This paper investigates the flow field around the KRISO Very Large Crude Carrier (KVLCC2) model at different drift angle using the RANS method in combination with the Re-Normalization Group (RNG) and Shear Stress Transport (SST) turbulence models. The hydrodynamic forces and yaw moment acting on the KVLCC2 model are calculated under the different turbulence models and drift angles, and the numerical results are compared with previous experimental results. The accuracy of the numerical results is found to be acceptable, especially under the SST turbulence model. Three different mesh conditions are employed to perform the verification and validation based on the methodology and procedures suggested by ITTC. The surface pressure distribution, vorticity distribution, and surface flow features around the hull are observed and analysed. The maneuvering derivatives are calculated based on numerical results to create the mathematic model of ship maneuvering motions in the marine simulator and predict the ship maneuvering motions.
