Q-1. INTRODUCTION
A model of the yacht BAYBEA was tested at the MIT towing tank
facility in 1967 This mode]. was tested in calm water by systematically
varying the speed, heél, aúd leeway angles and measuring the resulting
side and dag forces. The ranges of these parameters are given in Table 1.
Full Scale Speed Heel Angle Leeway Angle 4 to 8 knots o to 3Ó degrees O to 6 degrees in steps of 2 degrees Table i
Thé forces resulting from these tests were ubjecte4 to a least
squares processing, deletion of dubious data and scaling. tO tu-l-1 size.
The product is two thirteen term polynomials, one eàch for side and
drag force, as a functIon of boat speed, leeway, and heel ang:e. These
polynomials are given in Appendix I.
With the hull force known, it is necessary to have performance
data to estiate the sail forces required to stablish an eqúilibrii.
between the aerodynamic and hydrodynamic forces.
In Janúary, 1974, a navigation/performance data form was prepared
for distribtitiôn tb all boats participat-ing in the 1974 SORC. The format
of these log sheets is given in Appendix 2.
The information requested included readings of onboard instruments, sea state, weather and current estimations, sail suit carrie4, as well
as time and position f ór each entry. Navigators were reeted tö make
frequent entrIes describing all stable sailing cpn4itipps encountered
so as to produce a large sample of data that could be procéssed with
importance vo aid in estimating the effect of sea state on performance
and to assist iti Synoptic correlations of racing conditons. To date,
MIT has received three completed race logs from the SORC fleet.
The SORC was chosen mainly because it coinçided conveniently with
our project progress and because of the high quality of competition.
It was intended originally to subject the entiré SORC data to a
statis-tical analysis in order to obtain --eflabe iMo at-ion concerning sail
forces and yacht per-forances. In der to do this, was necessary
to know not only the performance of each boat (speed and hee. for a given wind), but alsO the weather condition at a g;iven time and the relative position of each boat at the time the log entries were made. The log sheets were therefore prepared in such a way as to permit all
this inEo±matiQn to be written down. Since only three logs have been
receive4 by MIT after thê races, t was impossible to perform any
statis-tibal analysis, and it has been therefore decided tó evaluate only one boat, BAYBEA, using analytical and numerical techniques, rather than
státistical. Thus, only the information concerning the BAYBEA speed and
heel angle and the wind speed and angle were utilized in this procedure. The reason for choosing .BAYBEA is that her hull hydrodynamic forces described above had been known.
The procedure for obtaining f aired values of the sail force coef-ficiénts is described in the section entitled SAIL COEFFICIENTS PROGB»1. A second program, PERFORHANCE PRIcTION, accepts as input these sail
coefficients as well as a given true wind angle and spéêd, and calculates the requisite heel, leeway angle, atid boat speed necessary to establish
equilibrium. Both computer programs were written in FORTRAN V, using
bcth the lime Sharing Option and tha Bathh System of MIT's Information Processing Center.
Figure 1 explains thé coordinate system used throughout this report as well as the symbols which are explained in the nomenclature.
Note t-bat thé coordinate SyStem is aligned with the direction of
motion of the yacht. This- differs from the direçtion of the fore and
aft ëënterl-iúe of the hull by the amount of the leeway angle.
It is important for the reader to keep in mind that the quantitative results obtained from the study were obtained from a very limited set of
data. The results should therefôré be regarded as a demonstration of thè
method of ànalysïs, and as a réasonablè gross ëharcterzation Of sailing performance.

