Rigid Wing Sailed Catamaran A Radio Controlled Project Nikolas Osvalds ENGN1000, Brown University Proposal Presentation February 17, 2011

What is a Rigid Wing Sail? How does it work? Airflow creates lift “Pulls” and propels a Sailboat, “Lifts” a plane

Points of Sail and Apparent Wind Basic Sailing A wings best friend

Rigid Wing vs. Soft Sail Easier to Handle Lift/ Drag Wears Out Cheaper Lift/ Drag Holds Shape One size

The Problem Prohibitive costs/skills for A and C-class catamarans Wings are not Commercially Available for Small Scale Radio Controlled Sailboats No easily accessible plans for either

My Solution Buy an existing RC Catamaran Design and Build a Rigid Wing Sail Put them together Make what I learned Accessible

Engineering Theory Aerodynamics of the wing Fluid dynamics of the hull Mechanics of the system

Engineering Technology Radio Control Wing Camber Adjustment

Engineering Design Design and optimize a wing shape and size according to the type and weight of boat through iterations
