Abstract:For the new sandglass-type FPSO, the unique shape of its floating body with oblique side and external expansion can significantly improve the motion performance, but meanwhile may result in specific slamming characteristics in waves. On this basis, this paper establishes a CFD method including numerical wave-tank technique based on the Open FOAM platform. Therein, the velocity-inlet boundary method and the active absorption method are applied for numerical wave-making and wave-absorption. Compared with experim… Show more
