Water interference effect on ship due to square shaped object shielding

This scientific paper presents performed numerical 2D Forces resulted from pressure variation due to interference with a square shaped object are analyzed by computer fluid dynamics module ANSYS. Using the 2d geometry we created a three-dimensional mesh around the ship with water speed v=ct and variable shielding are used for analysis. Interaction is computed on 2D model for distances between objects 0.2L…0.9 L, where L is the length of the ship. Various positions of the square shaped object will determine different case as presented in the fluid flow simulation in a restricted domain simulating open sea operation. The pressure for each case can be easily found in CFD-Post and interference is presented for ship operation in open sea.
