TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of scale on the evolution of propeller wake is simulated and analyzed under open water conditions using numerical techniques based on the detached eddy simulation method, and the instantaneous flow field, vortical structure and the kinetic energy spectra are investigated for the scale effect on the wake dynamics of a propeller.

TL;DR: In this paper, the hydrodynamic performance of a ship with and without a stern flap was comprehensively investigated based on model tests and model-and full-scale simulations, and it was shown that the removal of the stern flap led to an increase in hydrodynamics.

TL;DR: The integrated ship-propeller-rudder-stern flap calculation method is significantly improved compared with traditional ship model resistance tests as a means of determining the stern flap performances of full-scale ships.

TL;DR: In this paper, a hybrid structured/unstructured grid was combined with the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) and volume of fluid (VOF) methods to perform a numerical prediction of model and full-scale performance for the Kriso container ship (KCS) case.

TL;DR: This study used the REGAL general cargo vessel to perform full-scale ship resistance and self-propulsion simulations for various grid numbers, time step sizes, and wall Y+ values and compared the calculation and empirical results.
