The Van Oortmerssen method uses formulae and data published in References 5 to calculate the residuary resistance coefficient for any hullform within the following ranges:

where:

The resulting residuary resistance coefficient is then added to the frictional resistance coefficient obtained from the ITTC 1957 model-ship correlation line.
