Hello Rob
I have one query regarding your last post answer
"In single phase we'd chop the top part off the hull and use a symmetry plane as the water surface. You'd then need to figure out what forces to add/subtract to get the "correct" values. Note, waves add to the viscous and pressure forces, they're reported separately."
Question 1)This single phase simulation, i have to do in vof or where?
Question 2)what you mean by "You'd then need to figure out what forces to add/subtract to get the "correct" values"?
Question 3) Note, waves add to the viscous and pressure forces, they're reported separately."...yes this i understand, but in single phase we dont have free surface, so thus we have no waves, so only thing left is friction and viscous resistance...Right? Please can you correct.

Thanks
