  3. Contents The force on the Rudder Magnitude of the Force F = KAV2, Where K = 570 to 610 based on rudder design A is the area of the rudder V is the speed of water flowing past the rudder, due either Ship’s speed Current Propeller wash Point of action of the force - Center of Pressure is at distance x from leading edge, where x = 0.195 + 0.305 Sin θ, where θ = Rudder angle ajit / Tr Sup (Engg) 07/08/2012

  4. Contents Rudder Moment or Turning Moment ajit / Tr Sup (Engg) 07/08/2012

  5. Contents Torque on Rudder Stock The torque on the rudder stock T = F Sin θ × distance “x” ajit / Tr Sup (Engg) 07/08/2012

  7. Contents Rudder (Turning) Moment and Torque on Rudder Stock F = KAV2 (K=570 to 610 based on rudder design) X = 0.195 + 0.305 Sinθ The rudder area is about 1/60 to 1/70 of ships L × Depth Aspect Ratio of Rudder = Breadth / Depth Lower aspect ratio preferred if no limitations to depth With higher aspect ratio, more distance needed ahead of rudder to achieve balance Semi balanced rudder is a compromise if balanced cannot be achieved due, 1. Limitations in depth 2. Limitations in distance between propeller and rudder leading edge ajit / Tr Sup (Engg) 07/08/2012

  8. Contents Balanced & Unbalanced Rudders Angle of balance is the angle of rudder at which, there is no torque on the rudder stock. The rudder will remain at angle of balance without application of torque by steering gear. Balanced Rudder 20 – 37 % of area forward of turning axis There is an angle of balance Torque at 35 Deg is reduced Unbalanced Rudder No area forward of turning axis There is NO angle of balance Torque at 35 Deg is high Semi Balanced Rudder Less than 20 % area forward of turning axis There is NO angle of balance Torque at 35 Deg is less than unbalanced A is the vertical turning axis of rudder. Top fig is Balanced rudder Bottom fig is Un balanced rudder ajit / Tr Sup (Engg) 07/08/2012
