Aerodynamic and Hydrodynamic Performance
design for Powerboats

1) 'Max Velocity' or 'Test Velocity'- with 'Optimize=Velocity' analysis will calculate Maximum Limiting Velocity and all related performance results; OR can generate performance results any desired Velocity.

2) Trim Angles with Full Power, - with 'Optimize=Angle' analysis will evaluate all performance characteristics through the full range of specified Velocities. The minimum Angle of Attack based on the specified (Maximum) Power available will be determined for each velocity. This method is very helpful for comparing designs/features under equal conditions.  

3) Economy with Lowest Power & Lowest Trim Angle; 'Optimize=Economy' analysis completes a series of performance checks, to find the lowest Power and the lowest Trim Angle (WAngle) required to satisfy the setup at each velocity step through the operating range. Realistic prediction of normal operator controls under conditions.

4) Power Required for specified Trim Angles; 'Optimize=Power' mode is used for easy investigation of how much Power is required through the velocity range, based on a specified trim angles. Performance analysis includes all plus acceleration and elapsed time through the velocity range, and all the other performance and dynamic stability analysis results. Helpful for cases where you desire to set fixed trim angles, required power is calculated (and all other performance measures, of course).
