Abstract In this paper, the steady viscous flow around a ship hull with free surface is studied through solving Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations numerically. The RANS solver is based on a cell-centered finite-volume discretization. In our study, the turbulence is modeled through an SST (Shear Stress Transport) k - ω turbulence model in conjunction with the wall function approach for the near-wall simulation. The VOF method is used for the free surface treatment. Calculations for two typical benchmark surface ship models, Wigley and DTMB 5415, are carried out first for the purpose of model validation.
