heal.abstract	The present work is concerned with the numerical calculation of the turbulent flow field around the stern of ship models. The finite volume approximation is employed to solve the Reynolds equations in the physical domain using a body-fitted, locally orthogonal curvilinear co-ordinate system. The Reynolds stresses are modelled according to the standard k-epsilon turbulence model. Various numerical schemes (i.e. hybrid, skew upwind and central differencing) are examined and grid dependence tests have been performed to compare calculated with experimental results. Moreover, a direct solution of the momentum equations within the near-wall region is tried to avoid the disadvantages of the wall function approach. Comparisons between calculations and measurements are made for two ship models, i.e. the SSPA and HSVA model.	en
