Influence of ship–generated waves on waterway

Abstract

Results are presented of calculations of ship – generated waves during its motion in canal. For the calculations FLUENT software was bused. It was demonstrated that ship generates waves which, when approaching canal slopes, may constitute an important factor in deteriorating the banks, and that ship’s wave resistance can be used as an assessment measure of influence of ship motion on waterway. The methods which are based on approximate formulae, are not reliable. The FLUENT software may be applied as a numerical towing tank.

Keywords:

waterway, ship–generated waves, numerical calculations
