The numerical prediction of green water loads on super-structures is challenging due to the high number of required calculations to identify the critical operational conditions in the seaway which lead to overcoming seawater on deck. Further, the simulation of the non-linear behaviour of water on the deck and the prediction of impact loads require high computational effort. This paper presents an efficient three-step approach to simulate green water loads. The application of the developed procedure will be demonstrated on a mega yacht geometry.

The effect of trapped water on deck or the interior compartments of ships on ship motions is closely investigated by use of a non-linear numerical simulation method. The employed method enables the efficient simulation of the wave excited, coupled ship – trapped water motions and proves to be a very valuable tool for the assessment of the survivability of flooded ships in waves. A detailed study has been carried out to more carefully investigate the coupling effects between the ship and the floodwater mass that can be expressed through a resultant interaction force. This interaction force has been approximated both by a simplified model employed by the present simulation method and also by a more accurate CFD code and satisfactory agreement between the results of both approaches has been obtained.
