Numerical Simulation Method for Wave Surface Landing of Seaplane

Abstract

A seaplane is an aircraft that takes off and land on the water. The water surface is divided into a static surface and a wave surface. The numerical simulation technology of seaplane landing on wave surface is carried out. The accuracy of the simulation method of static water is verified by the comparison of simulation and experiment. The numerical wave generation is realized based on the pseudo-physical method, and the wave surface landing simulation is realized by combining the numerical simulation method with the numerical wave-making method. It is found that the pseudo-physical wave-making method can realize numerical wave-making and the precision is adjustable; then the water-water simulation of the wave surface is realized.
