Abstract

In the previous paper, the author proposed a new type of rudder with parallel auxiliary foils arranged to the both sides of the trailing edge of main rudder. This concept of using rear foils to obtain high lift performance is known among the field of aeronautical engineering as the circulating effect and recently applied to ship roll stabilizer fin. In this paper, it is reported that various model experiments such as open water test, behind propeller test and self-propelled free running test were conducted using the proposed rudder and compared with the conventional NACA0020 rudder. The result showed us that the newly developed rudder has a high lift performance at several fundamental trials.
