Fins are widely used for roll stabilization of car ferries and passenger ships as well as high performance naval ships. In the present study, model experiments and numerical simulations are performed to investigate the influence of tail blades on the performance of a fin stabilizer for various angles of attack. It is found that a considerable improvement in performance of the fin stabilizer is achieved with adoption of the tail blades. The results can be utilized for the design of a high-lift control surfaces including fin stabilizers.
