Wnek, A.D., Paço, A., Zhou, X. e Guedes Soares, C. (2010) , “Numerical and Experimental Analysis of the Wind Forces Acting on LNG Carrier”, Proceedings of the V European Conference on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD 2010), Pereira, J. C. F and Sequeira, A. (Eds.), 14-17 Junho, Lisboa, Portugal

The main aim of this work is to present the results of a CFD analysis of the wind forces acting on a LNG ship model and the validation of the numerical model by comparing the results with experimental ones. The numerical analysis was made on a model that was rotated with step of 10 degrees until reproducing the full incidence of 360o, which corresponds to a series of model tests performed in a wind tunnel. The results are presented in the form of coefficients of the drag and lift force components and yaw moment. A good agreement was obtained between the numerical and experimental results giving confidence in the further use of CFD models similar to these.
