Multiphase Flow in Fluent (VOF)

sarkripalu · September 13, 2017, 18:51

I am trying to simulate the pressure distribution on the surface of the water due to a ship motion. I am using the VOF model but I am not able to place the ship in the geometry. Even if I am using the boolean to place the ship, I am not getting the expected result. If someone has done such thing, would to great if helps.

In operation conditions you have to set the reference pressure in the less density in other words phase above the water surface
