Dimensionless Numerical Approaches for the Performance Prediction of Marine Waterjet Propulsion Units

One of the key issues at early design stage of a high-speed craft is the selection and the performance prediction of the propulsion system because at this stage only few information about the vessel are available. The objective of this work is precisely to provide the designer, in the case of waterj...
