Resumen

Based on the FVM (finite volume method) numerical method, the flow field around the stepped planing hull in Taunton series was simulated. According to the general procedure of numerical uncertainty analysis, the numerical uncertainty in the high-speed flow field simulation of the stepped planing hull was discussed. Combined with the wave-making characteristics of the hull, the generation mechanism, shape evolution of air cavity, and the pressure distribution characteristics under the influence of the cavity, focuses on the variation of the flow around the stepped planing when the hull is in the triangle planing stage. Numerical results suggest that, as the air cavity enlarges, the cover rate of the air cavity can rise up to 77.8% of the whole wetted surface of the planing hull bottom. While, in the triangle planing stage, there is additional wetting at the aft bilge, which leads to the decrease of the air cavity rate and the increase of the wetted area. At the same time, the pressure distribution concentrates to the center of gravity.
