Hi forumers,
I'm doing a hydrodynamic assesment for a specific ship hull, and the solution seems to be quite accurate, except for the Drag Coefficient. I'm always monitoring it and converges, but the values are of the order of 1x10^3. I've tried the two ways: Putting nothing in the References Values and putting everything (Wetted Surface Area, velocity, etc.) but without computing from any location. Also, when I look at the pressure coefficient results on the hull, the values are quite bigger. Anyone has an explanation? I'm using VOF model and open channel Here are a picture of the total resistance report so you can see that the force report are accurate but the coefficient values have no sense. The other picture is about pressure coefficient on the hull |
