Grict Generation and Flow Computation for Practical Ship Hull Forms
and Propellers Using the Geometrical Method ant! the lAF Scheme
Y. Kodama
Ship Research Institute
Tokyo, Japan
Abstract
Grid generation for ship hulls and a propeller blade
was made using the geometrical method, where an ini-
tial grid is modified iteratively under several geomet-
rical requirements such as orthogonality, smoothness,
and clustering.
Using the generated grid, the computation of the
incompressible Navier-Stokes equations was made for
flows past a flat plate and four different ship hull forms
using the IAF scheme and the Baldwin-Lomax zeros
equation turbulence model. The hull forms chosen are a
Wigley hull and Series 60 (Cb=0.6, 0.7, 0.8) hulls. Prior
to the ship flow computation, the flow around a flat
plate was computed, where the agreement of the com-
puted result with experiment was very good in terms
of the wall shear stress, displacement thickness, shape
factor, and velocity distribution. The computed flow
past a Wigley hull, which is not very different from the
flat plate result because of its fine hull form, showed
good agreement with experiments. The computed flows
past Series 60 (Cb=0.6, 0.7, and 0.8) hull forms showed
systematic change with the Cb block coefficient values.
The computed Cb=0.6 result showed reasonable agree-
ment with experiments. However, the agreement be-
came poorer with increase in the Cb values (=0.7, 0.8~.
1. Introduction
Prediction of flow past a ship hull has been an im-
portant subject in ship hydrodynamics because of its
practical importance. If one succeeds in accurate pre-
diction of the flow, one can get a resistance value to be
used in powering, and the wake field at the propeller
plane to be used in propeller performance estimation.
A classical approach to the above problem is the
bo~ndary-layer method t14. But recently, aided by
the rapid development of computer hardware, methods
called NS solvers, in which the governing equations of
71
the flow are discretized and computed, are becoming
increasingly popular t2],(3],[43. The author previously
computed the flow past a Wigley hull using the non-
conservation form of the NS solver t53. The present work
is an extension of the previous work. The major change
is in the use of the conservation form. The scheme
is called the IAF scheme [6], which is widely used for
computing compressible flows. Pseudo-compressil>ility
is introduced in the continuity equation of the incom-
pressible flow, in order to make the system of equations
hyperbolic. A conservative 2nd-order central differenc-
ings are used for convection and diffusion terms, and
the 4-th order numerical dissipation terms are e~cplcitly
added to the equations to damp out high frequency wig-
gles.
The degree of accuracy of computed results of NS
solvers is affected by the quality of the grid used. There-
fore, it is important to be able to generate grids of high
quality, in order to obtain good computed results. In
the present paper, a grid generation method called the
geometrical method is used. It is an extension of the
method used by the author previously t73. Using the
method, the grid on a propeller blade and the grids
around ship hulls are generated.
Although the use of NS solvers greatly reduces the
need for experimental informations, a turbulence model
is still needed for computing high Reynolds number
flows such as those past ship hulls. The turbulence mocl-
els widely used today in engineering applications are
the Cebeci-Smith (CS) zero-equation turbulence model
t8], and the k-e two-equation model t93. In the present
paper the Baldwin-Loma.x (BL) zero-equation t~rbu-
lence model, derived by making a modification to the
CS model, is used. There, in contrast to the original
CS model, the necessity for finding the edge of flee
boundary-layer is avoided. The model is widely vised
for computing compressble flows in the field of aerody-
namics, and is said to be accurate for ~~nseparater1 floes s,

the present work is to test the validity of the tubulence
model for incompressible flows past ship hulls, and to
find the range of applicability of the model by com-
puting flows past ship hulls with various degree of full-
ness. Although further modification to the BL model
was published recently t10], the original BE model is
used here.

sults of flows past a flat plate, a Wigley hull, and Series

conclusions are drawn. The flow past a propeller, which
was originally planned, is not included in the present
paper.
2. NS Solver
2.1 Governing Equations
The governing equations are the combination of the
incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and the conti-
nuity equation. They are, in conservation form,
q' + Fm + Gy + Hz = 0 (2.1a)
where
q= ~ ~ F=
U +p-~q. UV-~y ~
uv—An G = v + p—MY
uw—~xz vw—Tyz
flu Jv
~ uw—Id
VW—fyz
w + p—fizz
jaw
where all the subscrits except those with ~ denote par-
tial derivatives. The 1st, 2nd, and 3rd components are
x-, y-, and z- momentum equations. In the 4th compo-
nent, which is the continuity equation, bp/0t is artifi-
cially added to give pseudo-compressibility,thus making
the sytem of equations hyperbolic. ,B in the equation is
a positive constant. The shear-stress terms ~ are ex-
pressed as follows.
~m = (R + ut)2u~, boxy = (R + ~~) (fly + vm)
My = (R +~2vy ~ me = (R +~) two +uz) (2.2)
''ZZ = (R Jr 7~2wz ~ adz = ('R + ut) (vz + wy)
where u~ is the kinematic eddy viscosity.

