Numerical prediction of hydrodynamic performance of differently shaped flapping foil propulsors

Numerical prediction of hydrodynamic performance of differently shaped flapping foil propulsors

ObjectivesThe hydrodynamic performance of three-dimensional hydrofoils with different shapes is studied in order to find the optimal hydrofoil geometry.Methods NACA 0012 hydrofoil model with different aspect ratios, tip ratios, forward-swept and back-swept shapes are used to simulated the flow field...
