Model tests of fast units on the open waters of Jeziorak Lake
Abstract
Paper presents model tests of fast units carried out in the years 1956-2000 in the Experimental Centre of the Gdansk University of Technology Shipbuilding Institute on Jeziorak Lake. The experimental tests included single- and twin-hull hydrofoils, amphibian hovercraft, side-wall hovercraft and also speedboats and SWATH type catamarans. The aim of those tests was to acquire data for developing the design and safety criteria as well as computer programs for predicting the hydrodynamic properties of fast units. The gathered experimental material was used in the theoretical studies, publications and conference papers.
