Design of hydrofoil for the resistance improvement of planing boat based on CFD technology

The purpose of this study was to design a hydrofoil which would improve boat performance through enhanced resistance reduction. Commercial CFD code STARCCM+ used solve the Unsteady Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes Equations for flow around boat. Uncertainity is conducted in order obtain an effective and reliable numerical calculation method. method then validated by direct comparison data at different speeds with test USV01 planing boats. Accordingly, twelve cases were considered, their reduction 8 m/s predicted compared each other Effects parameters such as longitudinal installation position, span, attack angle, height on investigated. One 12 chosen investigate effect speeds. results show that hydrofoil, proper position parameters, has significant effect. At m/s, designed paper can reduce up 30.74%.To analyze principle field hull numerically simulated studied.
