The paper describes a computational approach for a numerical propulsion test. Key techniques concern the computation of free-surface viscous flows around propellers using the sliding grid technique and accurate wave capturing around the hull. An advanced numerical technique resolves very small-scale flow motion such as tip vortex. Efficiency and accuracy are balanced using an adaptive mesh refinement technique. This approach is validated against the KCS test case proposed for the Tokyo 2005 and Gothenburg 2010 CFD validation workshops.
