Abstract
In this study, a series of captive model tests were conducted to obtain the reference dataset of hydrodynamic coefficients and experimental data for the BB2 generic submarine model with a scale ratio of 35.1. A mathematical model was constructed using the dataset, and validated against a model scale free-running experiment conducted by MARIN for scale ratio of 18.341. The experiments used vertical planar motion mechanism equipment in the model basin at Pusan National University and included resistance, static drift, static control plane deflection, and dynamic tests. Horizontal planar motion mechanism tests were performed by rotating the model by 90° about the propeller shaft axis. Subsequent combination tests—horizontal static with rudder tests and pure yaw with rudder tests—were performed to evaluate the effects between the hull and control planes. The tests were performed under the model self-propulsion point to consider the effects of the propulsor on the maneuvering characteristics of the vehicle. The obtained results were compared with those of numerical studies owing to the absence of open-experimental captive test data for the scaled BB2 model.
