A high-resolution 3-D hydrodynamic model capable of simulating far wakes of ships has been implemented using computational fluid dynamics software. We feed the surface velocity field produced by the hydrodynamic model into a numerical radar imaging model to simulate synthetic aperture radar (SAR) signatures of the wake. Potential capabilities of this modeling method are demonstrated for an example...
We have conducted high-resolution numerical experiments with the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software ANSYS FLUENT on the dynamics of centerline ship wakes and rain-formed plumes in the presence of wind stress. The ship wake model is initialized with the velocity field from numerical simulations using a model with a ship hull and propellers. We then apply wind stress perpendicular to the centerline...
