3. A view of the port side of the bridge on the model showing the smoke trace on the bridge without a wind trap.
4. A view of the the port side of the bridge on the model showing the smoke trace of wind deflection on the bridge with the wind trap.
5. A view of the port side of the model looking at the after part of the superstructure with the funnel. The smoke simulates the ships at 10 knots on two boilers with 40 mph wind.
6. A view of the port side of the model looking at the after part of the superstructure with the funnel. The smoke simulates the ships at 15 knots on two boilers with 40 mph wind.
7. A view of the port side of the model looking at the after part of the superstructure with the funnel. The smoke simulates the ships at full spead ahead with 20 mph wind.
8. A view of the port side of the model looking at the after part of the superstructure with the funnel. The smoke simulates the ships at full speed with 353 mph wind.
9. A view of the starboard side of the model looking at the superstructure with the funnel. The smoke simulates the ships at full speed astern with 20 mph wind from astern.
