Hydrodynamic characteristics of X-Twisted rudder for large container carriers

Hydrodynamic characteristics of X-Twisted rudder for large container carriers

This paper shows the numerical and experimental results about the hydrodynamic characteristics of X-Twisted rudders having continuous twist of the leading edge along the span. All the results were compared with those of the semi-balanced rudder. Calculation through the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stoke...
