Virtual Planar Motion Mechanism Tests in a Cfd Environment
نویسندگان
چکیده
A study is currently underway to better understand and influence the maneuvering characteristics of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). A two-pronged approach, using traditional quasi-steady state-space modeling as well as maneuvering experiments performed in unsteady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulations (URANS), has been adopted to provide the greatest possible insight into vehicle modeling. State-space models must be populated with parameters describing the vehicle of interest. This paper focuses on the use of a virtual planar motion mechanism (PMM) method to find hydrodynamic maneuvering characteristics within a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) environment.
