Aerodynamic of modern square head sails: a comparative study between wind-tunnel experiments and RANS simulations
A commercial Reynolds Average Navier Stokes code (ANSYS CFX10) is used here to compare with wind-tunnel experiments of a modern ORMA60' rig in upwind condition. Two mainsails of different tip chord length and a head sail are tested. The flying shapes are acquired by a digital camera to feed the...