Coordinate transformation from the (x,y,z) Carte-
sian coordinate system to the body-fitted ((,r~,() coordi-
nate system is made to the governing equation eq.~2. ] ).
The transformation is assumed time-independent. The
resulting equation is, again in conservation form

where cat is a positive constant. In order that computed
results obtained by solving eq.~2.4) satisfy the origi-
nal equation with accuracy, these added terms must be
small.
2.2 Discretization
First, the time derivative is replaced by the time
differencing. The Pade time differencing form is used
here.

where qn denotes q at timestep n. ~ is a constant which
(2.1.b) takes the value of either 0 (Euler explicit), 0.5 (Trape-
zoidal), or 1.0 (Euler implicit). Here ~—1.0 is adopted.
The nonlinear flux terms OF, AG, /\H are locally lin-
earized into the form, for example,
i\F = A/\q + A6/\qf. + A~\q,, + A¢~\q¢ (~2.6a)
where A = ~' , At = ~ , An = ~ , At = `9 (2.66)
Then the governing equation becomes

The mixed derivative terms such as 0(A~^q~/~:
are lagged to the timestep (n-1) and evaluated time-
explicitly. Then the above equation can be approxi-
mately factored into A-, A-, and ¢-sweeps.

0.4 Turbulence Model
The turbulence model used is the Baldwin-Lomax
(BL) zero-eq~ation algebraic model, whose original
form is the Cebeci-Smith (CS) model. The kinematic
eddy viscosity ~` is evaluated in the inner and outer lay-
ers separately.
In the inner region, the kinematic eddy viscosity Eli has
the same form with the CS model.

I'd = 12 ~~ (2. 15)
I = knrL1—exp(<—n+ /A+ )] (2.16)
n+ = nRe ~/~ (2.17)
where cat is the vorticity and n is the normal distance
from the wall. In the present computation, as shown
in Fig. 2-3, the normal distance n is determined by
projecting a vector connecting the point in concern with
the root point on the same ¢-direction line, onto the
normal vector defined at the root point.
In the outer region, the necessity of finding the edge
of the boundary-layer, which existed in the CS model,
is removed in the BL model. The eddy viscosity RIO has
the following form.

