To better study the maneuvering performance of a 210,000-ton bulk carrier, this paper utilizes commercial software STAR CCM+ to carry out numerical computations of three types of planar motion mechanism movements: The yaw motion, the yaw motion with drift angle, the yaw motion with steering angle. These simulations are based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, the Volume of Fluid (VOF) model, the body-force method, and six-degree-of-freedom model. The transverse forces and the yawing moments are compared, and their integral values are calculated. All computational results show good agreement with model experimental data, verifying the reliability of the numerical calculation method.

摘要

To better study the maneuvering performance of a 210,000-ton bulk carrier, this paper utilizes commercial software STAR CCM+ to carry out numerical computations of three types of planar motion mechanism movements: The yaw motion, the yaw motion with drift angle, the yaw motion with steering angle. These simulations are based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations, the Volume of Fluid (VOF) model, the body-force method, and six-degree-of-freedom model. The transverse forces and the yawing moments are compared, and their integral values are calculated. All computational results show good agreement with model experimental data, verifying the reliability of the numerical calculation method.
