Check out fusion 360, its made by autodesk. I'm a machinist, I design parts with it but I don't use many of the simulations\ testing potions it has. It defiantly has some different flow analytics, you may find what you want and the software is free.

I used Rhino Marine in college for some hydrostatic modeling(waterline, righting moment curve). Looks to be replaced by Orca3D now. I made the 3D model with Solidworks and imported it to Rhino Marine. I suppose you could use any 3D modeling software you like.
