Analysis & Hydrodynamics

Hydrodynamic Analysis & Resistance Calculation

Resistance, powering and hydrodynamic performance analysis for newbuilds and retrofits.

Overview

We estimate calm-water resistance and required propulsive power using a combination of empirical methods and CFD-supported studies where warranted. The output feeds engine and propeller selection and gives owners a defensible speed-power prediction.

For retrofit projects — bulbous bow modifications, energy-saving devices or hull cleaning — the analysis quantifies the expected performance change.
