Abstract

The optimization of the flying sail shape is performed for an International America’s Cup sailing boat by use of CFD code for the sails. After grid test is made to confirm the degree of accuracy, highest lift/drag ratio is pursued by changing the parameter for sail shape. The obtained sail performance is put into the VPP (velocity prediction program) to find out the total system with highest VMG.
