I'm trying to understand how a displacement catamaran can seemingly violate the Froude's Law.� Once the boat speed reaches the wavelength of the transverse wave, the hull is stuck in the 'trough' between two wave peaks, and the boat is perpetually trying to climb out of that trough. Adding more power (for a displacement monohull) is futile at a certain point. Why is it that catamarans (and other slender boats) can seemingly defy Froude's Law? They create transverse waves too. And those waves are a function of length and speed - the physics still apply. catamaran speed boat ?. Add-on modules for a catamaran version of the amazing Speed Boat by Wersy. I'm not looking for speed or hydrodynamic because the project is an autonomous guided Arduino boat. The idea and the software development was set up. A catamaran (/?k?t?m??r?n/) (informally, a "cat") is a multi-hulled watercraft featuring two parallel hulls of equal size. It is a geometry-stabilized craft, deriving its stability from its wide beam, rather than from a ballasted keel as with a monohull boat. Catamarans typically have less hull volume, smaller displacement, and shallower draft (draught) than monohulls of comparable length. The two hulls combined also often have a smaller hydrodynamic resistance than comparable monohulls, requiring.

All boats create a transverse wave, which is perpendicular to direction of travel. That wave is a function of the waterline length of the hull and the speed of the boat. Froude identified the wave and the mathematics associated with it back in the 's.

Once the boat speed reaches the wavelength of the transverse wave, the hull is stuck in the 'trough' between two wave peaks, and the boat is perpetually trying to climb out of that trough. Adding more power for a displacement monohull is futile at a certain point.

Why is it that catamarans and other slender boats can seemingly defy Froude's Law? They create transverse waves too. And those waves are a function of length and speed - the physics still apply. So how can catamarans climb out of that trough? I understand that it's a function of displacement and hull slenderness, and I assume that the wave height a catamaran generates is much lower than a monohull's, but can someone explain the theoretical underpinnings of it?

Many thanks. Deering , Jul 20, Mr Efficiency , Jul 20, Ive never been one to accept the application of maths to the movement and actions of water to varying hull shapes. I think thats why they use so much tank testing as would I. I think this can be eloquently put when architects seem delighted when a new built vessel attains the speed designed.

Why such a surprise? Frosty , Jul 20, Ad Hoc , Jul 20, As velocity increases, Speed Boat Design Inc the crest of the bow wave is in front of the bow, and the stern is settling into the trough between the crests.

The bow is trying to climb up the face of a wave that gets steeper as more power is applied. At some point adding more power becomes futile and results in little increased velocity. As the speed-length ratio gets larger, much above 1. Or at least that's what I'm reading. So how can a 40 ft OK, 13m catamaran run efficiently above 10 kts?

Deering , Jul 21, Needless to say the Polynesians didn't worry their heads about the theory, but they found that slim hulls with fine entry don't push up the sort of transverse wave amplitude that creates the barrier you speak of. Mr Efficiency , Jul 21, Probably not.

But they weren't running 25 kts either. If we fail to do that, we don't progress much beyond log hulls, as efficient as they may have been for the Polynesians. I don't know how fast the Polynesians were going, but they amazed old Capn. Ad Hoc is your man, he's a catamaran expert.

So the multi-hull. The problem is then that skinny hulls don't carry much weight , so the boat will need to either be lighter , or longer , to carry the same load. At speed the fat boat uses most of its energy pushing water aside as it makes a failed attempt to climb its own bow wave. The skinny boat tops out when you run out of HP to pay for the skin friction. Want to go fast? The math is gnarly, though. The discussion gives some good insight into the relative importance of beam, thinness, and slenderness.

I don't know why. Google the following the wave resistance formula of J. Last edited: Jul 27, Alik , Jul 21, You must log in or sign up to reply here. Show Ignored Content. Similar Threads.