with K=0.0168, Ccp =1.6, and Cask =0.25. The smaller
value of the above two equations is taken. The quanti-
ties Fma~ and nma.r are determined from the function
F = n ~~ t1—exp(<—n+/A+~] (~.20)
The quantity Fma2 is the maximum value of F that
occurs in a velocity profile, and nmna is the value of n
at that point. Uaif f is the difference btweeen maximum
and minimum velocity in the profile.
Ujif f = USA — Umin ~ 2.21 )
where Umin is taken to be zero except in wakes. The
intermittence factor FKieb is given by
1 ~ 5.5(C~`ebn/nma~6 (2.22)
with C~;-'eb= 0. 3.
3. Grid Generation
The grid generation method used is the geometrical
method. Since the method is described in detail in t11i,
descriptions are limited here on the modifications made
thereafter.
74
3.1 Body Surface Grid
In the grid generation method, first tile surface
grids at inner and outer boundaries are generated. The
inner boundary usually corresponds to a body surface.
The body surface geometry is represented using para-
metric bi-cubic splines. Then the grid points on the sur-
face can be shifted along the surface according to four
geometrical requirements, i.e., orthogonality, smooth-
ing, clustering, and minimum spacing. Fig. 3-1 shows
a spline surface on a Series 60 (Cb=0.6) hull, which
has been determined from given offset points. Fig. 3-9
shows a surface grid on the same hull. Clustering has
been imposed toward bow and stern edges, as well as
toward bottom and waterline edges. Orthogonality has
been imposed at all the four edges.
The same method has been applied to the surface
grid on a propeller blade. Fig. 3-3 (a), (b) show surface
grids on a propeller blade before and after mo~lif~ca-
tion. Clustering is made toward leading, baling, and
tip edges, with various degree of clustering. Here all
the points on the surface are allowed to move except
for th\ose at the four corners, and therefore highly fle~c-
ible grid generation is possible.
3.2 Total Grid
After the surface grid is generated, intermediate
grid points, which are the points between the inner and
outer boundaries, are generated, by simply connecting
the corresponding points on the inner and outer bound-
aries with a straight line, and disributing points on it.
Then the initial grid is modified iteratively under the
same geometrical requirements as those used in the sur-
face grid modification. The grid points on the bound-
aries are kept fixed.
The most important change since ref.~11] is in the
combination of the grid point modifications. In the orig-
inal method, grid points were shifted separately dice to
each modification requirement, whereas in the present
method the grid pains are shifted only once in each
iteration as a result of the combined shifts. The com-
bination is made with weights which change locally ac-
cording to the local grid geometry. The parameter vised
to represent local grid geometry is the aspect ratio of
a grid cell. The value of the parameter varies greatly
depending on the location, since the grid is highly cl~s-
tered near the solid wall surface. The minimum spacing
requirement has been modified. In the old version, if a
spacing between two neighboring points in a certain di-
rection is smaller than a given value, that spacing is
made larger to the given value in that direction by re-
distributing points along that direction with the total
length kept unchanged. This requirement was found
to be too "active" in some cases, especially near the
solid wall boundary where the grid is highly clustered
in the normal direction. There the re-di.ctribution in
the along-the-wall direction sometimes results in kinks
in the other direction. Therefore in the present version
the requirement has been changed to a "passive" one,
where, if a grid spacing is found to be smaller than a
given value, the modification which makes the spacing
even smaller is made zero.
After the grid is modified according to the foure
requirements, the final grid for high Reynolds num-
ber flow computation is obtained by re-clustering.
Re-clustering is the process in which the grid is re-
distributed, in a single sweep, in the normal-to-wall
direction according to a given minimumm spacing ad-
jacent to the solid wall and a new given number of grid
points in that direction, making the information inher-
ent in the original grid point distribution reflected in
the new distribution. This process makes possible to
use smaller number of grid points and much larger min-
imum spacing near the solid wall in the iterative mod-
ification stage, thus making the grid generation much
faster and easier. No change has been made to the re-
clustering process. Fig. 3-4 (a),~b),tc) shows the gener-
ated grid around a Series 60 (Cb=0.6) hull. The i=38
section shown in (b) is approximately at midship, and
the i=60 section is at the stern edge (see Table 4-1~.
4. Computed Results
4.1 Tested Cases and Parameters
Computations were made for seven cases with five
different bodies. The bodies vary in the degree of full-
ness, from a flat plate to a Series 60 (Cb=0.8) hull. Ta-
ble 4-1 shows the cases and the parameters. There im,
jm, and km are the number of grid points in ~ (stream-
wise), ~ (girthwise) and ~ (normal-tc~wall) directions.
The experiments with Froude number values (Fn) were
made in cirulating water channels with free surface, and
all the others were made using double models in wind
tunnels. Followings are the parameters common to all
the computational cases:
ifp=16 iap=60 Xupstream end = ~0 5
Xfp = 0.0 Cap = 1.0 Xdo~vnstream end = 2 0
Outer boundary radius = 1.0 ,l? = 0.1
where ifp and lap are the numberings in i at bow and
stern (or leading and trailing for a flat plate) edges. As
shown in Fig. 4-1, the minimum spacing of grid points
adjacent to the inner boundary (solid shall or symmetry
plane) /\min is determined as

