MIT OCW - 2.972 How a Hydrofoil Works

https://web.mit.edu/2.972/www/reports/hydrofoil/hydrofoil.html

Saved by uncleflo on February 12th, 2022.

The rquirement is to lift the boat's hull outside the water. Hydrofoil (It is a foil or wing under water used to lift the boat's hull until it is totally outside the water.) Explanation: 1. At low speeds the hull (body of ship) sits in the water and the hydrofoils are totally submerged in the water. 2. As the boat's speed increases, the hydrofoils create lift. 3. At a certain speed, the lift produced by the hydrofoils equals the sum of of the boat and cargo weights. Therefore the hull comes out of the water. 4. Instead of having an increase in drag with increasing speed because the hull is lifted out of the water (contrary to what happens in traditional boats due to pressure drag), the hydrofoils provide a more efficient way of cruising. Decreasing the drag contributes to the better use of the power needed for the movement of the boat.

Discogs, short for discographies, is a website and database of information about audio recordings, including commercial releases, promotional releases, and bootleg or off-label releases. The Discogs servers, currently hosted under the domain name discogs.com, are owned by Zink Media, Inc., and are located in Portland, Oregon, US. While the site lists releases in all genres and on all formats, it is especially known as one of the largest online databases of electronic music releases, and of releases on vinyl media. Discogs currently contains more releases than there are English-language Wikipedia pages, at 4.7 million releases, by 3.25 million artists, across nearly 600,000 labels, contributed from over 185,000 contributor user accounts – with these figures constantly growing as users continually add previously unlisted releases to the site over time.
