Edition Issue: International Conference on Wind Propulsion 2021 Publication Year: 2021 Publication Type: Conference Proceeding

CFD analysis is expanding understanding of suction aerofoils as a wind-assisted propulsion technology. By evaluating lift, drag, boundary-layer suction, endplates, and ship-interaction effects, researchers quantified performance across operating conditions. The findings demonstrate strong potential for emissions reduction, provide valuable design data, and support broader adoption of wind-powered shipping worldwide today.
