A structured overset grid approach coupled with Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (overset-RANS) method is presented to provide an accurate resolution of two surface ships moving with opposite velocity in viscous fluids. The RANS equations with shear stress transport (SST) k - ω model are employed to treat the viscous turbulent flows. The fully nonlinear boundary condition at the free surface is satisfied at each time step and the evolution of the free surface is achieved by using the level set method. A structured overset grid approach is used to allow flexibility in grid generation, local mesh refinement, as well as the simulation of moving objects while maintaining good grid quality. The presented overset-RANS method is demonstrated by two surface Wigley ship hulls moving with opposite velocity in still water. The simulating results illustrate the feasibility of the presented method to compute the complex viscous free surface flows interacting with many moving ships in still water or in waves.
