Abstract
The Gothenburg 2000 was an international benchmark workshop for computational fluid dynamics applied to ship flows. Test cases were three modern hull forms. One case without a free surface focused on turbulence modeling, whereas wave prediction was of interest for the other two. Of the free-surface cases, one had an operating propeller. For the first time, verification and validation procedures were an integral part of such benchmark efforts in ship flows. The workshop showed that free-surface waves may now be well predicted also away from the hull. There is a general improvement in the computation of the stern flow thanks to better turbulence modeling, but there is still room for improvement. Full-scale viscous flows may be computed without numerical difficulties. Verification and validation procedures should be applied for uncertainty analysis, and there is a discussion of the uncertainty in the predicted integral quantities in the paper. Further detailed conclusions and recommendations are also given based on the comparison of extensive standardized plots of the comparative computations and evaluation of the integral quantities.
