Biofouling is an inevitable problem in marine aquaculture and it is prone to cause many negative effects on the hydrodynamic behavior of the aquaculture facility. In this study, the dominant biofouling on the netting of fish farms in the Yellow Sea of China was determined by field sampling. Plane nets with various levels of biofouling were obtained by submerging nets at different depths and for different durations. Drag acting on the biofouled nets in currents were investigated using laboratory experiment. The results indicate that drag acting on the net increases with increasing level of biofouling. Compared to the clean net, the accumulation of biofouling can lead to over 10 times more hydrodynamic load on nets. Flow fields around the biofouled nets were simulated using a porous-media fluid model which was validated by corresponding laboratory experiment. As the level of biofouling increases, the flow velocity downstream from the net decreases continuously. The net with the greatest level of biofouling produces the most serious shielding effect with 21.4% reduction in flow velocity. Using the proposed empirical equations, both the drag on and flow velocity downstream from a hydroid-fouled net can be predicted.
