Abstract

The present study explored the possibilities of the applications of open source libraries to shipbuilding and marine engineering industries. A computational fluid dynamics (CFD) code, termed SNUFOAM, was developed and tested for turbulent flow around a ship, free surface flow around a hull, cavitating flow, and vortex shedding dynamics around a cylinder. The results using the developed CFD codes were compared against existing experimental data and solution of commercial CFD codes. SNUFOAM showed the nearly same results as commercial CFD codes and proved to be an alternative to commercial CFD codes for shipbuilding and marine engineering industries.
