Structured grids are generated by the coordinate transform method in an arbitrary complex region. The Navier-Stokes equations for two-dimensional incompressible viscous flows are discretized in the Body Fitted Coordinate (BFC) system. The transformed SIMPLE algorithm is proposed to modify the pressure-velocity field and a transformed VOF method is used to trace the free surface. Hydrodynamic characteristics on an arc crown wall are obtained by the improved numerical model based on the BFC system (BFC model). The velocity field, the pressure field and the time profiles of the water surface near the arc crown wall obtained by using the BFC model and the Cartesian model are compared.

The features of hull/propeller interaction of a submarine model with a high-skew five blade propeller in submergence and near surface conditions are numerically simulated. The effect of propeller rotation is simulated by the sliding mesh technique. Free surface is captured by the volume of fluid (VOF) method. Computed results including resistance, thrust, torque and self-propulsion factor are compared with experimental data. It shows fairly good agreement. The resistance and wave pattern of the model at different depths of submergence are computed. And the thrust, torque and self-propulsion factor of the model in submergence and near surface condition are compared to analyze the effect of free surface on self-propulsion performance. The results indicate that free surface has more influence on resistance than that on self-propulsion factors.展开更多

The forces,their positions and weight distribution during braking and the forces and rolling moment during turning were calculated. The reliability of the calculation method was validated by comparisons with experimental results. The results showed that during braking,liquid splashes in the tank and the maximum forces and G (the ratio of weight acting on the front axle to the rear axle) are large when A (the ratio of the arch area above the baffle to the area of cross section)≤0.1. When A≥0.2,as the position of the baffle is lowered,the maximum of Fx (the force in direction x) first decreases then increases,and the maximum of Fy (the force in direction y) and G increase. During turning,liquid splashes in the tank and the maximum forces and M (the rolling moment) are large when D (the ratio of the arch area above the baffle to the area of cross section)≤0.2. When D≥0.3,as the position of the baffle is lowered,the maximums of Fy,Fz (the force in direction z) and M increase.展开更多

The ratio of the gas density to the liquid density is taken as 0.001, and the gas viscosity to the liquid viscosity is 0.01, which is close to the case of an air bubble rising in water. It is found by numerical experiments that there exist two critical Reynolds numbers Re1 and Re2 , which are in between 30 and 50 and in between 10 and 20, respectively. As Re 〉 Re1 the bubble will have the transition to toroidal form, and the toroidal bubble will break down into two toroidal bubbles. In this case viscosity will damp the development of the liquid jet and delay the formation of the toroidal bubble. As Re〈Re1 the transition will not happen. As Re2 〈 Re 〈 Re1, the bubble will split from its rim into a toroidal bubble and a spherical cap-like bubble, and as Re〈Re2 the splitting will not occur and the bubble can finally reach a stationary shape. With the decrease of the Reynolds number, the stationary shape changes from spherical-cap bubble with skirt to dimpled peach-like bubble. Before the bubble reaches its stationary shape the vortex structure in the flow field varies with time. The vortex structure corresponding to bubble stationary shape varies with the Reynolds number. It is also found that there exists another critical Reynolds number Re^* which is in between Re1 and Re2 , and as Re 〈 Re^*, after the bubble rises in an accelerating manner for a moment, it will rise with an almost constant speed, and the speed increases with increasing Reynolds number. As Re 〉 Re^*, it will not rise with a constant speed. The mechanism of the above phenomena has been analyzed theoretically and numerically.展开更多

A two-fluid formulation is used in this model and the free surface is captured using the classical Volume Of Fluid (VOF) method. The incompressible Euler/Navier-Stokes equations are solved using a finite volume method on unstructured polyhedral cells. Both steady and unsteady free surface flows are simulated, which include: (1) a submerged NACA0012 2-D hydrofoil moving at a constant speed, (2) the Wigley hull moving at a constant speed, (3) numerical wave tank, (4) green water overtopping a fixed 2-D deck, (5) green water impact on a fixed 3-D body without or with a vertical wall on the deck. The numerical results obtained have been compared with the experimental measurements and other CFD results, and the agreements are satisfactory. The present numerical model can thus be used to simulate highly nonlinear steady and unsteady free surface flows.展开更多
