Abstract

Numerical simulation of flow field and flow noise was carried out on SUBOFF with Lighthill acoustical analogy and large eddy simulation method. The results agreed well with the numerical and experimental results obtained from published literature. The validation of the computational method of flow noise used in this paper was carried out. The geometric model was established for the unmanned underwater vehicle with full appendages and the flow field's computational region discretization was carried out by using structural grid. Numerical simulation of flow noise for unmanned underwater vehicle with full appendages was taken. The numerical results show that the angle of attack has little effect on the flow noise level of the vehicle while the angle ranged from 0° to 4°. Compared with the "+"-type rudders, the flow noise level of the underwater vehicle with "X"-type rudders is about 3dB lower.
