We combine advanced physical model experiments with the additional benefits of a virtual towing tank by capitalising on modern Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and high performance computing.
We provide a complete suite of optimisation services and our team uses CFD and simulation software codes running on large computer clusters to conduct rapid and detailed flow assessments. This enables a design solution to be refined before a physical model is created for testing in the tank facilities.
Combining experimental, computational and software tools (including Paramarine - our internationally acclaimed Naval Architecture Toolset), we ensure speed and accuracy of evaluation and even greater technical understanding of vessel performance.
Our advanced CFD techniques enable accurate alignment of underwater appendages such as rudders, A-bracket arms, bilge keels and stabilisers for optimised full scale flow and lower vessel resistance. They also provide detailed wake information to support the design and development of low noise propellers.
We deliver proven ship performance and optimisation services to military and commercial maritime organisations around the world. Our experts can help to avoid high build and lifecycle costs caused by over-engineering and ensure operational safety and performance efficiency as well as regulatory compliance.
