About this document
Propeller Hull Vortex Analysis with RANS by HayderAlSamawi is a document available to read on EtoBox.
This document summarizes research evaluating the propeller hull vortex (PHV) using computational fluid dynamics. Researchers used a RANS solver to simulate flow around a propeller near a flat plate representing a ship hull. Six categories of flow patterns were observed experimentally as tip clearance changed, including stable reverse flow and double or fore vortices. The RANS simulations qualitatively replicated these flow patterns, indicating the method can predict PHV occurrence.
