Boat3D
|
CFD for Ship Motions and Maneuvering | Strip Theory |
BOAT3D estimates the forces on a hard-chine planing boat using an added-mass analytical approach and solves for the predicted trajectory of motion of the boat in waves. For a given specification the program estimates the forward boat speed, trim angle, height of CG relative to sea level, and horizontal pressure and skin friction resistance forces, as well as horizontal and vertical accelerations and first and second time derivatives of trim. |

CFDShip-Iowa
|
CFD for Ship Resistance | CFD for Ship Motions and Maneuvering | RANS-URANS | LES-DES | FDM |
CFDShip-Iowa solves the incompressible Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes and continuity equations with a variety of turbulence models, and a single-phase level set method to accommodate free surface problems. Since it has been specifically developed for surface-ship and marine-propulsor flow problems, it has an array of ship hydrodynamic specific subroutines and post-processors. |

NewDrift
|
CFD for Ship Motions and Maneuvering | Panel Methods |
NewDrift is a code for the seakeeping and wave induced loads analysis of ships and arbitrarily shaped floating structures, including multi-body arrangements.
The code enables the evaluation of 6DoF first and quasi second-order motions and wave-induced loads, including drift deviations, forces and moments and is applicable to arbitrarily shaped 3D floating or submerged bodies, operating at zero or nonzero forward speed, finite or infinite water depth and being excited by sinusoidal linear waves of arbitrary frequency and heading. |

NFA
|
CFD for Ship Resistance | CFD for Ship Motions and Maneuvering | LES-DES | FVM |
NFA (Numerical Flow Analysis) is a fortran code and solves the Navier-Stokes equations utilizing a Cartesian grid cut-cell formulation with a second-order accurate, volume-of-fluid (VOF) interface-capturing technique to model the unsteady flow of air and water around moving bodies.
Turbulence is modeled with an implicit subgrid-scale model that is built into the treatment of the convective terms in the momentum equations. A domain decomposition method is used to distribute portions of the solution domain over a large number of processors. |
