Prediction Checks
1. The Holtrop prediction method has a defined upper limit of 0.80 for the length-based Froude number
(Fn). Extrapolating speed beyond this value is not recommended.
2. The Holtrop prediction method contains a calculation parameter (Lambda) that is used to estimate the
humps and hollows in the drag curve. Anecdotal experience and testing by HydroComp have identified
combinations of parameters that can produce significant errors with the Holtrop method. The relationship
between Lambda and length-based Froude number (Fn) has proven to be one such indicator of potential
errors. The prediction results may be unreliable for speeds that exceed this Lambda-Fn relationship.
3. The Holtrop prediction method is based on a variety of hull forms, including collections of transom-
stern round-bilge hulls. As part of a broader evaluation of prediction methods for high-speed round-bilge
hulls, HydroComp has identified a combination of parameters pertaining to the effect of stern geometry
that is an indicator of potential errors. The prediction results may be unreliable for speeds that exceed
this indicator.

Notes
A Sensitivity index with a higher value has a greater influence on drag. Sensitivity values greater than 1.0
are considered significant.
