Verification and validation for RANS simulation of KCS container ship without/with propeller
The free surface flow of a modern container ship KCS without propeller was firstly simulated using three sets of grids. The computed results including resistance, wave elevation and flow field on propeller disk were compared with the experimental data in detail. Verification and validation of resistance and wave profile were performed using recommended procedures proposed by ITTC. Then the viscous flow around KCS with operating propeller behind was also simulated. Both body force approach and sliding mesh approach were applied to consider for the effect of propeller. The results of these two approaches were compared with the ta. These numerical investigation shows that accurate prediction of propeller/hull interaction using CFD method is becoming feasible and the huge potential of CFD application in ship hydrodynamics performance prediction is demonstrated.
