Download or read book Fundamentals of Cavitation written by Jean-Pierre Franc and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-22 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book treats cavitation, which is a unique phenomenon in the field of hyd- dynamics, although it can occur in any hydraulic machinery such as pumps, propellers, artificial hearts, and so forth. Cavitation is generated not only in water, but also in any kind of fluid, such as liquid hydrogen. The generation of cavitation can cause severe damage in hydraulic machinery. Therefore, the prevention of cavitation is an important concern for designers of hydraulic machinery. On the contrary, there is great potential to utilize cavitation in various important applications, such as environmental protection. There have been several books published on cavitation, including one by the same authors. This book differs from those previous ones, in that it is both more physical and more theoretical. Any theoretical explanation of the cavitation phenomenon is rather difficult, but the authors have succeeded in explaining it very well, and a reader can follow the equations easily. It is an advantage in reading this book to have some understanding of the physics of cavitation. Therefore, this book is not an introductory text, but a book for more advanced study. However, this does not mean that this book is too difficult for a beginner, because it explains the cavitation phenomenon using many figures. Therefore, even a beginner on cavitation can read and can understand what cavitation is. If the student studies through this book (with patience), he or she can become an expert on the physics of cavitation.

Book Numerical Prediction of Underwater Noise Induced by Non cavitating cavitating Propellers

Download or read book Numerical Prediction of Underwater Noise Induced by Non cavitating cavitating Propellers written by Seungnam Kim and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 520 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this work, a systematic procedure of analyzing marine propeller performance and its underwater acoustics is delineated. The main focus is laid on the numerical prediction of hull pressure fluctuations and far-field acoustics induced by marine propellers via frequency- or time-domain approaches. As the first step, a hydrodynamic boundary element method (BEM) is implemented to analyze the comprehensive marine propeller performance in open water and ship-behind conditions. An elaborate numerical scheme modeling developed tip vortex cavitation is proposed for cavitating propellers. In the frequency domain approach, a potential-based panel method (or pressure-BEM) solving for the diffraction potential on the ship hull is coupled with the hydrodynamic BEM to predict the propeller-induced hull pressure fluctuations. Infinite speed of sound is assumed in the near-field, neglecting the time travel of acoustic waves to reduce the Helmholtz equation to the Laplace equation, which can be solved by a standard BEM solver. Far-field underwater noise is investigated in the time domain using the Ffowcs Williams-Hawkings (FW-H) formulation. The model propeller is mounted on the ship with an infinite plane assumed at the design draft to consider the pressure release or solid wall boundary conditions. Time-dependent surface quantities from the hydrodynamic analysis are taken as the known noise sources to the FW-H equation given in the form proposed by Farassat. The complex hull geometry and its disturbance to the medium are considered by solving the boundary integral equations. A half-space domain is modeled by modifying standard full-space Green's function to consider the image model beyond the infinite plane. The propeller-induced noise, its reflections from the hull, and their sums as the total noise will be investigated in full-space or half-space domains. Numerical predictions, including the time history of acoustic pressures and noise spectra, under various operating conditions are compared with experimental measurements, observations, and results from finite volume methods to validate the feasibility and accuracy of the present method

Book Advanced Experimental and Numerical Techniques for Cavitation Erosion Prediction

Download or read book Advanced Experimental and Numerical Techniques for Cavitation Erosion Prediction written by Ki-Han Kim and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-07-08 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a comprehensive treatment of the cavitation erosion phenomenon and state-of-the-art research in the field. It is divided into two parts. Part 1 consists of seven chapters, offering a wide range of computational and experimental approaches to cavitation erosion. It includes a general introduction to cavitation and cavitation erosion a detailed description of facilities and measurement techniques commonly used in cavitation erosion studies, an extensive presentation of various stages of cavitation damage (including incubation and mass loss) and insights into the contribution of computational methods to the analysis of both fluid and material behavior. The proposed approach is based on a detailed description of impact loads generated by collapsing cavitation bubbles and a physical analysis of the material response to these loads. Part 2 is devoted to a selection of nine papers presented at the International Workshop on Advanced Experimental and Numerical Techniques for Cavitation Erosion Prediction (Grenoble, France, 1-2 March 2011) representing the forefront of research on cavitation erosion. Innovative numerical and experimental investigations illustrate the most advanced breakthroughs in cavitation erosion research.

This book was released on 2020-12-29 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Marine propulsors are key components of the many thousands of ships and boats operating in oceans, lakes, and rivers around the world. The performance of propulsors are important for the environmental impact of ships, underwater noise impact on aquatic fauna, and crew and passenger comfort and safety. This book presents nineteen papers devoted to the hydrodynamics of different types of marine propulsors (conventional propellers, thrusters, and novel solutions). Most of the papers are extended papers from the sixth International Symposium on Marine Propulsors (SMP 2019). Several of the papers deal with cavitation, vortices, and energy saving devices. The papers present high-quality research performed using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Experimental Fluid Dynamics (EFD) as well Artificial Intelligence (AI).
