Past researches revealed that installation of a stern flap reduces the value by 5% to 10%. The current research investigates resistance reduction on a patrol boat due to variation of the flap span width and angle of installation. The flap chord length was varied by 50% and 0 0 100% of the ship transom width (BT) whilst the installation angle was set to 0 and 5 . Numerical tests were carried out using CFD method employing NUMECA Fine Marine software. Simulation result disclosed that the stern flap length of 50% BT installed at 0 indicates the most optimum arrangement. Reduction of the resistance value increases correspondingly to the ship resistance as the ship speed increases. The wave form developed conforms with the flap width such that the wider the flap results in wider TI - Numerical Analysis of Patrol Boat Performance with a Stern Flap JF - International Journal of Marine Engineering Innovation and Research DO - 10.12962/j25481479.v5i2.5560 DA - 2020-06-30 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/unpaywall/numerical-analysis-of-patrol-boat-performance-with-a-stern-flap-l10ovf6hNn DP - DeepDyve ER -