2. SAIL FORCE COEFFICIENTS PROGRAM
This program computes upright, f aired values of the sail driving and side forces coefficients ät all points of sailing in the yacht
velocity frame of reference. The computation is. based on full size
logged entries, results of towing tank tests and the IOR III measuremens. The yachtts name and bR certificate ntbet äre read in as are its1 righting moment, estimated heeling moment arm, sail area and polynomiaiJ
coefficients of drag and side force as determined by previous towing
tank tests. The righting moment used is the bR corrected righting
moment (RMC); the heeling moment arm is estimated by the empIrical formula h = .45(I+DM); and sai]. area Ls defined for all log entries as a constant equai to thé area of the fore triangle plus mainsail area less roacb. The polynomial coefficients were taken from reference (1) which contains
the orIginal BAYBEA tank test data. The ethodology behind these
poly-1
nomials is fully described n [1]. The polynomial coefficients as well
as-theIORIII data for BAYBEA are given in the Appendix. Th.e following
are the values of the six IOR parameters used in the calculation:
Raw log entries of boat speed, vS , indicated apparent wind speed,
vA , indicated apparent wind angle, w , and heel O , are inputted to
the ca].culat-ion sequence..
The side force, H which is a horizontal veòtor perpendictilar to the
boat speed, is found frOm the transverse equilibrium condition shown in
Fig. 1.
FR h / cosO =. M O
Next, the leeway angle, À , corresponding to FR , is found from the
assumed linear reiat-ionship between the side force and the leeway angle
(Fig. 2). -. 57.13 i = .19.93 DM = 7.29 P = 53.18 E = 17.5 RMC 2129.5 (F11-F) X = 4 (F4-F0)
where F0 and F4 are the side forces at A = 0° and A 40 respectIvely,
found by calling twice the subroutine POLS, which computes side force from a given polynomial coefficients set, boat speed, heel angle, and lee-way angle.
Fig. 2 as adopted from Fig. 10 of [1] based on the BAYBEA tardc
tests. It indicates that, for example, at 100 heel and 6 knot speed,
the side force increases ¿lmost linearly as the leeway angle increases. For larger values of heel the relationship Is not quite linear, but because .f the scatter of data poíts. th±ough which the polynomials were originally fitted, and because the plynomial representation of the hüll
forces was unreliable for leeway angles greater than 60, it was decided
to linearize side force with respect to leeway angle. A = 6° was the
largest leeway angle at which t1e model has been tested All coefficients
in the sidè force polynomial that are nonlinear in A have been
there-fore set to zero*.
the wind angle,, w , indicated by the masthead indicator is not the
actual aparent wind angle , which is defined as the angle which the
vecor si of the boat and true wind velocities makes with the boat velocity.
Thre correct±ons are made to w in order to obtain The first
cor-recidn is due to sail interference. It assunes màst heád anemometer
place-ment and is abitraily defined by the transforniat-ion,
(180°-22°) (w-wmin. )
- 180-w
min
In effect it shifts the lowest indïcate wind angle wrnin (which happe.ed
to be 250) to 220, causes greatest corrections for close-hauled sa:iiing,
and decreases linearly to zero for rúnning. With this correction, the
spùd made good values are ore reasonable. Comparable corrections to
wind speed were not rnàde.
The next correction results from adding the leeway angle A to w' ,
and, is necessary in order to obta:i the apparent wind angle relative to
the boat velocity direction, rather than boat centerline. The last correct-ion
*Tbjs 'is a matter which has caused concern for at last the last decade
[2], and still appears unresolved Tank predicted side forces, coupled
with full scale static stability and obsèrved heel angles frequently
result in predicted leeway angles as high as 8 degrees There are many
who question whether such large angles are actually encountered, and
accurate full-scale measurèments sti 1 appear to be lacking.

c and are the sail force coefficients calculated for each logged
entr but uncorrected yet for heel. The sail area In this normalization
process has bêen kept constant for ali points of sailing. For a given
true wind strength (and representatIve sea state) the actual sail area
and disposition will vary greatly depending on the point of sailing. The
convention has been adopted that this variation be absorbed into the
coef-ficients themselves as the forces vary. That this is not altogether
arbi-trary can be seen if it is remembered that the nature of sail forces on
-a spinn-aker -are completely different from those on -a close-h-auled jib
regardless of the fact that their areas are different However, if we
maintain the poiñt of sailing but now vary the wind strength it is obvious
10
that sail suits and shapes will change.
It is reasonable to expect that the sail force coefficients
them-selves vary with heel. This dependence is in addition to the cosO
variation that the boat centered side force expetiences. At = 27°
there happened to be 9 separate log entries supplied. For these points
the coefficients c and c were calculated and plotted in Figs.. 3
and 4, together with the GThbBACK coefficients, taken from [5]. The
plotted points indicate a reduction in the magnitu4e of the coefficient
with heel. With the limited data available, a straight line least
squares fit was considered satisfactory as an interim measure. For both
c. and.
cp lines the slopes are gïven by CRÒ and RO . The pointson the Obtained lines corresponding to O = 00 are called the upright
sail force coefficients:

