... Achievement of laminar boundary layer flow over sailboat appendages offers great potential for increased boat speed. Although some measurements of turbulence intensities and length scales in the upper ocean are available, it is unclear whether the local effects of wave action, high particulate...

Use of a full field approach, whereby the entire flow domain is discretized, permits the simulation of the boundary layer and wavemaking interaction as well as the onset of vortex...

... In this paper, foil and planform parameters which govern the level of viscous drag produced by the keel of a sailing yacht are discussed. It is shown that the application of laminar boundary-Layer flow offers great potential for increased boat speed resulting from the reduction in viscous drag...
