Abstract
Based on a time domain Rankine panel method, a computer code was developed to predict wave added resistance. The unknown variables of the discretized flow field boundaries were represented using the quadratic B-spline basis function; the temporal derivative of the free surface conditions were approximated using an Euler scheme. The added resistance was computed via a near-field method. Three numerical approaches were introduced, namely, choosing the boundary end condition, neglecting the second order derivative of the disturbed potential, and computing the water line integral. Numerical computations were conducted in short and long waves for a Wigley hull, the S-175 container ship, and the KVLCC2 tanker. The double-body linearization and the Neumann–Kelvin linearization were tested, and numerical results were compared to published experimental measurements and numerical data. Fairly good agreement was found between the results of double-body linearization and the published data. Effects of wave radiation and diffraction on added resistance were analyzed, demonstrating that the interaction between radiation and diffraction should not be omitted in long waves.
