Rizuan Razali 0 Report post Posted June 13, 2022 Greeting everyone, I’m a postgraduate student from Malaysia. Currently I doing research of optimization of ship hull form towards reducing total resistance. However, I just a beginner in this CAESES software. I really seek for your guidance. If anyone have an example how to optimize ship hull form, can I have that file to use as my reference. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heinrich von Zadow 9 Report post Posted June 13, 2022 Hi Rizuan, I recommend you start by looking through the tutorials and samples related to hull design. Which software are you planning to use for CFD? Best regards, Heinrich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rizuan Razali 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2022 Hi Mr Heinrich, First of all, thank you for your sir. I already go thought for the tutorials in CAESES, such as hull form modeling using delta shift and lackenby method. However, I unclear about how to put Rt (total resistance) in the set up and how to make the flow of dependency as I attached below. Thank you. Regard, Rizuan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heinrich von Zadow 9 Report post Posted June 14, 2022 Hi Rizuan, the important thing to note is, that CAESES itself does not offer any sort of CFD computations. If you want to calculate the total resistance Rt you need to connect CAESES to a CFD solver of your choice through the Software Connector. Which CFD code do you typically use or have licenses available for? Best regards, Heinrich Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rizuan Razali 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2022 Hi Mr Heinrich, The CFD software that I will is NUMECA FINE MARINE, currently my institution on progress to buy the license. Best Regards, Rizuan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Heinrich von Zadow 9 Report post Posted June 14, 2022 Hi Rizuan, very good. FINE and CAESES are well known combination so hopefully it will be 'smooth sailing'... Cheers, Heinrich 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
