Assessment of motor yacht hydrodynamic performance
Abstract
This study presents a comprehensive Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis of an 18-meter motor yacht featuring a trawler hull design with a swim platform. The investigation explores the hydrodynamic performance of the yacht across three distinct drafts and six varying speeds.
