In this paper, we present the implementation of a lattice Boltzmann free surface algorithm for the simulation of water entry problems. The aim of this work is to isolate the effects of asymmetric impact on the water entry of a rigid wedge. Simulations for different heel angles were conducted in order to evaluate the influence of this parameter on the wedge dynamics, pile-up evolution, and velocity distribution.

Abstract

In this paper, we present the implementation of a lattice Boltzmann free surface algorithm for the simulation of water entry problems. The aim of this work is to isolate the effects of asymmetric impact on the water entry of a rigid wedge. Simulations for different heel angles were conducted in order to evaluate the influence of this parameter on the wedge dynamics, pile-up evolution, and velocity distribution. Our results indicate that the heel angle remarkably influences the physics of water impact.
