Kortz nozzle vs. prop walk

A: Which leads me to believe that the force, while limited, is also due to the precessional force created by a rotating mass, perhaps excited by pitching forces resulting from hull shape in the case of a submersible. Possibilities ..... Problem is we would have to wonder if we could fairly compare the two hull types and environments .... still, interesting. B: There are far more stronger forces acting on a submersible on the surface. G True, you're generally not playing with these in calm waters. otn Rick |
