| Abstract | This paper presents a comparison of numerical methods with model test results for squat (sinkage and trim) of a 1:75 KVLCC2 model in the Flanders Hydraulics Research towing tank, at a range of rectangular canal widths and depths. The numerical methods are the Linear-2D and Nonlinear-1D methods in ShallowFlow, the Double-Body method in HullWave and the Rankine-Source method in GL Rankine. Analysis of the model tests showed that in the narrowest canals, mass flux past the ship was not conserved, nevertheless it appears that the Nonlinear-1D method may give good results for the narrowest canals. The Linear-2D method was found to give good results in the widest canal, particularly at the shallowest water depth. The Rankine-Source method was found to give good results for the widest canal, particularly at high speed. The Double-Body method was found to give quite consistently good results across all conditions. |
