Abstract (EN): Accurate dynamics modelling of Unmanned Under-water Vehicles (UUV s) is critical for optimizing mission planning, minimizing collision risks, and ensuring the successful execution of tasks in diverse underwater environments. This paper presents a structured approach to estimating the hydrodynamic coeffi-cients of UUV s. Initially, it follows a detailed methodology for estimating hydrodynamic coefficients using simple geometries, a sphere and a spheroid, using the Computational Fluid Dy-namics (CFD) software OpenFoam, and comparing the results to analytical solutions, enabling the validation of the simulations approach. Following this, the paper provides an in-depth analysis of the damping and added mass coefficients for the Raya UUV, offering valuable insights into its hydrodynamic behaviour. © 2024 IEEE.
