Viscous Free Surface Calculations for the KCS Hull

Other conference contribution, 2010

This paper describes computations of the flow around the KRISO Container Ship (KCS) with focus on wave pattern predictions. A steady state RANS code with a volume-of-fluid (VOF) free surface capturing method is used. The calculations are performed with block structured grids with H-O topology and around 4 million cells. The results obtained show a satisfactory correlation with the measurements.
