ABSTRACT:
A device for guiding the flow of floating objects. The device is connected to a hull of the floating object and, depending on the flow, feeds hydrodynamic forces into the hull. The device shows a main flow body which is designed in a more flat-topped manner in the area of a leading head than in the area of a trailing end. In the flow direction, a secondary body is placed behind the trailing end, which secondary body shows a rounded cross-sectional contour. The secondary body is equipped with a flow-through recess. Furthermore, the secondary body is, regarding an axis of revolution that runs at an angle to the flow direction, guided in an adjustable manner.
