Aerodynamic Load Prediction on a Patrol Vessel Using Computational Fluid Dynamics

Aerodynamic loads and moments on a naval patrol vessel are investigated using computational fluid dynamic simulations based on the OpenFOAM solver. After the initial turbulence, time, and grid dependency study, model scale simulations were performed for a wide range of inflow angles to predict aerod...
