Abstract

The invention discloses a variable-water-depth towing tank air-layer resistance reduction test device and method. A model to be tested is placed under the water in an experiment tank, and total resistance and local friction force of the model to be tested and advancing in the water are measured; the total resistance and local friction force of the model to be tested and advancing in the water under such state can be measured through an air supplier and an air injection device; the total resistance and local friction force of the model to be tested and advancing in the water after an air layer is diffused can stilled be measured after closing the air supplier and the air injection device; and in the process, an underwater camera system continuously records the influence of an underwater flow field. The test device and method are suitable for underwater navigation body and water surface ship model air injection resistance reduction resistance sea-keeping test; and the test technique can provide test foundation for the air-layer resistance reduction mechanism research and also can provide technical support for engineering application of a bubble boat.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of designing ship hydrodynamic tests, in particular to an air layer drag reduction test device and method for a variable water depth towing pool. Background technique

[0002] The existing air layer drag reduction test methods are divided into the air layer observation method in the circulating water pool and the air layer drag reduction measurement method in the dragged water pool. None of them can observe the shape of the air layer while measuring the total resistance and local friction force of jet drag reduction. And changes in water depth will also affect the air layer at the bottom of the model. A complete test system is required for the research on the drag reduction mechanism of the air layer in the variable water depth towed pool to realize the simultaneous progress of variable water depth, observation of the air layer at the bottom of the pool, and resistance measurement. At present, for this tec...
