Dutch luxury yacht studio, Werner Yacht Design have commissioned Cape Horn Engineering to assess the performance of one of their designs, a 25m motor yacht. A combination of different vessel speeds, loading conditions and interceptor deployment were analysed and compared.
The CFD simulations were processed on a High-Performance Computing (HPC) cluster using the best-in-class software package Simcenter STAR-CCM+ in the latest version from Siemens Digital Industries.
Our CFD methods cover a large variety of flow behaviours and includes free-surface flow, viscous flow, full-scale performance prediction, fluid-structure-interaction and dynamic behaviour.
