Abstract
Sailing speed and ocean wave environment have obvious effects on the motion characteristics of seaplane on waves. Using the numerical simulation method, based on the VOF method and the dynamic overlapping grid technology, the dynamic characteristics of the seaplane sailing on the wave surface are simulated, and the effects of the sailing speed, wavelength and wave height on the resistance characteristics, heave and pitch motion are investigated respectively. The numerical simulation results show that with the increase of navigation speed, the interaction between the body and the wave is stronger, and the peak resistance, the double amplitude values of heave and pitch are increasing; With the increase of wavelength, the wave steepness decreases, the peak value and average value of resistance curve decrease gradually, and the motion characteristics of heave and pitch and acceleration also have the same trend; With the increase of wave height, the wave steepness of the wave increases, the wave energy encountered by amphibious aircraft increases, the peak value and average value of the resistance curve of the aircraft in the wave gradually increase, and the heave, pitch motion characteristics and acceleration characteristics also have the same trend.
