Lundin, G. Olander, R. Sahlberg and E. Werner Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden C. Finnsgård and A. Persson Chalmers University of Technology and SSPA Sweden AB, Sweden M. Brown and J McVeagh SSPA Sweden AB, Sweden Downloaded from http://onepetro.org/jst/article-pdf/3/01/1/2205397/sname-jst-2018-06.pdf by guest on 26 September 2021 Manuscript received January 16, 2018; accepted September 11, 2018. Abstract: Because of the successful application of hydrofoils on the America's Cup catamarans in the past two campaigns the interest in foiling sailing craft has boosted. Foils have been fitted to a large number of yachts with great success, ranging from dinghies to ocean racers. An interesting question is whether one of the slowest racing boats in the world, the Optimist dinghy, can foil, and if so, at what minimum wind speed. The present paper presents a comprehensive design campaign to answer the two questions. The campaign includes a newly developed Velocity Prediction Program (VPP) for foiling/non-foiling conditions, a wind tunnel test of sail aerodynamics, a towing tank test of hull hydrodynamics and a large number of numerical predictions of foil characteristics. An optimum foil configuration is developed and towing tank tested with satisfactory results. The final proof of the concept is a successful on the water test with stable foiling

  • Full Scale Measurements on a Hydrofoil International Moth the 19
    THE 19th CHESAPEAKE SAILING YACHT SYMPOSIUM ANNAPOLIS, MARYLAND MARCH 2009 Full Scale Measurements on a Hydrofoil International Moth Bill Beaver, U.S. Naval Academy Hydromechanics Lab, Annapolis, MD John Zseleczky, U.S. Naval Academy Hydromechanics Lab, Annapolis, MD ABSTRACT The International Moth class has experienced a resurgence of interest and publicity associated with the adoption of hydrofoils and the performance improvements these foil have brought. This paper documents a series of full scale tow tests intended to characterize some of the major parameters impacting the performance of a foiling Moth. Specifically: • the lift and drag was measured for of various home built and commercially available T-foil configurations, • the hydrodynamic drag of a hull was measured at various displacements, and • the aerodynamic forces (side force and drag) were measured for a hull and racks. It is hoped that this data will be useful for future designers to further push the state of the art. NOMINCLATURE daggerboard lifting foil typically has a trailing edge flap that is activated by a surface sensing wand at the bow to β Apparent course between VA and V λ Leeway angle provide altitude control.
