RANS analysis of the self-propulsion performance for a twin-screw ship

open access: yesInternational Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering
This study presents a comprehensive estimation of full-scale self-propulsion performance for a high-speed, twin-screw, single-skeg surface vessel using Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS)-based computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Resistance, propeller

A Review of Progress and Hydrodynamic Design of Integrated Motor Pump-Jet Propulsion

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
The integrated motor pump-jet (IMP) propulsion system is a form of modern underwater vehicle propulsion that uses a modular design paradigm. The integrated motor propulsor is a compact construction consisting of a permanent magnet (PM) and a pump-jet ...

Hydrodynamics of the Oscillating Wave Surge Converter in the open ocean [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
A potential flow model is derived for a large flap-type oscillating wave energy converter in the open ocean. Application of the Green's integral theorem in the fluid domain yields a hypersingular integral equation for the jump in potential across the ...

Hydrodynamic performance and heat generation by centrifugal pumps [PDF]

open access: yesPerfusion, 2006
For over a century, centrifugal pumps (CP) have been used in various applications, from large industrial pumps to flow pumps for aquariums. However, the use of CP as blood pumps has a rather short history. Consequently, the hydraulic performance data for a blood CP are limited.

Efficiency of Fish Propulsion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
It is shown that the system efficiency of a self-propelled flexible body is ill-defined unless one considers the concept of quasi-propulsive efficiency, defined as the ratio of the power needed to tow a body in rigid-straight condition over the power it ...

Research on the Hydrodynamic Performance of a Pentamaran in Calm Water and Regular Waves

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
As a typical multi-hull ship, the pentamaran has a wider deck, higher damage stability, and low-speed seaworthiness in harsh sea conditions compared with other multi-hull types such as the catamaran and trimaran, having more potential for becoming a new ...

Electro-hydrodynamic synchronization of piezoelectric flags

open access: yes, 2016
Hydrodynamic coupling of flexible flags in axial flows may profoundly influence their flapping dynamics, in particular driving their synchronization. This work investigates the effect of such coupling on the harvesting efficiency of coupled piezoelectric