Computations were made using the Stellar GS-
1000 graphic workstation with a rector processor unit
and 3~) SIB main memory. The NS solver took approx-
imately 40 sees (Cases .5,6,7) CPU time per timestep,
7s
using a highly vectorized code. /\t varied from 0.005
NTU (Nondimensional Time Unit) for the Wigley hull
case, to 0.001 NTU for the Series 60 Cb=0.8 case. It
took approximately 4 to 5 NTU to reach the stea
turbulent thereafter, to be consistent with the experi-
ment, where the studs were pla.cecl at the same location.
This applies to all the cases with ship hulls.
Fig. 4-S shows pressure contours on the hull sur-
fa.ce, (x-z) symmetry plane, and (x-y) symmetry plane.
The flow is from left to right. The contour lines are
wiggle-free. In the previous computation [5], where the
non-conservation form was used, there were wiggles at
fore and aft ends of the hulll.
Fig. 4-9 (a),tb),~c),td) show wake contours at
x=constant sections, from midship (~=0.5) to down-
strea.m (x=1.5~. The contours at an x=constant section
is obtained by interpolating the values at grid point lo-
cations using parametric tri-cubic splines, which is an
extension of bi-cubic splines to three-dimensions. The
computed values show good agreement with the mea-
sured values. Fig. ~10 shows the kinematic eddy vis-
cosity u~ contours at i=53 section (x~ 0.95~. The step-
wise change of z'` in the girthwise direction occurs be-
ca.use the location of FmaX in (-direction is determined
at either of the grid points, which are widely spaced in
the outer region.
Fig. ~ , ~ is,
rameters on the wake contour at x=1.0. The figure (a)
shows the result with ~ = 5.0 (Case 3~. The difference
from the ~ = 1.0 result is small, which implies that
the value ~ = 1.0 in Case 2 is small enough such that
the added numerical dissipation terms do not affect the
computed result. The figure (b) shows the result where
the number of grid points in ¢-direction is doubled. The
difference is again small, which implies that the number
of grid points used in Case 2 is large enough.
Fig. 4-12 (a),~b),tc) show the wall shear stress Id
distributions at z/D= 0.2, 0.5, and 0.8 sections, where
D is the depth of the hull. The empirical curves are
the same as those in the flat plate case. The agreement
with the measured values are generally good. The id
values agree well with the flat plate values in most of
the regions.
Fig. ~13 (a),tb),tc) show the displacement thick-
ness {~ distributions at z/D= 0.9, 0.5, and 0.8 sections.
The agreement is again generally good. The b~ values
deviate considerably from the empirical flat plate values
shown as solid lines in the figures.
Fig. 4-14 shows the shape factor H at z/D= 0.2,
0.5, and 0.8 sections. They show tendencies similar to
those of flat plate results, except near the stern.
Fig. 4-15 (a),tb),~c) show logarithmic plot of ve-
locity at three i=consta.nt sections, i.e. i=25 (x~ 0.07),
i=38 (x=0.5), and i=53 (x~ 0.95~. It can be seen
that logarithmic law holds in every case. Fig. ~16
(a),tb),tc) shows the distribution of the kinematic eddy
viscosity id, the locations of which correspond to those
in Fig. 4-15. The tedency is similar to that of the flat
plate.
4-11 (a).(b) show the effect of chancing oa-
4.3 Series :60 (Cb=0.6, 0.7, 0.8) Hulls
In this section, the measured data. shown are taken
76
from [15] (Cb=0.6), [16] (Cb=0.7), and [17] (Cb=0.8).
Fig. 4-17 (a),tb),~c) shows computed pressure contours
for Series 60 Cb=0.6, 0.7, and 0.8 hulls. They are
plotted at the same pressure values as those for the
Wigley case (Fig. ~8~. There are slight pressure oscil-
lations just below the points of mapping singularity in
the wake.
Fig. 4-18 shows comparison of the computed pres-
sure distribution near the stern region on the C1.~=0.6
hull with the measurement [1S]. The agreement is good,
though there is systematic deviation which increases
toward midship, and the adverse pressure gradient is
greater in the computed result.
Fig. 4-19 (a) to. (h) show the wake contours. The
agreement with the measurements are good in general,
except in the wake. There the downward movement of
the low speed region near the (x-z) symmetry plane is
not captured in the computation. There are two possi-
ble reasons for this failure. One is that the intensity of
the downwash due to the pair of longitudial vortices is
insufficient. The other is in the way the eddy viscosity
is determined. In the wake, the normal distance n+ is-
ta.ken from the (x-z) symmetry plane. However, when
the flow near the stern is highly three-dimensional, the
(x-z) symmetry plane is not necessarily suital:)le for this
purpose, in contrast to the situation with the Wigley
hull. There the longitudinal vortices are not strong,
and the flow in the wake remains similar to that of a
flat plate.
Figs. 4-20,~21,~22 show the wall shear stress tow,
the displacement thickness 5~, and the shape factor H
at three z=constant locations. There at z/D=0.8, the
separation occurs near the stern.
Fig. 4-23 (a),~b),tc) show the logarithmic plot of
velocity at three streamwise locations. It is seen that all
the points adjacent to the solid wall are well within the
viscous sublayer as the turbulence model used demands,
and that all the velocity profiles follow the logarithmic
distribution law in the inner layer. They suggest that
the Baldwin-Lomax turbulence model, a simple zero-
equation model, can be used for this type of flow. Fig.
4-24 (a),~b),~c) show the kinematic eddy viscosity ~~`
distributions at the same three strea.mwise locations as
in the logarithmic velocity plot. The clistributions are
similar to those in the Wigley hull case shown in Fig.
4-16.
Finally, Fig. 4-25 (a),tb) show the wake contours
for the Cb=0.7 case (Case 6 in Table 4-1), and Fig. ~1-
26 shows the wake contours for the Cb=0.8 case scene
7~. In the Cb=0.7 case, the computed wakes still show
reasonable agreement with the measurements in those
streamwise locations. However, in the Cb=0.8 case, the
agreement becomes poor. By looking at the three com-
puted wake contours, i.e. the cases Cb=0.6, Cb=0.7,
and Cb=0.8, a systematic trend is observed. In the
stern region, the wake near the bottom becomes thin-
ner than the measured one, and the wake in the mid-
de;pth region becomes very thick, as the fullness of the
ship hull (Cl:) becomes greater. Clearly the tubulence
remodel needs n~c~clification there (see Supplement.
5. Conclusions
Flows past ship hulls were computed and compared
with measurements. The NS solver used is the IAF
scheme, where the pseudo-compressibility is introduced
in the continuity equation, in order to make the system
of equations hyperbolic. The accuracy and convergence
of the computed results were tested by computing flows
rising different numl:>er of grid points, or using different
amount of the added numerical dissipation terms.
The Baldwin-Lomax zero-equation turbulence
model was used. The validity and limitation of the tur-
bulence model was tested by computing flows past five
different bodies. They are a flat plate, a Wigley hull,
Series 60 Cb=06, 0.7, and 0.8 hulls. They vary in the de-
gree of fullness, from complete flatness of the flat plate
to high fullness of the Series 60 C=0.8 hull. By com-
paring the computed results with measurements, the
turl:'ulence model was found to be useful for fine hull
forms, such as a flat plate, a Wigley hull, and a Se-
ries 60 Cb=0.6 hull. However, the agreement between
the computed and measured data was not satisfactory
for the Series 60 Cb=0.7 or 0.8 hulls. This suggests
that the turbulence model needs modification for such
flows where strong adverse pressure gradient exists and
three-di~nensionality becomes important.
The grid generation method called the geometrical
method was used to generate grid around those ship
hulls mentioned above. The method was also applied
to generate a surface grid on a propeller blade. The
body surface was represented using parametric bi-cubic
splines, and the grid points on the body surface were
allowed to move along the surface, in order to meet
the requirements imposed, i.e. orthogonality, cluster-
ing, smoothing, and minimum spacing.

