... This paper presents the results of hydrofoil simulations at varying depths below the free surface, in surface piercing conditions, and integrated with ship hulls. It focuses on the influence of the free surface on the hydrodynamic loads, susceptibility to cavitation, and resulting surface wave...

... by submerged hydrofoils working at very high speeds. This is a well-known concept in naval architecture that has been exploited since the beginning of the 20th Century. Hydrofoils used in sailing boat races are yet not designed for cavitating flow, but major changes in the design will be needed in case speed...

... the hull of the boat or prospective hydrofoil systems. In 2014 Putnam, Dickert, and Wagner used ANSYS’s computational fluid dynamics (CFD)software, Fluent, to estimate the lift and drag of hydrofoils in a single-phase water flow. Their design used the standard “T-junction” design seen in Figure 1. In 2014...

... The first objective of this work is to numerically investigate how the proximity to the free surface influences the hydrodynamic response and susceptibility to cavitation of a hydrofoil undergoing controlled pitching oscillations, for high-speed full-scale operating conditions. A second...
