Abstract
A high speed surface craft is mostly supported by hydrodynamic lift force rather than by buoyancy force. The lift force directly influences the running attitude of the surface craft such as trim and sinkage. The pressure distribution is caused by a solution of free-surface flow around the surface craft. To deal with the free-surface flow, volume-of-fluid (VOF) method has been widely used even with its disadvantages including interface smearing. In the present study, a new dynamic interface compression method is introduced to reduce interface smearing and to avoid unphysical solutions. The method was validated by the volume fraction advection test and prismatic body problem. Finally, the method was applied to simulate the running attitude and resistance of several high speed planing vessels.
