Numerical analysis of the container vessel's self-propulsion at different rudder deflection angles

Abstract

Nowadays, CFD becomes one of the most commonly used research method in ship hydrodynamics, limited to the analyses of hull resistance in calm water. With continuously improving computing power and increasingly more accurate numerical methods it is possible to simulate more complex cases. State of the art CFD tools also enable development of new ways of assessing ship maneuvering performance. This paper presents an attempt on using CFD for evaluation of the coefficients used in the formulation of rudder forces applied in the ship manoeuvring model. These coefficient are normally evaluated in captive tests of the hull with working propeller and rudder deflected at different angles; the paper presents the results of CFD simulation of this kind of experiment. The test case used in the analyses is the well known the KRISO Container Ship (KCS). The computations were carried out at model scale 1:50, for which the reference model test results are available. Comparison of CFD and experimental results is presented.
