Only "blind zones" of escorts are modelled, and triangular "searchlight" scheme, when depth, on which you will be undetected, depends on the distance from escort.
ASDIC systems could work in both modes, as I know - Active and passive search. However, passive search requires slower speed and better conditions to perform.

Yep, thats y u can go flankspeed on surface if ur 300 meters
Maybe I am wrong, but in real life diesel sound on flank speed will be hearable on this distance. Real commanders use "silent approach" on electric engines on surface on such distances..
nope 300 meters is a lot, and the engines of a DD are makuing noise 2...more than the engines of a Sub. If the DD is not moving...yes.
