CD-adapco has a 28 year history of providing state-of-the-art flow, thermal and stress simulation technology to the marine industry. From large shipyards to suppliers of small components, the use of our technology has become a standard feature in the marin design and safety assurance process.

Using cutting edge solver technology, CD-adapco’s customers have been able to tackle some of the most demanding problems that the marine industry has to offer, allowing engineers and designers to predict how designs will react in operation, before budget is committed to the construction of expensive prototypes. Recent successes include: ship keeping, slamming and sloshing; wave and wind loading on offshore and underwater structures; oil and pollutant dispersions; cavitation control and propulsion system optimization.

 

Case Studies

CFD for future America's Cup
"Because STAR-CCM+ is a completely integrated simulation framework, our engineers have the required time to conentrate on engineering analysis, rather than needlessly transferring models between different software packages" Rodrigo Azcuetta, Cape Horn Engineering for Team Origin

CFD for cutting edge boat design
“Azimut-Benetti have adopted STAR-CCM+ as a standard CFD tool for the aerodynamic, hydrodynamic and thermodynamic design of our yachts. Using STAR-CCM+ we have managed to optimize the performance of our yachts, while simultaneously reducing development costs and time to market" Simone Bruckner, Azimut-Benetti
