Free surface flow simulation around a Wigley hull using viscous and potential flow approaches

The incompressible free surface flow around a Wigley hull form has been simulated using a commercial RANSE code using the two-phase Eulerian-Eulerian fluid approach, and a potential flow code using on the Rankine source method. The flow has been simulated around the hull at two Froude numbers and co...
