Dissipative free-surface solver for potential flow around hydrofoil distributed with doublets

doi:10.1007/s10483-012-1636-9

Abstract

Abstract: A doublet integral equation is formulated for the two-dimensional dissipative potential flow around a hydrofoil submerged below a free-water surface. The free-water surface is assumed to involve energy dissipation, and thus it is the source of damping. A doublet panel method is developed from incorporation of the dissipative Green function approach and the doublet distributions on the hydrofoil surface. Numerical computations are implemented, and the derived numerical results are in good agreement with analytic solutions and experimental measurements.

Key words: panel method, potential flow, free-surface wave, energy dissipation, hydrofoil, compressible boundary layer, secondary instability, perturbation
