calcCwp.Rd
Calculates the water plane area coefficient (Cwp
)
(dimensionless) using one of two methods (Kristensen or Schneekluth).
calcCwp(Cbw, CwpEquationType)
Cbw | Waterline block coefficient (vector of numericals,
dimensionless) (see |
---|---|
CwpEquationType | Indicates equation type:
This argument is not vectorized, as it takes only a single string |
Cwp
(vector of numericals, dimensionless)
Kristensen: $$Cwp = 0.55+0.45Cbw$$
Schneekluth: $$Cwp = \frac{1+2Cbw}{3}$$
