Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Model experiments were performed to evaluate the performance of a stern flap on a U.S. Coast Guard Island Class 110 WPB patrol boat. Several stern flap designs of various chord lengths, spans, and angles were evaluated. The selected stern flap design was based upon maximizing power reduction at high speed, while satisfying secondary powering criteria prescribed at cruising speed and best economic speed, and limits set on desired running trim angle. A stern flap with chord length 2 ft. (0.61 m), span of 8.7 ft. (2.7 m), and an angle of 7.5 degrees trailing edge down, is recommended for installation on the Island Class. At full load, with the stern flap installed, the maximum attainable speed will increase by 0.8 knots. The stern flap maximum power reduction of 5.8 percent was attained at 16 knots. This 5.8% powering reduction includes an empirical 1.5% reduction for stern flap scaling effects as determined from tests on other ship models. Stern flap annual fuel savings for the Island Class is estimated at more than 13,000 gallons/year. The time to recover the estimated cost for stern flap fabrication and installation is less than one year. It is recommended that bow spray rails also be installed in the Island Class. The bow spray rails affected a significant reduction in the amount of spray and forward deck-wetting generated at the bow. A new DTMB Model 5526 was constructed for this project. A ship/model correlation allowance of CA = 0.0003 was estimated from a powering comparison between BAINBRIDGE ISLAND (WPB 1343) and Model 5526.

Book Synopsis US Coast Guard in World War II by : Alejandro de Quesada
Download or read book US Coast Guard in World War II written by Alejandro de Quesada and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2011-12-20 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alex de Quesada reveals the full history of the US Coast Guard throughout World War II in this Elite title. In particular, the book draws attention to the little-known story of how the US Coast Guard ran a number of the landing craft throughout D-Day in 1944 as well as providing crucial anti-U-boat patrols throughout the war years. A number of Coast Guard servicemen were lost in these two campaigns, and their undeniable contribution to the US war effort deserves greater recognition. The Coast Guard also provided aviators and gunners to the Merchant Marine and manned Port Security Services. These roles are all fully explained and illustrated with rare photographs and specially commissioned artwork.

Book Synopsis The U.S. Coast Guard in World War II by : Malcolm F. Willoughby
Download or read book The U.S. Coast Guard in World War II written by Malcolm F. Willoughby and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The intimate view of the U.S. Coast Guard's dramatic World War II record has long been considered a classic. First published in 1957 and out of print for years, the book is now available in paperback. Handsomely illustrated with more than two hundred photographs, the book serves as a unique memento of one of the most illustrious periods in the Coast Guard's two hundred year history. The author offers a story replete with incidents of devotion far beyond the call of duty--daring rescues, adventurous high-sea missions, heroic combat action--to clearly demonstrate the vital role the service played in the Allied war effort. A seasoned World War I veteran who joined the Coast Guard Temporary Reserve in 1942, Malcolm Willoughby has covered every aspect of the Coast Guard's involvement in the war at sea, in the air, and at home. From the invasion of Normandy, where Coast Guardsmen landed thousands of Americans and rescued some 1,500 stranded in the surf, to Guadalcanal, where they rescued three companies of Marines trapped on the beach, this chronicle vividly recounts these well-documented operations and little-known stories of individual triumphs and tragedies as well.
