Description for Hydrodynamic Propulsion and Its Optimization
Hardcover. An extended version of Elements of Hydrodynamic Propulsion", this book treats many subjects in a more general way or with more far-reaching results. It is of use to naval architects and marine engineers whose work involves applying mathematics to propulsion problems, and applied mathematicians interested in hydrodynamics. Series: Fluid Mechanics and its Applications. Num Pages: 392 pages, biography. BIC Classification: TGMF; TTS. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 22. Weight in Grams: 730.
HYDRODYNAMIC PROPULSION AND ITS OPTIMIZATION ANALYTIC THEORY Hydrodynamic propulsion has been of major interest ever since craft took to the water. In the course of time, many attempts have been made to invent, develop, or to improve hydrodynamic propulsion devices. Remarkable achievements in this field were made essentially by experienced individuals, who were in need of reliable propulsion units such as paddle wheels, sculling devices, screw propellers, and of course, sails. The problem of minimizing the amount of input energy for a prescribed effective output was first investigated seriously at the beginning of this century. In 1919, BETZ presented a ... Read more
