I think I have searched every corner of internet to find a good step by step tutorial on how to set up a ship\/boat simulation in a virtual towing tank. I have found tutorials on how to set up a transient multiphase simulation to calculate drag with a static hull. But it stops there. I find it very limiting and incorrect with a static hull and just water flow around it. Heave and pitch grately affect the drag and lift forces. I really want to learn how to set up and test hull designs with flowing water (to simulate movment of and forces on the vessel like drag,lift and required power). The vessel should atleast have 2dof, ( like a moored boat with heave and pitch affected by bouyancy and lifting forces in regards to speed of waterflow) but it would be cool to learn how to test the vessel with more dof’s to test stability and related forces with different load conditions as cargo, inventory, machines, internal tanks etc. Id like to test the vessels in different speeds, as slow displacement and fast planing speeds. Id like to test in calm and wavy water from different angles. The internet is full of Ansys tutorials, but it seems like none that fit my needs. I am a hobbyist and do not have a education, but I got a basic understanding of CFD but the suite of Ansys software is to say the least daunting and not at all intuitive if you are not educated on CFD or physics. So many ways to do the same things, but hard to find out when, what, where, how and why to do the different tasks. Most learning material I find on interesting topics are aimed at CFD educated people and thus is very general and academic not in any way showing how to do it step by step in the actual software. I would really love to se someone make a good Youtube series or a good PDF dedicated to ship\/boat simultation and post process analyzis with Ansys software. You know, Ansys marine\/ship\/boat CFD for dummies like me. I have seen some Youtube videoes demonstrating that Ansys can do what I want. But no where to find a ‘how to’ or tutorial.<\/p>\n

Pretty please someone please make my dream come true. Id love to learn more about this topic.<\/p>\n
Best regards,<\/p>\n
