Caponnetto Hueber innovates daily to improve the design of boats, sailboats and yachts. A unique project it participated in involved the SeaBubble – the river taxi that offers a rapid, silent and ecological method of urban transportation.
By leveraging Simcenter STAR-CCM+ software, Caponnetto Hueber was able to simulate complex fluid dynamics behaviors to optimize the design of the taxi’s hydrodynamic element. Watch the video to see how the team tested the performance of the submerged propellers to push the hull upwards without sudden movement, ensuring a smooth ride for passengers.
