Experiments were conducted to determine the drag coefficient C(D) of the tripwire and the approximate location of boundary layer flow transition. The investigation was performed with a simplified model of a circular cylinder placed on or near a flat plate. The experimental conditions were those typical of ship-model appendage drag experiments. One of the purpose was to obtain a formula for CD when there is a gap between the cylinder and the flat plate. An example of the drag prediction of an appendage, modeled as a flat plate, is given based on the new C(D) and the prediction method recommended here. A comparison with the result obtained using the prediction method currently in use at DTNSRDC is made. The results indicate that both the effect of a gap, if it exists, on the tripwire drag and the effect of the presence of the tripwire on the turbulent skin friction must be considered.
