The fThe flow field around the axisymmtric stream lined bodis which forms the main body of the airplaines and submarines has been the subject of several researches. Turning maneuvers of submarines result in cross flow separation that generates large hydrodynamic forces. The separation of a simple axisymmetric body is very complex in nature. Understanding these vortical flows is paramount to improving vehicle performance and design. A suitable way to reduce the effects of this separated flow is to use vortex generators. The main goal of the present study is to investigate the flow field around a Suboff standard underwater model employing the vortex generator by using the oil flow visualization method and CFD method (OpenFOAM code) at 0° ≤ α ≤ 30° angles of attack. The novelty of the this study is the application of oil flow visualizing method and CFD simulation which can help us to precisely study the structure of three-dimensional vortical flow field. The results show that Vortex Generators placed along the submarine do indeed significantly reduce cross flow separation, size of vortices and drag forces.
