Hello everybody,

i'm new in using Ansys Fluent. I am currently doing drag force analysis of different ship hulls with multiphase model. This is actually working pretty well, but in my version i need to define the surface level of the water. I want to define a CAD hull and define the material of the hull.
After this step, i would like to attach a mass-point on a specific position in the ship hull to simulate different mass distributions and mass centers. With the described model i want to see if the ship swims and determine the drag force for different mass points (which obviously have a big influence on the drag force).

Is it possible to realize such a goal in Fluent? If yes can somebody give me a hint on how to do it.

I appreciate any help.

Thank you
