Abstract

An approach is presented to the investigation of spatial flow past an submerged hydrofoil in the presence of a ponderable liquid. The approach uses the method of singularities, which represents the influence of the free surface of the water by the influence of an unbounded layer of sources. The linear solution is completely found for the problem of determining the wave production and downwash behind an submerged hydrofoil with given parameters of the eddy system. An estimate is made of the influence on the flow characteristics of nonlinear factors associated with the change produced by the wave production in the form of the free eddies leaving the hydrofoil. The distribution of the downwash in the flow behind the hydrofoil is found and recommendations given for the arrangement of a hydrofoil system with positive interaction of the elements. The results of the calculation are compared with experiment.
