In this study, added resistance in waves of DTC container ship at full draft is investigated by means of Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) solver in finite water depths. Validation is conducted against the experimental results of tests carried out with a scale model of DTC in the Towing Tank for Manoeuvres in Confined Water at Flanders Hydraulic Research (in co-operation with Ghent University and in the framework of the SHOPERA project). Following the numerical study of the ship resistance in calm water, the increase in resistance introduced by incoming waves for different advancing speeds is computed. This study shows the capabilities and reliability of RANS based methods to calculate the added resistance in finite water depth waves.
