    Squat

    Uploaded by

    This document contains calculations and a graph showing how ship squat, the downward movement of a ship's hull as it moves through water, varies with speed in both open water and confined channels. The graph plots squat in meters on the y-axis against speed in knots on the x-axis, showing that squat is higher for a given speed in confined channels compared to open water. The document also provides the equations and describes the variables used to calculate squat values at different speeds.

    S = Blockage factor = As / Ac (0.10 to 0.30)
    As = Midship immersed cross-sectional area of the ship
