Book excerpt: Project Report from the year 2016 in the subject Engineering - Civil Engineering, grade: AA, Priyadarshini College of Engineering, Nagpur, course: B.E AERONAUTICAL ENGINEERING, language: English, abstract: This text depicts how a low speed water tunnel was designed and fabricated, as well as tested and analysed. The low speed recirculating type water tunnel was successfully designed and fabricated. The designing was done by taking into consideration of the Reynolds no. flow velocity, boundary layer formation, cavitation number and Froude's number. Theoretical and computational studies were made to decide the shape and the size of the various components of the low speed water tunnel. Uniformity in the setup of main objective and was successfully achieved. The setup consists of an inlet plenum with baffle to reduce turbulence or splashing, honeycomb structure, converging section, test section and wide angle diffuser and outlet module suitable low power single phase motor was selected for continuous flow of water in the setup. The water was recirculated using this motor and appropriate plumbing system. All the components were designed, analyzed, constructed and installed successfully .General purpose polymer was used as a ground material for the fabrication purpose. Necessary up gradations were made during various stages of the project. Flow visualization over the test bodies was successfully visualized using a dye injection system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project goal was to construct a water tunnel that can used to do the experiment to analyze the hydrodynamic behavior of submerged bodies in flowing water. A new design was proposed to overcome the problem occurred from the project done at Wilkey University several years ago where it is can reproduce condition that can be decreased the reflection of water in tunnel. In order to design a water delivery system to the tunnel and produce an adequate flow, a 0.5hp pumps and 250 liters of reservoir were used to produce a 50L/min of velocity in the tunnel. Two experiments were conducted to test the functionality of the water tunnel and also the operation for the system. From the result obtained, there is no problem to deliver the water to the tunnel but it is still need some improvement to increase the water velocity in the tunnel.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Dynamic Devices and Solutions Lab at the University of Georgia (UGA) recently installed a high-speed water tunnel to conduct fluid-structure interaction (FSI) experiments. The tunnel is custom-designed to deliver uniform flow up to 10 m/s through a square test section. This work presents an overview of water tunnels, their primary components, and their functions. It details the design and fabrication of key components of the UGA water tunnel and provides justification for design decisions. It discusses instruments for measuring velocity and turbulence and for flow visualization. The qualification procedure and results are also described. Tunnel flow parameters were identified using a laser doppler anemometry system, and results show that the water tunnel generates uniform, laminar flow within the test section for flow speeds between 1 and 10 m/s, while also maintaining boundary layer thicknesses below 35 mm. Turbulence intensity values averaged 0.50% for flow outside the boundary layer.

Download or read book Design and Construction of Tunnels written by Pietro Lunardi and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-02-20 with total page 580 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work illustrates how the Analysis of Controlled Deformation in Rocks and Soils (ADECO-RS) is used in the design and the construction of tunnels. This is a very new and effective way of tunnel construction. The ADECO-RS approach makes a clear distinction between the design and the construction stages and allows reliable forecasts of construction times and costs to be made. It uses the advance core (the core of ground ahead of the face) as a structural tool for the long and short term stabilisation of tunnels, after its rigidity has first been regulated using conservation techniques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document covers the study, design and construction of a low cost Water Tunnel to perform practical studies and lab work at EETAC (UPC Castelldefels). This project has been divided in three principal phases: Study, Design and Construction. In the first phase of the project, a theoretical study regarding the fluid dynamics of water tunnels has been done. This study is essential in order to get an optimal design of the Water Tunnel and also fulfil the initial design requirements. The main design requirements are to achieve a homogeneous velocity at the test region and the capacity to work with Reynolds numbers comprised between 500 and 1000. Once these requirements were established, the design phase started. SolidWorks was used to create the design. Once the design was created, it needs to be validated. For this purpose, three different simulations were performed in order to validate the design with a Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. The chosen software was ANSYS. The objective of the first simulation was to validate the property of symmetry inside the Water Tunnel. The symmetry inside the Water Tunnel was proved and a second simulation with half the control volume and a finer mesh was realized. Finally, in order to prove the mesh convergence, one last simulation was done. All these simulations proved that the Water Tunnel design fulfilled all the initial design requirements. The construction procedure begun once the design was validated. This last phase is still ongoing; the tunnel is being built by Metalvent S.A company. This Water Tunnel has been designed with the objective of reducing costs when compared it with other water tunnels build globally. Also, the size of the Water Tunnel is also minimized so it can be a part of the laboratory equipment in EETAC. This Water Tunnel will be an interesting contribution to the University equipment, and thanks to it, other projects will be done, from implementing new systems that improve the Water tunnel to experiments that uses the Water Tunnel as the main tool.
