    HYDROMECHANICS FOR DEVELOPMENT OF SPRINT CANOES FOR THE OLYMPIC GAMES 1 Tomasz J. Bugalski 1 Ship Hydromechanics Division, Ship Design and Research Centre S.A., PL-80-392 Szczecinska 65, Gdansk, Poland, [email protected] ABSTRACT The current paper focuses on evolution of hull form of sprint canoes from the Olympic Games in Berlin (1936) to the Olympic Games in Beijing (2008) and the influence of hydrodynamics aspects on design of sprint canoes. The paper describes the process of the Olympic canoes design and optimization, carried out by the Ship Design and Research Centre (CTO, CTO S.A.) in Gdansk and the Plastex Composite PPH (Plastex) in Warsaw –the renowned manufacturer of sport boats. The existing canoes (used as a starting point) and the newly designed ones were analysed with the use of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods, simplified potential methods and tested experimentally. The paper concludes the final results during Olympic Games competitions. HYDRODYNAMICS OF SPRINT CANOES AS A SEMI –DISPLACEMENT SHIPS The canoes sprint started to exist on the Olympic Games program in Berlin in 1936. The kayaks and sprint canoes shapes were changing and those changes could be divided to three periods – eras: • In the first period there were formed the regulations and principles from the ICF formation to the Olympic games in London in 1948. • The era of boats which were made of the wooden plywood, which also could be named Samson’s because of the name of main designer. • In the third period slender boats were made on the base of carbon-fibre composites.

  • Sport Quillow
    Sport Quillow Product: The Sport Quillow is an ultra soft and lightweight micro fiber towel which folds up into its very own, convenient pouch. Highly absorbent and super-fast-drying, the Sport Quillow is perfect for an active lifestyle. Industry: Sports: Founded 28 years ago False Creek Racing Canoe Club (FCRCC), is a non-profit, multi- disciplinary paddling club, featuring training and racing programs in the paddle sports of dragon boat, outrigger canoe, and Olympic sprint canoe and kayak. With the assistance of two part-time staff, the club is run entirely by member volunteers. The mission of the club is to offer paddling opportunities to anyone who wishes to achieve excellence through training and racing. Objective: The False Creek Women’s Distance Outrigger Team were looking to fund their annual trip to Hawaii. The team was looking for a unique item to sell as part of a fundraiser. The product needed to be something unique that would be useful and practical and appeal to the rest of the False Creek Racing Canoe Club. Use: The Sport Quillows were selected and posted to the club website so that all club members could buy them. Members loved that the Sport Quillows fold out into a full size towel, but also fold into their own pocket and are the perfect size to fit in team bags. A few were kept on hand by the team in Hawaii to use as thank you gifts for various clubs for the use of their boats, for escort boat owners and for others who went the extra mile to help out.
