A large aircraft carrier displaces 90,000 metric tons of water, has a length of 330 m, a width at the waterline of 40 m, and a waterline depth of 15 m. The ship engines produce 200 MW of power, and the top speed is 55 km/hr. Estimate the drag coefficient from this data. What percentage of the drag do you think is wave drag? What are the Reynolds and Froude numbers for this ship?
