Taking compressibility of both air and water into accountand using fine spatial grids and small time steps will eventually lead to prediction of hydro- and vibro- acoustic effects. It is also expected that research and education in the field of simulation in marine engineering willcontinue to be supported by both indus-try and governments, since even the best tools are only useful in hands of capa-ble users.TECHNICAL FEATURE CAD/CAM Fig. 9: Computational grid around pro- peller and rudder (highlighted isthe boundary of the region rotating with propeller).
