Sails & Aerodynamics • Re: Sail polar diagram
Those who are interested in a sail would want to separate the properties of the sail from those of the hull, so you get tests of a sail alone. That said, data including a hull are what you need for a Velocity Prediction Program, so the relevant data, or models, must exist. I don't know […]
Sails & Aerodynamics • Re: Sail polar diagram
Thanks' Robert!I was more looking to something more pragmatic like the one we could found on a real boat. In those data, the speed factor could be adapted with a ratio according to boat length. A sail in a real life with influence of hull and a proper mast and so on, is quite different […]
