High-Speed Catamarana??s Longitudinal Motion Attenuation with Active Hydrofoils

摘要

This paper mainly studies the longitudinal motion prediction method and control technology of high-speed catamaran using the active hydrofoils. To establish the longitudinal motion equations of the ship basing on the 2.5D theory. Using the CFD software to obtain the hydrodynamic data of the hydrofoil. Bring the hydrodynamic expression of hydrofoils into the longitudinal motion equations of the ship. Predicting the longitudinal motion of High-speed catamaran before and after added the hydrofoils. A specific catamaran has been predicted with this approach, the result indicates this approach is workable and this prediction approach provides the theoretical basis for assessing the stabilization ability of appendages and possess the engineering practical value.
