Abstract

The computational fluid dynamics software FLUENT is used to calculate and compare the hydrodynamic performance of the propeller-rudder system of a 42-m trawler, which is installed with a ducted propeller. The effects of rudder on the hydrodynamic performance of the ducted propeller and the wake flow behind the propeller are firstly investigated. In addition, the different rudder angles are also considered to further study the performance of this system.
