Services

Traditional towing tank experiments, flow visualisation and analysis, wake surveys as well as bespoke tests for the offshore and renewables sector.

We have extensive CFD capabilities which complement the experimental testing and other services we provide, offering a cost and time effective solution to hydrodynamic design studies.

The Wolfson Unit offers several wind tunnel experiment services including: measurement of aerodynamic forces and moments, flow visualisation and other measurement techniques (e.g. LDA and PIV).

Tailored packages to test and evaluate wind assisted technologies.

Stability booklets, inclining experiments, ship powering, propeller sizing, yacht performance prediction, hull lines measurement and ships lines generation.

Dynamometers, custom force and torque sensors, electro-mechanical systems and outboard thrust meters.

Stability assessments, model testing and research, accident investigation, safety guidance and the Wolfson method.

Independent, unbiased analysis for accident investigations and engineering disputes.

Measurements of vessel while completing sea trials. 6 axis motions, forces, moments, accelerations, temperatures, pressures, and engine data.
