Experimental studies of the hydrodynamic of the breakwater catamaran float laboratory model and generalizing its results to the real model

Considering the proper characteristics of the Catamaran floats, such as the surface of the deck, the proper sea keeping, the proper portability of the equipment, the use of these vessels in marine engineering and the various applications of the sea is increasing. Due to the widespread use of these ships, their optimal design has been at the top of the marine research, and in recent years, research has been increasing. In this research, a laboratory model of a Catamaran float with a brittle and breakwater nose, and normal transom shape was constructed in the Persian Gulf marine laboratory and after the calibration of equipment according to the ITTC marine standard and weight, drain and center of gravity adjustment were tested at different speeds.. The results of such surveys on the hydrodynamic parameters of this float and its comparison with the performance of the actual model at sea indicate the desirability of this test, which suggests that the use of these vessels in the future due to its high capability in crossing the waves of the sea will be more widespread. It should be noted that during this research the process of extraction and generalization of the results from the experimental test to the float is explained, which can be a comprehensive guide in this field.
