Effects of fin stabilizer configurations on semi swath resistance
Published 2017“…This error is larger as compared with other catamaran computational cases, which is mainly caused by the limitation of the computational tools in producing good computational grid and simulating the turbulence free surface flow in the complex hull form. It was concluded that the fins’ installation angle changes the pressure distribution and wave propagation around the hulls, which increases the total resistance up to 70.9% in deep water and 40.3% in shallow water by average. …”
