Stern flow hydrodynamics around a self-propelled maneuvering vlcc ship

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: This research explores the stern flow hydrodynamics around a maneuvering Utilizing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) techniques several flow scenarios including different drift angles and propulsion configurations are modeled for the benchmark KRISO Very Large Crude Carrier 2 (KVLCC2). Specifically, the analysis will focus on determining the vortex formations that appear in the propeller operating area and on examining the mutual interaction between the turbulent flow and the propulsion unit. Following the research direction outlined, this paper will focus on examining five transversal sections longwise the ship in front of, at, and behind the propeller plane. In . . .
