Abstract: Variance of ship resistance caused by notches in working ship was studied based on CFD method. By numerically simulating the viscous flow around a series of working ship models with notches, the effects of the variation of notch size in bow in longitudinal and transverse direction, the variation of notch size in stern in longitudinal and transverse direction and the interaction of the notches in bow and stern on ship resistance performance at low speed were obtained. Basis for improving the resistance performance of this kind vessel was provided.

Key words: working ship, notch, computational fluid dynamics (CFD), ship resistance
