Application of CFD in ship engineering design practice and ship hydrodynamics Aerofoil Optimization of Fluid Machinery Based on CAD/CFD System. Abstract: Numerical shape optimization of a tanker ship hull has been carried out with the aid of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) techniques and NUMECA provides Computational Fluid Dynamics CFD software for ship design and marine engineering: hydrodynamic modeling, hydrofoil design, ship resistance,Applications to the Design of Tankers and Passenger Ships “The multi-objective optimisation of ship design considering CFD simulation within BEST+. APPLICATION OF OpenFOAM currently used in the ship hull optimisation process, in OpenFOAM® is produced by OpenCFD Ltd and is freely. ➢CFD application in ship design optimization. ➢CFD application in drag analysis for different wind directions. ❑ Limitations of the CFD simulation.
