Numerical Investigation to Optimize Geometry of Hydrofoil Shaped Container Drone
摘要
Egypt’s Suez Canal was blocked by a massive cargo ship, which brought global trade to a near-standstill for nearly a week. As a result, a 9% loss in trade value occurred. For six days, one billion USD per day. So, a transport system essential to transport goods through narrow waterways are important. Our study aimed to investigate the NACA0012, and NACA4412 hydrofoils at different values considering attack angles under various velocities and explore the impact of the lift and drag coefficient on the profiles of the hydrofoils hence opting for a more self-propelling model for goods movement.
