Simerics-MP+ for Marine

Simulation software for all marine and offshore applications

MAIN FEATURES

Simerics®-MP+for Marine is a 3-D Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool that provides accurate virtual testing for the analysis and performance prediction of Hull design, Friction and Wave resistance, Effective horsepower, Self propelling acceleration/speed, Boat/Ship porpoising, Ship maneuvering, Seakeeping and Propulsion systems. Simerics®-MP+ was developed at Simerics using the latest in CFD architecture combined with Simerics’ proprietary algorithms and physical models. The unique advantages and capabilities of Simerics®-MP+ are as listed below:

  • Comprehensive physics

    Flow, turbulence, multiphase with free surface, conjugate heat transfer, aeration, cavitation.

  • Accurate predictions

    Excellent correlation with test data over the full operating range.

  • Fast model creation, even faster simulation speed

    5-10 minutes from CAD to simulation, 1-2 hours for steady-state results.

  • Able to model complex ship movement

    Self-propelled acceleration, porpoising, maneuvering, seakeeping etc.
