Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is an essential tool in modern naval engineering, enabling the prediction and improvement of a vessel’s hydrodynamic behavior without the need for expensive physical tests in tow tanks. Through advanced simulations, critical factors such as drag resistance, lift on hydrofoils, dynamic stability, and behavior in various wave conditions are analyzed.

The use of CFD allows for the evaluation of a hull’s performance in different situations, optimizing its efficiency and ensuring smoother and safer navigation. Studies include flow analysis around the hull, wave interaction, and power and behavior predictions at high speeds.

These simulations are crucial in the development of high-performance yachts, hydrofoils, commercial vessels, and autonomous surface vehicles (USVs), ensuring that each design meets the highest standards of efficiency and safety before construction. Thanks to the precision of CFD, complete design optimization is achieved, reducing development costs and significantly improving operational efficiency.
