Abstract:This study presents the numerical investigation for the flow around the propeller of the ONR Tumblehome combatant in open water and for the flow around the same ship in the case of self-propulsion with actuator disk method. Computational Fluid Dynamics based on RANS-VOF solver have been used in order to analyse the flow. The free surface treatment is multi-phase flow approach, incompressible and nonmiscible flow phases are modelled through the use of conservation equations for each volume fraction of phase.
