Measuring flow noise
The upper water layers of the sea contain a myriad of small air bubbles created by the
breaking waves. When the hull moves through water it will cause a disturbance, and this
will generate friction. The friction zone is called the
flow boundary layer . All objects
sticking out from the hull, or dents in the hull, will disturb the flow and will increase the
thickness of the boundary layer. When the flow speed is high, the turbulence can be violent
enough to destroy the integrity of the water. Small voids or cavities in the water will occur
and this is called cavitation.
Prerequisites
The CS90 system is turned on and operates normally.
• The CS90 system is in Normal mode, but
TX Power
is set to Off to prevent transmissions.
• The transducer is retracted to its upper position.
• If the CS90 system is operated from any other compartment than the bridge, an open
two-way oral communication channel with the bridge is required.
• Neither tools nor instruments are required. You may however find this equipment useful:
– Personal computer
– Spreadsheet program
In order to do this test, the ship must be "silent".
• The water must be as deep as possible. Recommended minimum depth is 100 metres.
• There must be no other vessels in the vicinity.
• The vessel must lie still in the water.
