MFR model of rudder -- CFD Online Discussion Forums

Michael Rasmussen Guest Posts: n/a	Hi Forum I have seen in CFX 5.6 that it is possible to model eg. a propeller with a frozen geometry and then rotate the geometry around. The example I have seen is with a constant rotational velocity. My question is if it is possible to model a rudder ( on a ship) which alternates from one position (port) to another (starbord) and back again. This should be done as a sinus motion. I would like to vary how much the rudder is moved (The amplitude) and how fast ( The frequency) any ideas ? Regards Michael
