Hydrodynamic Coefficients of a Mooring Tower

Journal of Energy Resources Technology, 1983
Wave tank tests have been performed on an articulated tower in order to determine the hydrodynamic coefficients associated with the tower. The tower was a uniform diameter rigid cylinder and incorporated a localized load sensing device. It was tested in three different phases: 1) fixed in regular waves, 2) mechanically oscillated in still water, and 3)

Hydrodynamic coefficients for inclined cylinders

Ocean Engineering, 1998
Abstract The wave induced dynamic pressures around a circular cylinder of diameter 0.2 m due to regular waves were measured in a wave flume in a water depth of 1 m and in a wave basin in a water depth of 3 m. The experimental investigations were carried out with the cylinder inclined along and against the direction of wave propagation.

Hydrodynamic Coefficients for Straked Risers

Volume 6A: Pipeline and Riser Technology, 2014
A considerable challenge in deep water field developments is the possibility of Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV) of flexible risers due to presence of high currents. The most common remedy is the use of VIV suppression devices such as helical strakes. The background for this study is the lack of guidelines for estimation of hydrodynamic ...

Hydrodynamics and Transport Coefficients

2021
One of the major applications of the holographic correspondence in strongly interacting plasmas is the characterization of transport of conserved quantities, such as energy-momentum, charge and angular momentum. Magnitude of these currents are determined by the associated transport coefficients that quantify dissipation in the system, such as shear and

Bridge Piers—Hydrodynamic Force Coefficients

Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1968
The forces experienced by models of three different types of bridge piers have been measured for angles of inclination between the stream flow and the pier axis in the range 0○ to 50○, and the results are presented in the form of drag coefficients and lift coefficients.

Hydrodynamic friction coefficients of coated spherical particles

The Journal of Chemical Physics, 2009
The complete set of hydrodynamic friction coefficients for a spherical particle coated with a porous layer and immersed in a viscous fluid is evaluated in analytic form. The coefficients allow the calculation of the flow disturbance caused by the coated particle for any incident flow which satisfies the creeping flow equations.

Hydrodynamic coefficients for vertical composite cylinders

Ocean Engineering, 1984
Abstract An efficient method of calculation for vertical, composite cylinders at finite depth is presented. Hydrodynamic coefficients calculated by this method are compared with numerical results obtained by a surface element method.

Quantifying Hydrodynamic Coefficients of Complex Structures

OCEANS 2007 - Europe, 2007
This paper provides a comparison between calculating hydrodynamic coefficients based on engineering publications or by using computational fluid dynamics [CFD]. The CFD examines various computational codes and compares how the various turbulence models examined performed, as well as the effect of grid refinement on the resultant hydrodynamic ...

Hydrodynamic Coefficients For Macrd-Roughnesses

Offshore Technology Conference, 1981
ABSTRACT Consideration is given to the drag of cylinders in fluid flow as influenced from the very large and lumpy roughnesses of marine growths. A means of characterizing the effective diameter is based on the Strouhal number of the roughened cylinder.

Hydrodynamic Coefficients for Risers With Strakes

21st International Conference on Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering, Volume 1, 2002
Drag and inertia coefficients for offshore risers with strakes have been derived from model tests, and are reported in this paper. The coefficients correspond to flow conditions of forced oscillations with tow in the transverse direction, and without tow. For the forced oscillations the Keulegan-Carpenter (KC) range was 1 to 5.
