Application of the VORTFIND algorithm for the identification of vortical flow features around complex three-dimensional geometries

Accurate prediction of the hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on a manoeuvring marine vehicle using Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes simulations requires sufficient mesh resolution to capture off-body vortical structures. Because the path of these structures is not known a priori, a vortex identi...
