What is Rudder Experimental Data about?

The most common rudder and control surface design methods use the freestream or open-water characteristics for the control surface being considered. Suitable corrections are applied to the inflow velocity and direction to take account of the influences of the adjacent hull and/or propeller. These methods are described and discussed further in Chapter 8, Detailed Rudder Design. Extensive free-stream characteristics for the principal control surface types, derived mainly by experiment, have been published and these are reviewed, presented and discussed in Section 6.3.In the case of a rudder working downstream of a propeller, an alternative and more physically correct approach is to treat and test the rudder plus propeller as a unit. This approach is discussed further in Chapter 8, Detailed Rudder Design. Several experimental and theoretical investigations have been carried out, and published experimental data for such cases are reviewed and presented in Section 6.4.
