Abstract

Unsteady resistance, heave force, pitch moment and free-surface elevations for DTMB 5512 at steady forward speed and in regular head waves are investigated with different measurement systems for a fairly wide range of test conditions in the IIHR towing tank. Test data are procured for validation of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes computational fluid dynamics codes and for understanding the physics of unsteady ship hydrodynamics. The second part of the paper presents the measurement results and discussions.
