Linear Diffraction Method
• Potential flow
• Small ship motions and waves
• Boundary element method
• MARIN program DIFFRAC

Linear Diffraction Method
• Water in the tank is modeled as
1. Rigid mass+
2. Frequency dependent added mass+
3. Hydrostatic restoring force (GM free-surface correction)
• There is no damping force from the tank since there is no
radiation of waves
• Computation on model scale

• Linear diffraction analysis for the barge
• The sloshing tank is modeled with ComFLOW
• 2D 1-phase simulations (1 cell in longitudinal direction)
• Simulations on model scale
• 400 seconds irregular beam waves to determine roll RAO

Conclusions
• Coupling between ComFLOW and ship motion code (aNySIM) is
working well
• Reasonable results Molin dataset with linear diffraction method
• Good results Molin dataset with ComFLOW/aNySIM method
• ComFLOW library with interfaces will be made available in the first
deliverable of ComFLOW-3, so users can couple it to their own
simulation programs
