Summary/Abstract: The study presents the calculations’ results of the cylindrical body’s hydrodynamic characteristics located on an inclined flat surface influenced by oncoming water flow. The calculations are based on using CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) method. The patterns of the pressure coefficient’s distribution over the body’s external surface are studied; visualization of the flow around the body is shown considering the interference of the bearing surface. The conditions’ assessment ensuring a fixed body’s state has been carried out.
