HIPER 2024

NUMECA will be part of the HIPER 2024:

Robust Design Optimization for More Efficient Ship Propellers

We are looking forward to meeting you at the HIPER 2023 in Bernried. Dr Thomas Hildebrandt is one of the speakers. He will present the paper “Robust Design Optimization for More Efficient Ship Propellers”.

Date: June 10-12

Abstract
This paper presents a robust non-deterministic optimization of a ducted marine propeller. In this test case, the statistical moments of the propeller efficiency are optimized while axial thrust is constrained and cavitation occurrence is considered. The manufacturing uncertainties are derived from the ISO geometrical tolerances S-class. Eventually, a robust optimum is compared with a deterministic optimum in order to underline the benefits of the non-deterministic design methodology.
