A modern free-surface capturing methodology is implemented in an unstructuredgrid, finite-volume RANSE flow solver. A systematic grid-refinement study and a comparison of several discretisation schemes for the transport equation of concentration is performed to evaluate the influence of the discretization error on the interface smearing. Detailed comparisons with model test results for a Series 60 bare hull (CB = 0.60) illustrate the high degree of reliability of this approach, provided that adequate compressive discretisation schemes are used with a reasonable number of grid points.
