What causes Skin Friction?

Skin friction drag is caused by the viscosity of fluids and is developed from laminar drag to turbulent drag as a fluid moves on the surface of an object. Skin friction drag is generally expressed in terms of the Reynolds number, which is the ratio between inertial force and viscous force.

How to Calculate Waterline Length of Vessel for Wetted Surface Area of Vessel?

Waterline Length of Vessel for Wetted Surface Area of Vessel calculator uses Waterline Length of a Vessel = (Wetted Surface Area of Vessel-(35*Displacement of a Vessel/Draft in Vessel))/1.7*Draft in Vessel to calculate the Waterline Length of a Vessel, The Waterline Length of Vessel for Wetted Surface Area of Vessel formula is defined as a parameter used to characterize the hull form of ships or vessels.
