Flow visualization experiments were conducted on DTNSRDC Model 5442 representing the 198 foot (60.35 meter) Weapons Range Support Craft (YFRT). Rudder angles for flow separation and incipient rudder ventilation were determined. Flow over the model and appendages was observed for signs of flow separation, and bilge keel alignment was checked.
