Performance Prediction of Bow-Foil Thrusters in Waves Using Unsteady Vortex Element Method

In this study, an unsteady vortex element method is applied to the analysis of a horizontal wing in order to investigate its propulsive performance when operating as a biomimetic thruster. The foil undergoes a combined heaving and pitching motion at the same frequency, in a uniform inflow condition,...
