SHIPFLOW -- CFD for Naval Architects

Over the past ten years our software SHIPFLOW has developed into the world standard for ship hydrodynamics CFD. Developed by naval architects, physicists and numerical analysts, SHIPFLOW is optimized for ship hydrodynamics design. Specialization means efficiency and user-friendliness. No general purpose code can compete with SHIPFLOW in hull design: grids are automatically generated, resistance and propulsion data are presented using conventions from naval architecture, and the solvers are adapted for hull geometries.

Lead times are being shortened more and more in ship design, particularly at the initial phase. Many alternatives have to be evaluated in a short period of time. Time can be saved by using the efficient potential flow panel methods, which predict important quantities like waves and wave resistance rapidly, yet with enough accuracy for hull ranking.

Viscous effects are also important. The viscous resistance is often the largest component and the inflow to the propeller is critical. Therefore a good viscous solver such as a Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes solver is also necessary.
