Recirculating water tunnel (modelling and fabrication) / Mohd. Nazira Mohd. Nasir

The recirculating water tunnel is an important equipment to study the performance of a design model. Whereby before an actual size or prototype ship is built a model is made and run through a series of test to ensure the performance of the design ship is up to the requirement.

In designing the water tunnel the most important parameter to be consider is to achieve a steady flow at the test section. In this thesis, the theory of weir crest developed by V. T.