Supplement
After the present paper was submitted for the pre-
sentation at the Conference, the following disagreement
between the two measured results t16],(17] on the wake
contours of the Series 60 (Cb=O.~) model has been
found out. In Fig. A-1 the computed wake is compared
u=o.9
with the ~~easure~ent obtained by Okuno t164? while
in Fig. 4-26 it is compared with the the measured re-
sult ol:'tainecl l:>,y Ful;uda. and Fujii [174. The co~nputecl
wake in Fig. A-1 shows reasonable agreement with the
Ol;uno's measurement, whereas it shows significant dis-
crepa.ncy from the Fukuda's measurement in Fig. 4-26.
This clearly shows that measurements must be carefully
valiclat.ed before they are used in the validation of com-
5 licit. a,tio~.

DISCUSSION
by C.M. Lee
I know that a few people in the past have
shown the NS-Solver results for the DTRC body
forms. I am wondering if further progresses in
computational techniques for a fully appended
submerged body with propeller have been made.
From the paper of Dr. Fu jii this morning,
the CDF people in aeronautics seem to have
progressed to the stage that they can compute
the f low about a fully appended airplane. Have
you tried to include the sail and stern
control surfaces in your computations?
Author's Reolv
I have tried to compute a ship-stern f low
with propeller effect, using the body force
method. Though I got a converged result, there
was pressure oscillation, which is due to the
use of central differencing. I have not yet
tried to compute f lows with appendages. In
order to do that, I think a multi-block ap-
proach should be used.
