| Abstract | Wave breaking around marine vessels, particularly in the bow region, plays a critical role in determining hydrodynamic resistance and overall performance. This study investigates the complex bow wave breaking phenomenon using the KRISO Container Ship (KCS) model as a reference hull. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analyses were performed with two commercial solvers, STAR-CCM+ and ANSYS FLUENT, with a focus on accurately capturing unsteady bow wave breaking. The paper highlights the detailed numerical setups developed to enhance simulation performance in resolving unsteady wave breaking behaviour. The CFD results are compared with experimental model test data to evaluate simulation accuracy and confirm their reliability. |
