Hydrodynamics CFD simulation

Hydrodynamics is a common application of CFD and a main core of OLTRION expertise. CFD allows the steady-state and transient hydrodynamics of hydrofoils, submersible vehicles, propellers, impellers, marine structures and marine plant to be computed with extremely high levels of accuracy. OLTRION's Engineering team provides analyses ranging from: ship keeping, slamming and sloshing, wave and wind loading on offshore and underwater structures, oil and pollutant dispersions to cavitation.

Hydroplaning (Aquaplaning) Simulation

Hydroplaning, also known as aquaplaning, can be a serious safety hazard for drivers, as it can cause a loss of control of the vehicle. To prevent hydroplaning, it is important to understand the factors that contribute to its occurrence. CFD simulations can be used to model the interaction between the tire and the water on the road surface. This enables …