Wé can note the similarity of the BAYBEA coefficients heel dependence to
the GCRACK coefficients. The latter are smaller than the BAYBEA
coef-fcients by approx:Lthately 22%. This can be explained by the. fact that
the sail camber designed in the

The vàlues of c and cH0 are plotted next versus apparent wind
angle, $ . A modified least squares spline fit program called SIJPRDK
was used to fair these pints. SUPRDK differs frdm thé standard spline
fit in t-hät the resulting curve is required to pass through the end
points and may at these points have specified slopes, as in a
clamped-clamped bean. Further program flexibility is available through
place-ment of "ducks" which stat-ist-ically weight the data in the program for
éhosen abscissa values. Dücks weé placed at 520,
100°,
ànd 148° apparentwind angles.
The logged wind angles have a rather random distribution along the
apparent wind angles axis. It was decided to fit the coefficients curves
in the range of angles
ß = 20°
to 180° , i.e., to cover the entirerange of points of sailing. The following procedure was applied in order
to find the values of CR and CH as well as theït slopes at = 20°
It is based on the assumption that the lift-drag ratio sts constant in a widé rangé of closé-hauled angles due to adjustments of the sheets for
a g:iven apparent wind direction,. Since 9 log entfies were available at
w 27° it wàs pôssible to calculate a relatively reliable value of
the lift-dtag ratio at this angle. For these 9 entries the following
average valües were found:
(27°) = .667
(27°) = 2.332
(27°) = 19.4
(27°) = 4.00
The apparent wind angle resulting from these averages is:
(27°) = tan'[tan(w27Ø) + 4.0°) cos 19.4°) = 26.6° where (180°-22°)(27°-25°) 22° - 4° (27°) - (l80°-25°) + - 2 14 1

The lift and drag sail force coefficients ere deteïmined by resolution
of boat side and drag forces with respect to apparelit wind angle.

This lift/drag ratio is slightly more than the rule of thi.imb value (approx.=5)
claimed for modern ocean racers. The small data sample prevents placing
too muh significance on this value.

