  1. 1. Experimental study on stepped spray deflectors for planning hull

    University essay from KTH/Marina system

    Author : Luca Castaldi; [2020]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Planning vessels can reach high operational speeds thanks to their hull design. Some hull forms will develop large volumes of spray attached to the hull surface. The whisker spray is a thin layer consisting in droplets of water which can ac-count for a large proportion of the total resistance. READ MORE

  2. 2. CFD analysis of stepped planing vessels

    University essay from KTH/Mekanik

    Keywords : Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD ; Ship hydrodynamics; Planing hull; Stepped hull; STAR-CCM ; Overset mesh; Volume of fluid VOF ; Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations RANS ; Dynamic instabilities;

    Abstract : High speed planing hulls are currently widely used for example in recreational and emergency vessel applications. However, very little CFD research has been done for planing vessels, especially for those with stepped hulls. A validated CFD method for planing stepped hulls could be a valuable improvement for the design phase of such hulls. READ MORE
