Reasonable parameterization of air–sea momentum flux is important for the accuracy of ocean and atmosphere simulations, and in the numerical model, the parameterization of the air–sea momentum flux becomes a problem of parameterization of the sea surface wind stress drag coefficient ( C   d  ). In this study, five kinds of typical  C   d   parameterization methods were assessed in the simulation of two typhoon cases, one of which was a supertyphoon and another was a common severe typhoon, based on an atmosphere–wave–ocean coupled model. Based on the two case studies, it was found that the typhoon path and minimum sea level pressure were not very sensitive to  C   d   parameterizations, though the spatial distribution of  C   d   and its variation with wind speed were all very different across the parameterization methods. However,  C   d   has a significant effect on the wind speed, and at high wind speed, the simulated maximum wind speed compared better with the observation in the experiment that adopted the  C   d   calculation method considering the effects of sea spray. Also,  C   d   plays an important role in the feedback processes between atmosphere and ocean during the typhoon process, through its effect on the air–sea heat and momentum flux, SST, ocean mixed layer depth, ocean currents, etc. The results of this study answered the question of how the  C   d   affects the atmosphere and ocean during the typhoon process, and to what extent they are affected, which can help to explain or even further improve the simulation results.
