WEBINAR | CFD: Optimizing Ship Propulsion Modelling with RISE

In the maritime industry, mastering propulsion systems is key to improving fuel efficiency, reducing emissions, and enhancing vessel performance and behaviour. In this session, the RISE and Cadence teams will explore how to use Fine Marine CFD to enable detailed modelling of marine propellers in self-propulsion configurations, using both an actuator disk and real propeller geometry.

Contents of the webinar:

  • Introduction to propulsion concepts
  • What CFD proposes in terms of features to model self-propulsion (Propulsion Models, Meshing Techniques, and more)
  • Model and full-scale self-propulsion simulation, using actuator disk propulsion
  • Open questions

About RISE

Rise, or the Research Institutes of Sweden, is Sweden’s national research institute and innovation partner. They collaborate closely with industry, academia, and society to develop long-term, sustainable solutions for the economy and the environment, including within Maritime solutions and fossil-free shipping.

Former SSPA is now part of RISE with the test beds SSPA Maritime Center.

About Fine Marine

Fine Marine is Cadence’s advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) tool specifically tailored for the maritime sector—steeped in naval architecture and ship hydrodynamics. It enables high-fidelity simulation of fluid flows around ship hulls, propellers, and appendages under realistic ocean conditions. A numerical towing tank at your fingertips!
