Understanding the influence of the ship hull design on the ship-ice interaction is essential for its assessment in an early design stage. Within the research project ProEis an investigation is carried out which is based on a holistic consideration of the ice breaking process. This paper aims to present an improved testing procedure to enable the development of a numerical simulation procedure that predicts the twoway coupled hydrodynamic interaction of the vessel with the turbulent nonlinear flow as well as the collision of the pre-broken ice and the ship hull and a companion tool which determines the bow ice-breaking pattern. Analysis results of the influence of different bow shape (parameters) on the breaking pattern are given followed by a first evaluation of the ice flow along the ship hull.