3. PERFORNANCE PREDICTION PROGRAN
The previous program gives a continuous curve representing upright
sail force coefficients as a function of relative wind angle.* Given
a true wind angÍe. and speed, this progra uses an iterat-Ive method to
achieve hydrodynanu.c and aerodynamic equilibrium Side force is assumed
to be Linéar in leeway. The. region below the range of the original towing
tank polynomial (VB ( 4 knots) is approximated by a straight line ** For
VB > 8 knots, the. extrapolated valües as given by the polynomials were taken to be accurate.
The flow chart of this program is presented on. the page 30. The Performance Prediction Program is initialized by reading in values that. pertain to the yacht itself: NA, ÇERT, RNC1 SA, YCE, SPOL,
DPOL., and CX and CY for APPA = 20 to 180°. The iteration dummy variab].es
VBASS and OLDALE are given initial values and the iteration counter, KÖNTRL,
-is zerOed. Particular values of true wind angle, TWA, and speed, VT, are
inputted Apparent wind speed, VA, and angle, APPA, are computed by calls
to subroutine TRI.
The first portion. of the program puts the yacht in heel equilibrium. The heel angle is incremented until the heeling moment is equal to the
righting moment If the heel angle exceeds thirty-nine degrees, the
program teinates éxecution, print.s a warning mess4ge and requests another. valüe fr true wind angle and speed..
The next part of the program puts hull drag and side forces into
equilibrium with sail forces by adjustments of speed
and
leeway. Leeway,.ALEE, is zeroed and the boat speed, VB, is adjusted from the initial value
VBASS = 2 knots until the hull drag equals the longitudinal sail force
*The syiñbols used in this section have intentionally been left in their original form as computer program variable names for ready identification with the flow chart enclosed.
**Ä straight line was used here, rather than a parabola as a temporary
expedient to avoid a large discontith.tity in slope at 4 knots. The present
tank test polynomial scheme is deficient in not forcing the proper behavior
at low speeds We are presently developing an improved fitting technique
which will Overcome this problem.
18
---J--At this point, ALEE = O and HEEL remainè às ca1cu1atd previously.
Next, ALEE is adjusted so that hull side force equals sail side force.
If ALEE is not within a specified convergence tolerance, VB and AL
iterations are repeated assuming nôw the latest value of BEEL and ALEE
by adjusent of VB. When ALEE finally converges, VB is tested for
convergence. If VB has not converged, thé vélocl.ty iteration is
con-tinued until equilibrium is attained. Presently, the convergence
toler-ances are: ALEE: .05°; VR: 0.05 knots;
HEEL: Ö.O].°.
If the number of iterations exceeds a specified value, an error
message is generated and another true wind is read in. Similarly,
exécution Is stopped if VB, HEEL or ALEE exceed specified upper limits,
which are presently: VB<l3 kts,
HEEL39°, ALEE0°.
The values of the hull forces are given as continúous fúnctions
of HEEL, ALEE and VB. Sail förce coefficients, CX and CY, are given
:j discrete steps for apparent wind angles between 20 and 190 degrees.
Since the sail force
coefficient
curves were found à spinethrough "experimental" points, it should be no surpr:íse to f mcl that when a true wind angle and speed, corresponding to logged data, are
inputted, the exact same boat speed, heel and leeway .re not necessarily
reacquired. Table 4 gives the predicted values of the Speed, heel,
leeway, speed made good, and forcés hích result from the true wind
speed and àng].é values corresponding to those in Table 2.
The differences in values are due to scatter in CXO and CYO. Compare
thé discrete CXO,CYO values with the CX,cY curves.
Similarly, the PERFORMANCE PROGRAM can be used tO calculate Speed
polar diagrams. Speed polars were computed for true wind speeds of 5,
7.5, 10,12.5, and 15 imots. The calculation of VMG waS done simu1taneoùSly.
By inspection, the best speed made good to windward for a given wind speed
can be deteinfd. The results are shown in Fig. 8 and in Table 5.
It should be remembered that all caicülations are pàrformed using
a "stretched" apparent wind. To unstretch this angle is siply a question
of transform ng the angle APPA back to WINA by the f ôrmula on pagel U
tu addition to the BAYBEA performance predictions, some interesting
increased by 10%, and the other with RNC (stability) increased by 10%. The output of these computations is in Tables 6 and 7, respectively.
As expected, the boat with the extra sail area sails significantly faster at low wind speeds, especially when beam reaching, and heels only slightly more, while the speeds ±ncreàse very little in strong winds. The second boat shows only a slight effect, in windward sailing, of the increased stability on the speed, in spïe of the decreased heel angle. These two calculations are examples of the application of the log data to
the handicapping problem. An analysis of these art-icu1ar changes in
relation to rating and time allowance systems -is not within the scope of this report.

KONTRL=KONTBL+lThe hull force polynomials were derived from calm water tests. Deviations from calm water were not considered in this report, even thotigh some degree of sea state obviously eiisted for all SORC data.
Sai]. shape, size, configuration and st-retch vary with wind strength. No dependence upon different wind speed regimés was introduced primarily
because of the modest data sample size. Prestimably with more data,
5ad.
force coefficients could be given explicit wind strength dependence.
Knowing this dependence, a "rigidt' upright sail force coefficient
cou.4
be determined.
The present technique for considering the effect of heel on sail
force coefficients is empirical at best. It does show remarkable
sim-ilarity to GCRACK (higher values, but approximately the same slope). In future work an improed formulation for the heel dependence básed o
aerodynamic theory
will
be applied.It is assumed that vesséls "using" these sail foce coefficients
will fly the "same" sail sûit for different relative wind angles
as
doesBAYBEA in the average case.. The nondimensionalization with respect tO
a fixed sail area demañds this.. Just as the sail area woùld change with
different relative winds, so do the nature of the sail and hydrodynic forces, not to mention the shifting locatiOns of the sail center of
effort and hull center of lateral resistance.
The apparent wind transformation (w to ß) along with the ii dal con ditions determined for cH,cR curves were applied to assure a reasonable
value of the maximum vMG direction. This wa based on the fact that the
lift-drag ratio stays constant for a wide range of the wind angles at a
close-hauled
sailing.
6. Since the SÓRC data did not include any entry for wind speeds
greater than 20 knots, and only a few of the entries were given for the true c±nd speeds greater than 15 knots, a prediction extrapolation of
the performance f ot such wind speeds would be unreliable. Therefore,
the highest true wind speed at which the prediction has been flade was 15 knots.
