Book An Improved Panel Method for the Prediction of Performance of Ducted Propellers

Download or read book An Improved Panel Method for the Prediction of Performance of Ducted Propellers written by Hongyang Fan and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An improved perturbation potential based lower order panel method is applied to the three dimensional problems of flow around ducts and ducted propellers. One significant development of this method is the application of full wake alignment scheme in which the trailing vortex wake sheets of the blades are aligned with the local flow velocity by also considering the effects of duct and duct wake. A process of repaneling the duct is simultaneously introduced to improve the accuracy of evaluation of the method. The results from the improved wake model are compared with those from a simplified wake alignment scheme (PSF-2 type scheme). At the same time, full-blown RANS simulations of the three dimensional problem are conducted. The forces, i.e. thrust and torque on the propeller predicted by the present panel method under the improved wake alignment model show good agreement both with experimental measurements, a hybrid method developed by the Ocean Engineering Group of UT Austin, and the full blown RANS simulations. Moreover, detailed pressure distribution on the blades and duct are compared among the various methods. The interactive method which couples the lower order panel method with a two dimensional boundary layer solver through a wall transpiration model is also introduced. An assumption of two dimensional flow is made on the individual stations of a three dimensional geometries and the coupling is applied in a stripwise manner by including the interaction effects from other strips. The interactive method is then validated through the cases of bare ducts and ducted propellers. An important improvement is also made on the extension scheme for hydrofoils and propeller blades with blunt trailing edge. A more physical criterion has been established for determining the location of cut planes or the starting points of the extension. The extension scheme is applied to both axisymmetric problems and fully three dimensional problems. Correlations of results with experimental measurements and RANS simulations are presented.

The book provides a global overview of experimental and numerical methods for ship resistance and propulsion, manoeuvring and seakeeping. As boundary element techniques are now in standard use, these are covered in sufficient detail for independent code development. The book is divided into seven chapters. Chapter one contains an overview of problems and approaches, including the basics of model and full scale testing. An introduction to computational fluid dynamics is given, including a discussion of applications. The next four chapters cover the subjects: propellers, resistance and propulsion, seakeeping and manoeuvring. These chapters present basic methods, such as model testing, extrapolation to full scale, and procedures for design. Substantial parts of each chapter include numerical methods and their applications. The last two chapters are devoted to boundary element methods for resistance and seakeeping.· Web-supported text. Questions provided in chapters with answers on the web· Covers well-established methods as well as the newest numerical procedures in the area of ship hydrodynamics

Book A Surface Panel Method for the Hydrodynamic Analysis of Ducted Propellers

Download or read book A Surface Panel Method for the Hydrodynamic Analysis of Ducted Propellers written by and published by . This book was released on 1987 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of a panel method suitable for the analysis of ducted propellers is presented. The method is first applied to the problem of the two- dimensional hydrofoil, the propeller with hub and the axisymmetric duct in uniform flow. Some comparisons are made with exact solutions and with other panel codes. The difficulties associated with the modeling of ducted propeller flows are discussed. Convergence of the method for a typical ducted propeller is shown. The results include overall forces on the propeller and the duct, circulation distributions, and chordwise pressure distributions on the duct at different positions between blades.

Book Numerical Modeling of a Hydrofoil Or a Marine Propeller Undergoing Unsteady Motion Via a Panel Method and RANS

Download or read book Numerical Modeling of a Hydrofoil Or a Marine Propeller Undergoing Unsteady Motion Via a Panel Method and RANS written by Abhinav Sharma (master of science in civil engineering.) and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A computational approach to analyze the hydrodynamic performance of a hydrofoil or a marine propeller undergoing unsteady motion has been developed. In order to simulate heave and pitch motion of a hydrofoil, an unsteady boundary element method based modeling is performed. The wake of the hydrofoil is modeled by a continuous dipole sheet and determined in time by applying a force-free condition on its surface. An explicit vortex core model is adapted in this model to capture the rolling up shape and to avoid instability due to roll-up deformation of the wake. The numerical results of the developed model are compared with analytical results and those from the commercial Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes solver (ANSYS/FLUENT). The results show close level of agreement with each other. The problem of flow around a marine propeller performing surge, roll and heave motion in an unbounded fluid is formulated and solved using both a vortex-lattice method and a boundary element method. A fully unsteady wake alignment algorithm is implemented into the vortex-lattice method in order to satisfy the force-free condition on the propeller wake surface. Finally, a comparative study of transient propeller forces on a propeller blade obtained from BEM and VLM (with or without fully aligned wake) is carried out and results are presented. In some cases, results from the presented methods are compared with those from RANS or other numerical methods available in the literature.

Book Prediction of Propeller Blade Pressure Distribution with a Panel Method

Download or read book Prediction of Propeller Blade Pressure Distribution with a Panel Method written by Cheng I. Yang and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Panel methods and their underlying theory are reviewed with regard to hydrodynamic analysis of propeller performance. Green's identity is used to convert the differential Laplace's equation into an integral equation. The velocity potential on the surface of the lifting body can be expressed by integrating the potential induced by source/doublet singularities distributed over the surface. The numerical discretizations of the boundary surface, singularity distributions, the integral equation, and the formulation of the panel method are discussed. The advantages of the application of panel methods in viscous/inviscid interactive procedures and propeller blade design are outlined. Results of propeller blade analysis with the panel method are presented, comparing the prediction of the VSAERO panel method and a vortex lattice method with experimental data. The panel method, which includes consideration of propeller hub effects, gives predictions in good agreement with experimental data. Keywords: Marine propellers hydrodynamic characteristics. (edc).
