In-line force on a cylinder translating in oscillatory flow   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

T. Sarpkaya  M. Storm 《Applied Ocean Research》1985,7(4):188-196

Experiments were conducted with smooth and sand-roughened cylinders moving with constant velocity in a sinusoidally oscillating flow to determine the drag and inertia coefficients and to examine the effect of wake biasing on the modified Morison equation. The various flow parameters such as the relative cylinder velocity. Reynolds number, and the Keulegan-Carpenter number were varied systematically and the in-line force measured simultaneously. The principal results, equally valid for both smooth and rough cylinders, are as follows: the drag coefficient decreases with increasing relative current for a given Reynolds number and Keulegan-Carpenter number; the effect of wake biasing on the drag and inertia coefficients is most pronounced in the drag-inertia dominated regime; and the two-term Morison equation with force coefficients obtained under no-current conditions is not applicable to the prediction of wave and current induced loads on circular cylinders.  相似文献   

Analysis of single and tandem cylinder data using an orthogonal Volterra model approach     

I.A. Sibetheros  J.M. Niedzwecki   《Ocean Engineering》2005,32(2):881-156

The development of a definitive predictive model that accurately accounts for the nonlinear hydrodynamics and structural response behavior observed in arrays of closely spaced risers on deep water structures will require a more detailed understanding of this fluid–structure interaction. Through the analysis and interpretation of data from model basin tests on single and paired tandem cylinder configurations this study is directed at uncovering the nature of some aspects of this nonlinear response behavior using an orthogonal third-order Volterra technique that can delineate between linear, quadratic and cubic nonlinear frequency dependent behavior. As part of the analysis procedure the data was organized in input–output pairs that would provide logical groupings of the measured quantities. The data pairs presented in this study include wave excitation and inline cylinder displacement, wave excitation and transverse cylinder displacement, wave excitation and inline reaction force, and, upstream cylinder and downstream cylinder response. This information is presented in terms of spectral and coherence plots. The single cylinder data is presented as a means to contrast the behavior of the tandem cylinders. Both configurations were analyzed at two different pretensions adding another dimension to this investigation. It is shown that although a primary variable such as displacement may be more easily measured, pretension and force measurements provide an important key to our understanding of this difficult problem.  相似文献   

Wave–current interaction with a vertical square cylinder     

Pengzhi Lin  C. W. Li   《Ocean Engineering》2003,30(7):855-876

A three-dimensional numerical model is developed in this study to investigate the problem of wave–current–body interaction. The model solves the spatially averaged Navier–Stokes equations. Turbulence effects are modeled by a subgrid-scale (SGS) model using the concept of large eddy simulation (LES). The model is employed to study the wave–current interaction with a square cylinder that is mounted on the bottom and vertically pierces the free surface. The force analysis demonstrates that the presence of waves can reduce both the strength and frequency of vortex shedding induced by a uniform current due to the nonlinear wave–current interaction. The free surface elevation, strain rates of the mean flow, and eddy viscosity are found to closely correlate with the mechanism of vortex shedding. It is also shown that when the vortex shedding is neglected in the calculation such as by the potential flow approach, one may significantly underestimate the magnitude of in-line force. The energy spectral analysis reveals that there exist initiating, growing, and decaying regions for shedding vortices around the cylinder. In the vortex initiating region, both coherent and turbulent structures are nearly two-dimensional that become three-dimensional in the vortex growing region. The kinetic energy of both coherent and turbulent motions is dissipated in the vortex decaying region, within which the mean flow gradually returns back to two-dimensional.  相似文献   

Coupled BEM-FEM Analysis of the Large-Diameter Cylinder Structure System   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

A method of coupled BEM-FEM analysis for the elastic spatial structure system is presented. It can be applied to the calculation of the stress and deformation of the large-diamater cylinder structure system and it is suitable for symmetric or non-symmetric structures under the distributed or concentrated load. Numerical examples show that the proposed method and computer program BEFEM are quite efficient in the analysis of the large-diameter cylinder structure problems in ocean engineering.  相似文献   

A Study of Lift Force and Instantaneous Velocity Field Around an Oscillating Circular Cylinder     

C.A.Greated 《中国海洋工程》1997,(4)

-Force measurements of oscillatory flow acting on a single circular cylinder have been carriedout.The experiments were done by oscillating a circular cylinder in still water.Instantaneous forces and ve-locity fields around the cylinder were measured by Particle Image Velocimetry(PIV).The Keulegan-Car-penter number(KC)varied in the range from 5 to 20 and the viscous parameter β=Re/KC was set at500(Re is Reynolds number).It was found that the strength and frequency of the lift force increased withKC number,the main frequency of the lift force being three times the frequency of the oscillatory flow atKC=20.The movement and strength of the vortices around the cylinder are discussed for differentKC numbers.  相似文献   

Experimental study of forces on a cylinder in oscillatory flow with a cross current     

P.K. Stansby  N. El-Khairy  G.N. Bullock 《Applied Ocean Research》1983,5(4):195-203

Forces on a circular cylinder have been measured with nominally two-dimensional current and oscillatory flow at right angles. Previous results for purely oscillatory flow defined by a Keulegan-Carpenter number, Kc, have been extended for reduced velocities, Vr, in the range 3–10. For Kc<7 modification of the Karman street by oscillation is complex and locking-on has a dominant influence. For Kc > 7 simply adding forces due to the current and oscillation as though in isolation generally gives conservative results. The ‘current’ drag shows considerable variation and can even be negative. The Morison fit to the in-line force is generally less satisfactory when there is a current and can be wholly inadequate.  相似文献

A Finite Element Solution of Wave Forces on Submerged Horizontal Circular Cylinders   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

赵明  滕斌  谭丽 《中国海洋工程》2004,18(3):335-346

In this paper, a numerical model is established for estimating the wave forces on a submerged horizontal circular cylinder. For predicting the wave motion, a set of two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations is solved numerically with a finite element method. In order to track the moving non-linear wave surface boundary, the Navier-Stokes equations are discretized in a moving mesh system. After each computational time step, the mesh is modified according to the changed wave surface boundary. In order to stabilize the numerical procedure, a three-step finite element method is applied in the time integration. The water sloshing in a tank and wave propagation over a submerged bar are simulated for the first time to validate the present model. The computational results agree well with the analytical solution and the experimental data.Finally, the model is applied to the simulation of interaction between waves and a submerged horizontal circular cylinder.The effects of the KC number and the cylinder depth on the wave forces are studied.  相似文献   

Simulation and Analysis of a Gravity Cyh''''nder''''s Stability in Short-Crested Sea

Generally, the reliability of ami -sliding and anti-overturning stability of an isolated gravity cylinder in a certain working period can be evaluated only when the statistical properties of short term stability are given first. The authors used numerical method to simulate the stability state function of a cylinder in short-crested sea, and further to get the probabilitical characteristics of the structure's stability by time domain analysis. The external loads appeared in the state functions include horizontal wave force, lift force and the respective moments, and the loads are correlated by co- spectrum. The numerical method presented in this paper can be used not only to solve short term reliability problem directly, but to calculate and analyse the long term reliability problem as well. For circular cylinders, an example of simulation and analysis is displayed in this paper.  相似文献
