Utility river boats are operated in Canada by Royal Canadian Mounted Police, Fire Rescue Services, Fishery and Oceans Canada and private owners. Outlaw Eagle Manufacturing (OEM) is a manufacturer of several categories of aluminum welded boats, which has been located in Red Deer, Alberta, since 1987. This collaborative project between researchers at the University of Alberta and OEM investigates the aerodynamics of a smaller high-speed boat to reduce its aerodynamic drag. The project aims at characterizing the aerodynamic performance of boat hull by wind tunnel testing. A six-axis load cell will measure aerodynamics loads on a scaled-down model of the vehicle. The flow field around the boat model will also be measured using particle image velocimetry to identify any separated flow region. The results will be used to identify potential improvements to the aerodynamic design of the vehicle to reduce its drag.

在加拿大，公用事业内河船由加拿大皇家骑警、消防救援服务、加拿大渔业和海洋以及私人所有者操作。非法鹰制造（OEM）是几个类别的铝焊接船的制造商，它已经位于红鹿，阿尔伯塔省，自1987年以来。这个由阿尔伯塔大学和OEM公司的研究人员合作的项目研究了一艘小型高速船的空气动力学，以减少其空气阻力。该项目旨在通过风洞试验来表征船体的气动性能。一个六轴称重传感器将测量飞行器按比例缩小模型上的空气动力学载荷。船模型周围的流场也将使用粒子图像测速来测量，以确定任何分离的流区。研究结果将用于确定车辆空气动力学设计的潜在改进，以减少其阻力。
