A comparative study between wind-tunnel experiments and RANS simulations of modern square headed main sails
A commercial code (ANSYS CFX10) which is based upon Reynolds Average Navier Stokes, is used here to compare with wind-tunnel experiments of a modern ORMA60' rig in an upwind condition. Two mainsails of different tip chord length and a head sail are tested. The flying shapes are acquired by a di...
