Hull Form Optimization for Hydrodynamic Performance
Marine Technology and SNAME News, 2004A method for optimizing hull forms with respect to their hydrodynamic performance in calm and rough water is presented. The method is based on an initial optimization of a parent hull form for seakeeping and the improvement of the resulting optimum hull form for calm water resistance. In the first part of the method, variant hull forms differing from a

Hydrodynamic performance of algal bioreactors
Photobioreactors are engineered bioreactors employed to cultivate microalgae in a controlled environment (to control external factors and contamination) and achieve a high biomass productivity. There are different types of bioreactors, but the common forms, which are used for algal cultivation, are open ponds, vertical columns photobioreactors (bubble ...Zahra Zarei +3 more

Hydrodynamic performance of multiple-row slotted breakwaters
Journal of Marine Science and Application, 2016This study examines the hydrodynamic performance of multiple-row vertical slotted breakwaters. We developed a mathematical model based on an eigenfunction expansion method and a least squares technique for Stokes second-order waves. The numerical results obtained for limiting cases of double-row and triple-row walls are in good agreement with results ...

The Hydrodynamical Performance of Migratory Salmon
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1961ABSTRACT The annual spawning migration of Pacific Coast salmon up the Columbia and Amur rivers has been analysed as an experiment on the maximum range of an un-refuelled vehicle, since the fish do not eat during this migration. The fuel (primarily fat) available to real fish is compared to that computed for an equivalent rigid vehicle ...

Expanded Bed Column Bioreactor Performance and Hydrodynamics
The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, 2003AbstractStudies on the removal of nitrogen constituents by a dual media expanded bed bioreactor showed substantial removals of about 85% COD and 80% total‐N. Kinetic parameters obtained were: for growth, YH = 0.23mg/mg, µH = 0.278day—1, KH = 461mg/L and bH = 0.0151day—1 and for denitrification, YHD = 0.670mg/mg, µHD = 0.205day—1, KHD = 0.54mg/L and bHD

Hydrodynamic Performance Test of a Turbopump Assembly
Transactions of the Korean Society of Mechanical Engineers B, 2008Abstract Hydrodynamic performance test of a turbopump for a liquid rocket engine is carried out. The turbopump is composed of an oxidizer pump, a fuel pump and a turbine, and the two pumps are driven by the turbine. In the test, water is used for the pumps as working media and air is used for the turbine.

Hydrodynamic optimization of performance of blunt ships
Journal of Hydrodynamics, 2006Abstract Various research works on hydrodynamic performance of the general streamlined ships in the domain of ship fluid mechanics have been implemented during the past several decades. However, as to those special types of ship, say, the blunt ship, relevant investigative work is never put on the top of the agenda.
