る。According to the present invention, when a voltage is applied between the surfaces of the conductive coating films on the anode side and the cathode side of the power supply device, the seawater is electrically conductive, so that an electric current flows through the seawater between the coating films to prevent the water from flowing. Occurs, oxygen is generated on the surface of the conductive coating film on the anode side, and hydrogen is generated on the surface of the conductive coating film on the cathode side.
The generated oxygen and hydrogen become bubbles and separate from both coating surfaces.Since these coating surfaces are provided on the bow, they flow along the hull in the direction opposite to the hull traveling direction and are generated one after another. Similarly, air bubbles wrap around the hull and flow toward the bow side. This foam reduces the frictional resistance of the hull.

きる。As described above, the air for generating gas is compressed air,
It is not necessary to make a hole in the hull skin because the seawater is electrolyzed and generated using the electrodes on the electrically conductive coating film surface installed in the flooded part of the hull skin without using the above. In addition, the hull can be installed at any place because it is not restricted by its structure.
