Abstract
AbstractThe bow flow generated by a wide flat-bottomed ship moving in water of finite depth is examined. Solutions obtained using an integral equation technique are presented for a range of different depths and for a range of angles of the front of the bow. The solution for the limiting case of infinite Froude number is obtained as an integral, and numerical solutions are found for the nonlinear problem in which the Froude number is finite. Solutions with smooth separation are shown to exist for all values of Froude number greater than unity, for any bow slope.
