Book The Theory and Practice of Hydrodynamics and Vibration

Download or read book The Theory and Practice of Hydrodynamics and Vibration written by Subrata Kumar Chakrabarti and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2002 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the basics of the hydrodynamics and vibration of structures subjected to environmental loads. It describes the interaction of hydrodynamics with the associated vibration of structures, giving simple explanations. Emphasis is placed on the applications of the theory to practical problems. Several case studies are provided to show how the theory outlined in the book is applied in the design of structures. Background material needed for understanding fluid-induced vibrations of structures is given to make the book reasonably self-sufficient. Examples are taken mainly from the novel structures that are of interest today, including ocean and offshore structures and components. Besides being a text for undergraduates, this book can serve as a handy reference for design engineers and consultants involved in the design of structures subjected to dynamics and vibration.

Book Hydrodynamic Propulsion and Its Optimization

Download or read book Hydrodynamic Propulsion and Its Optimization written by J.A. Sparenberg and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-12-31 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HYDRODYNAMIC PROPULSION AND ITS OPTIMIZATION ANALYTIC THEORY Hydrodynamic propulsion has been of major interest ever since craft took to the water. In the course of time, many attempts have been made to invent, develop, or to improve hydrodynamic propulsion devices. Remarkable achievements in this field were made essentially by experienced individuals, who were in need of reliable propulsion units such as paddle wheels, sculling devices, screw propellers, and of course, sails. The problem of minimizing the amount of input energy for a prescribed effective output was first investigated seriously at the beginning of this century. In 1919, BETZ presented a paper on air-screw propellers with minimum consumption of energy which could be applied to ship-screw propellers also. Next, attempts were made to optimize hydrodynamic propulsion units. Ensuing investigations concerned the optimization of the hydrodynamic system: ship-propeller. The first simple theory of ship propulsion which was presented considered more or less only thrust augmentation, wake processing and modification of propeller characteristics when operating behind the ships hull. This theory has been little improved meanwhile and is still useful, particularly with regard to practical ship design and for evaluating results of ship model tests. However, this theory is not adequate for optimization procedures necessary for high-technology propulsion, particularly for ship propellers utilizing propulsion improving devices such as tip end plates or tip fins at the propeller blades, spoilers in front of the propeller, asymmetrical stern etc.

Book Propeller induced Vibration

Download or read book Propeller induced Vibration written by Kareem Al-Taiby and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ship's propellers are main sources of onboard vibration that can have adverse effects on humans and machinery alike. A reliable design tool that allows the prediction of propeller induced vibration, in the early design phases of new constructions would help prevent damage or discomfort and reduce costs related to later modifications of the propellers. In an effort to obtain data on vibration generated by ship's propellers, tests can be performed on a ship model in a tow tank. Self-Propulsion, Resistance and Bollard tests are established tests used to characterize the ship's hydrodynamics in a tow tank. Recently some researchers are investigating the possibilities to help understand the how the propeller design affects the vibration and vibration propagation to the ship body. One of the main problems with these tests is the separation of vibrational contribution of the propeller versus the fundamental frequencies of the ship model. In this work, experimental model tests were performed to evaluate the pressure fluctuations created by the propeller on a vessels structure. Methods used to perform these tests included Experimental Modal Analysis and Operating Deflection Shape, the latter performed during the hydrodynamic tests. The results show how pressure measurements can be influenced by structural vibration and thus the importance of identifying ranges of vibrational effects from the ship models' structure during hydrodynamic testing to understand if structural vibrations need to be removed from the pressure sensor measurements to give an accurate representation of vibration effects due to the propeller.

Book Vibrations of a Marine Propeller Operating in a Nonuniform Inflow

Download or read book Vibrations of a Marine Propeller Operating in a Nonuniform Inflow written by James Emmert Brooks and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The effect of blade vibration on the unsteady forces developed by an elastic marine propeller is investigated for a controlled laboratory situation. The study involves the development of a theory for a flexible propeller operating in a spatially nonuniform inflow velocity field and a series of experimental tests. Measurements of unsteady propeller forces in a 24-inch water tunnel are presented for two model propellers whose fundamental resonance frequencies are excited by a nonuniform inflow field. Measured unsteady thrust and torque, presented as a function of excitation frequency, show distinctly different elastic effects--one propeller demonstrates a large force amplification near its resonance frequency while the other did not. The simple theoretical model explains the difference as being due to the differing amounts of induced hydrodynamic damping; there is a large hydrodynamic damping in one case and a small amount in the other case. Another result of the study is that blade vibration can significantly reduce the unsteady forces transmitted to the propeller shaft over a certain range of excitation frequencies. Calculated forces are in general agreement with the experimental measurements. (Author).
