FORT WORTH, TX – Pointwise releases the case study, “Accurate Performance Predictions for Marine Propellers,” providing benchmark validation for accurate performance of CFD simulation results.

The high demand for improving the accuracy, quality, and credibility of the CFD simulation results, should be assessed by providing a qualitative and intensive comparison with experimental measurement data. The purpose of this benchmark is the validation of the CFD simulation software TCFD® with a mesh created in the meshing software Pointwise® and to compare the results with the measurement data available. The thrust coefficient, torque coefficient, and efficiency were compared to the advance coefficient over eleven operating conditions. In the case study, TCFD accurately modeled the Potsdam propeller across a broad range of operating conditions.
