sheer-stress.jpg
The Finn under the water - Shear stress is due to skin friction. It serves well to indicate where the flow is separated, in dark blue areas where shear stress is close to zero. Here the rudder is stalled at 2/3 of its depth.
finn-drag-balance.jpg
The Finn under the water - Finn drag balance sailing upwind in 18 knot of true wind and rather a nasty chop. The largest source of drag is the waves generated by the hull moving through the water (28%, in green). The hull and crew air drag is the smallest
bottom-pressures.jpg
The Finn under the water - Pressures on the bottom and the appendages. Blue/green is lower pressures (suction), orange/red indicates higher pressures.
