In this paper, a boundary element method is applied to investigate the sound propagation into the far field of a twin-screw vessel. It focuses on the effect of phase angle between the propellers on the sound levels. The flow simulations are conducted using a first order panel method to model the flow around the after ship. In addition, the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings equation is used to predict the sound propagated into the far field. Sound levels in the far field as well as at distinct observation points are evaluated to gain an understanding of the mechanism.enhttp://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/Underwater radiated noise (URN)boundary element method (BEM)Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings method (FWH)propeller cavitationEngineering and Applied OperationsConference Paper10.15480/882.932510.15480/882.932510.15480/882.9294Conference Paper
