Wageningen 2025: a Workshop on CFD in Ship Hydrodynamics
International workshops on numerical methods in ship viscous flow have been held regularly over a long period of time. The workshops were held in 1980 (G), 1990 (G), 1994 (T), 2000 (G), 2005 (T), 2010 (G) and 2015 (T) in Gothenburg (G) and Tokyo (T). This website outlines the next workshop in the series, hosted by the Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN) and to be held in Wageningen. Initially, the aim was to have the next workshop in 2020, but due to SIMMAN activities and the worldwide pandemic, this was unfeasible, and a rescheduling was needed. The organization has now decided to host the workshop in the fall of 2025, from Monday November 17th to Wednesday 19th. As before, the objective is to assess state-of-the-art CFD methods for ship hydrodynamics using several well specified test cases, to aid physical understanding and code development and to strengthen the reliability of CFD for ship design and evaluation.

Update of ONRT propeller and shaft geometry
For everyone doing the ONRT – Course Keeping in Waves case: improved geometry files have been uploaded to the website. Notable changes are the diameter of the propeller and a modification of the shaft bossing diameter and better transition between the shaft bossing and upstream part of the shaft. All other geometries are basically the same. New files are provided in model scale units and in non-dimensional units.
New hydrostatic values have been calculated and included in the table in the instructions. See ONR Tumblehome (ONRT) – Course Keeping in Waves for the updates.
