In this study, the gappy Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method is used to fuse wind-tunnel measured pressure data and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation results, reconstructing the pressure field and calculating the force coefficients on a marine vessel. The technique is demonstrated for wind load evaluations on the LNG carrier GALEA. The results show a reasonable agreement with the wind-tunnel measured results and those obtained from CFD simulations.
In this study, the gappy Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (POD) method is adopted to fuse wind-tunnel measured pressure and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation results to reconstruct the pressure field and calculate the force coefficients on a marine vessel. The technique is demonstrated for wind load evaluations on the LNG carrier GALEA. With 24 pressure sensor data from wind tunnel tests, the pressure distributions on the whole vessel surface are reconstructed successfully, and the force coefficients obtained from the gappy POD show a reasonable agreement with the wind-tunnel measured results and those obtained from CFD simulations. In addition, sensitivity studies have been carried out to determine the minimum sensor number requirement and sensor deployment strategies for gappy POD to achieve high accurate force coefficient evaluations.
