NavCad is built on a physics-based performance equilibrium of the Vessel-Propulsor-Drive system model, and is known for its reliable and confident prediction. NavCad is the premier hydrodynamic and propulsion system simulation tool, providing powerful systems engineering calculations for the performance of marine vehicles.

Unsurpassed in hydrodynamic design and analysis of ships NavCad provides maritime designers with the necessary tools for the optimized selection of suitable propulsion system components. Quickly analyze vessel speed and power performance. Hydrodynamic and Propulsion System Simulation Application engineering tools from HydroComp aid in selecting proper engine and transmission models and characteristics. Drive Drive equipment encompasses the engines, motors, and transmissions that provide energy for the propulsor to do its work.Our software is key for selecting and designing top-performing propulsors. They provide the thrust to move the vessel and use the power developed by the drive. Propulsor Propulsors (including propellers, waterjets, and others) are the central element of the Vessel-Propulsor-Drive system.NavCad is ideal to capture system performance for ship design and analysis – from concept through post-delivery. Vessel All vessel types share a Vessel-Propulsor-Drive system model.Product Development Engineers, creators, and entrepreneurs worldwide trust our tools to deliver results while they focus on the big picture.Academia Universities and other academic institutions use our software for teaching and research.AUV/ROV/UUV Autonomous and remote vessels use our tools to design optimized vessel geometries, specify propulsion packages, and analyze energy budgets.Propulsion Equipment Sales Sales and marketing teams from around the world confidently use HydroComp tools to determine the proper product that fits their client’s application and requirements.Propeller Manufacturing Propeller designers, builders, and sales staff all rely on HydroComp tools for competitive advantage, superior products, and satisfied customers.Naval Architecture Our products are utilized for hydrodynamic analysis, propulsion system design, and evaluation of operational performance for a wide range of ships, boats, and other marine vehicles.
