3D Numerical Simulations of Green Water Impact on Forward-Speed Wigley Hull Using Open Source Codes
A series of CFD RANS simulations are presented for Wigley hulls of two freeboard heights progressing with forward speed in waves. Free surface effects are captured using the Volume of Fluid (VOF) method embedded in open source software OpenFOAM. Comparisons of heave, pitch motions and added resistan...
