
equivalent of the drag coefficient takes the value
C = DT/0.5pUT2TT 0.08. This value has been dbtaned in
ballast conditions for the maximum speed considered (FrL 0.2k,
FrT 1.70, Figure 1).
THE JET MODEL OF TiE BREAKING WAVE (ouTER EXPANSION) (a) General
We consider now a two-dimensional gravity flow past a semi-infinite body (Figure 2a) with a sufficiently large FrT such that a developed breaking wave exists before the bow.
In treating this problem we face two major difficulties: (1) The representation of the breaking wave, a zone of highly turbulent flow and energy dissipation, by an.ideal flow model
and (ii) the solution of a nonlinear problem by an asymptotic
expansion. As for (i) we adopt the jet model, well-known from
planing theories, su,ch that the momentum loss in the jet repre-sents that of the brealçing wave and we neglect, as usual, the
IiYDRONAUTICS, Incorporated
returning flow. To make the problem nalytica1i treatable we use. a high ErT expansion, i.e.. an expansion in which the
ideal free-surface rise near the stagt'iatibn region tends to
infinity. . The jet model is consistent With this t-ype of ex-pans ion, but is a poor phsica1 representation of the breaking wave, since in the real case FT is not so large and the jet rises only moderately before its coilpse.
As in the treatment or other nonlinear problefis we can.. only hope that our asinptotic 'esults will
be vali& foa
sufficiently wide range of FrT in Spite of the dealizations of the model.(b) The Exact Equa.tions
Using a p'ocêdure followed in similar .proiem in the past
(Tulin

we rep1.ce the body by an unknown pressure distribution

The discrepnc.y between the two figures may stem from
different causes: theasymptotic nature of the solution, the assumption of total bluntness adopted because of the
lack of information on the. bow shape details, and perhaps
the most important is, the thee-dimensionality of th flow,
Babats equivalent tvio-dimensional scheme (Figure la) being a rather crude apprOximation. .
SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS
The 'two-dimensional free-surface gravity flow past a
semi-infinite body has 'been solved by the tiethod of matched asymptotic expansiOns. 'The'l'iriearizd outer problem has' been solved by using the Wiener-Hopf technique. The solution has
been carried indetailfor a completely blunt body,i.e., a
body which at. first order degenerates Into a box-like shape profile. In this case the Quter solution is singular at
first order near the bow, and the bow singularity is
repre-sented in the inner nonlinear solution by a jet. The jet
thickness and the associated bow drag have been computed. The method permits the derivation of the solution for other
shapes, like blunt round bows or fine shapes,. The bow singu-larity appears in higher order terms in these cases.
HYDRONAUTICS, Incorporated
The present approach has to be extended in some way to
the case of shi bows by taking into account the effect of
sweepthg back. This problem, as well as the treatment of different two-dimensional bow shapes, will be studed in

13. ABSTRACT
The breaking wave in front of blunt bow displacement ships causes
most of the wave resistance of such ships. A theoretical analysis of the two-dimensional gravity free-sxrface flow past a blunt body of
semi-infinite length, representing a first approximation of the break-ing wave, is presented. The jet model has been selected for the
repre-sentation of the bow momentum loss.
The equation of flow are solved by a high draft Froude number
expansion. The velocity distribution, the jet thickness and the
associated drag are computed by the aid of inner and outer expansions.
