Abstract

With the development of sensors, an increasing effort is needed to minimize the signatures from military vehicles. For marine vehicles the wake that is created behind the vehicle is potentially of major importance. This report presents a litterature study of the possibility of simulating air bubbles in a ship wake, within the framework of Large Eddy Simulation (LES).
