Summary

General

The hydrodynamic behaviour of the hull over the total speed range may be separated into three broad categories as displacement, semi-displacement and planing. The approximate speed range of each of these categories is shown in Figure 14.1. Considering the hydrodynamic behaviour of each, the displacement craft is supported entirely by buoyant forces, the semi-displacement craft is supported by a mixture of buoyant and dynamic lift forces whilst, when planing, the hull is supported entirely by dynamic lift. The basic development of the hull form will be different for each of these categories.

This chapter concentrates on a discussion of displacement craft, with some comments on semi-displacement craft. Further comments and discussion of semi-displacement and planing craft are given in Chapters 3 and 10.
