How to compute volume of bulbous bow.

Recommended Posts

Hi Caeses team,

 

I am trying to compute the volume of the bulb that I am modifying. I have the forward section including the bow modelled as 'FImageOffsetGroup' but I just want the volume of the protruding bulb ahead of the forward perpendicular.

Do you have any tricks on how to do that?

 

I have attached a section illustration, where the outer red section lines describe the modified bulb I would like to integrate the volume of.

You can do the same for z. If there are still remains from the hull that you don't want to have in the computation, you would have to define a feature which takes the offsetgroup and a curve and cuts all individual offsets at the vertical position of the given curve.

 

Cheers

Claus
