Displacement Hull-KCS:
The KRISO Container Ship (KCS) was a modern container ship with a bulbous bow. This model has been used as one of the benchmark models for the displacement hull. The full size ship has a length of 230 meters, and a volume of 52030 cubic meters.
Discriminators:
- Automated meshing of the geometry
- Superior speed enables transient simulations which are inherently more accurate
- Can include complex features and tight clearances
- Ease-of-use
Design Issues/Benefits:
- Predict performance to within 5 %
- Predict loads
- Reduce noise
