Numerical Calculation of NACA0015 Rudder's Open Water Hydrodynamic Forces

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, Based on the research of CFD basic theory and several key technologies, the numerical model for solving three-dimensional flow field around the open water rudder is proposed. And with the help of computing platform FLUENT, several kinds of numerical simulation of maneuverable movement of NACA0015 rudder have been done. The numerical results are compared with experimental results, showing that the CFD model which is proposed in this paper is suitable for computation of hydrodynamic forces and simulation of the viscous flow around the open water rudder.
