A note on results of PMM-tests with two models of low LîB_rat:io
with emphasis on frequency effects and a comparison with straight
line oblique towing.
by : Ir. C.C. Glansdorp and J.G.L. Pjjfers
Abstract :
The results of PÌ4M tests with two models with low L/B t are
given. Special emphasis is given on frequency effects and a comparison
is made with the results of straight line oblique towing.
Introduction
During the last decade several attempts have been made to calculate
the hydrodynainic derivatives in a horizontal plane for low frequencies.
To this end generally simple flow concepts are used for the calculation together with the results of low aspect ratio theory. It is important to have some experimental information with respect to the effect of
frequency upon the derivatives. On the other hand it is important to provide experimental data with respect to the straight line oblique towing derivatives; these data can be compared with the corresponding
swaying derivt ives.
A series 60, CB .70 model was adopted with two L/B_ratios and 5.5.
In the near future the same experiments will be performed with models with
higher L/B_ratios, and higher model speeds.
In this note the results of PMM-tests for swaying and yawing are given

Pie1imenaxy reaulta of aytematic horizontal oscillation teats are
presented. The ultimate purpose of these teste is to provide
experimen-tal. data about the influence of L/jo on the linear hydrodynamio

The theory of Jacobs with some emperieal allowances has been applied
to the models in order to compare the theoretical values with the
1. Introduotion
During the last decade aevera]. attoinpts have been made to
calcu-late the hydrodynamic derivatives in a borizonial plane for low
frequencies. To this end generally, simple flow conoepte are used for
the ealoulation together with the resulte of 1cv aspect ratio theory.
In this oase especially the distribution of this thickness aver the
lateral plane is important for merica1 allowances on the the
oreti-os]. calculated derivatives. Therefore, it was decided to provide
experimental values about the influence of the L/B-ratio
A series 60, L/B - 7, Cj

parent model. The whole range of L/B_rattoe is covered by 6 modela, L/B 4, 5.5,7, 10, 20,00.

a paper in which he suggested
the same factor which has nearLy the ease magnitude.
With respect to the center of lift force Xp/L which is assumed by Jacobø
at the center of the lateral plane and
therefore differs obly slightlywith the center of gravity generally, it io asatmied that this center
of lift force is acting yoU behind the center of gravity. This
coin-cides to a certain extent with measurements of Martin on slender bodies
of revelution. It is probable that the same reasoning as given by 3acoba
holds here, bu.t it is possible that the extent of eddy ganeratien along
the forward part of the keel is not so
high as assumed, so that thecenter of lift force is not located torward of the center of gravity.
