Towing Tank Testing

Towing Tank Testing is an experimental methodology in naval hydrodynamics, belonging to the class of ship model testing techniques, that involves the controlled towing of a scaled hull model along a long, straight water basin to measure hydrodynamic resistance and flow characteristics under varying speeds and conditions.
