ESTIMATION OF WATER ENTRY FORCES, SPRAY PARAMETERS AND SECONDARY IMPACT OF FIXED WIDTH WEDGES AT EXTREME ANGLES USING FINITE ELEMENT BASED FINITE VOLUME AND VOLUME OF FLUID METHODS

In this paper, water entry of wedges with deadrise angles ranging from 10 to 80 degrees at two different velocities is simulated. Impact forces, spray parameters, cavity formation above the chine, and secondary impact forces due to the cavity formation are investigated with particular focus on the e...
