A Graphical Method for Interpolation of Specific Flying Boats from Collapsed Results of General Tests of Flying-boat-hull Models
Some Systematic Model Experiments of the Bow-spray Characteristics of Flying-boat Hulls Operating at Low Speeds in Waves
A collection of the collapsed results of general tank tests of miscellaneous flying-boat-hull models
Presented here are the summary charts of the collapsed results of general tank tests of about 100 flying boat hull models. These summary charts are intended to be used as an engineering tool to enable a flying boat designer to grasp more quickly the significance of various hull form parameters as they influence his particular airplane. The form in which the charts are prepared is discussed in some detail in order to make them clearer to the designer. This is a data report, and no attempt has been made to produce conclusions or correlations of the usual sort. However, some generalizations are put forward on the various methods in which summary charts may be used
