Effects of Boundary Layer Control Method on Hydrodynamic Characteristics and Tip Vortex Creation of a Hydrofoil

There is currently a significant focus on using boundary layer control (BLC) approach for controlling the flow around bodies, especially the foil sections. In marine engineering this is done with the hope of increasing the lift - to - drag ratio and efficiency of the hydrofoils. In this paper, effec...
