ABSTRACT This study investigates the hydrodynamic influence of forward transom tapering on a displacement catamaran hull using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations. Five taper configurations ranging from a vertical transom base design to a fully tapered stern (1.00B) were evaluated over a wide Froude number range (Fr = .3 to 1.0).

MODELLING OF BUBBLE FORMATION WITH THE AID OF CFD
Results of a numerical simulation of the bubble formation process obtained with the aid of computational fluid dynamics (CFD) approach are presented. A solution of the momentum balance (Navier-Stokes) equations was coupled with the volume of fluid (VOF)

The volume-of-fluid (VOF) approach is a mature technique for simulating two-phase flows. However, VOF simulation of phase-change heat transfer is still in its infancy.

Uncertainties exist in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of complex metallurgical processes, even when partly validated by laboratory experiments. rCFD enables computationally efficient prediction of long‐term RH degassing and can be adapted to vary flow conditions.

Numerical Simulation of an Air-Core Vortex and Its Suppression at an Intake Using OpenFOAM
A common challenge faced by engineers in the hydraulic industry is the formation of free surface vortices at pump and power intakes. This undesirable phenomenon which sometimes entrains air could result in several operational problems: noise, vibration ...

ABSTRACT Studies on cell cryopreservation have been limited by the complexity of the freezing process and challenges on controlling ice formation, managing cooling rates, and optimizing cryoprotectant concentrations. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of bottom‐up and conventional radial freezing on the viability of mammalian cells ...

Numerical simulation of bubble generation in a T-junction [PDF]
We present a numerical study of the formation of mini-bubbles in a 2D T-junction by means of the fluid dynamics numerical code JADIM. Numerical simulations were carried out for different flow conditions, giving rise to results on the behavior of bubble ...

A hybrid RANS‐LES turbulence model adapted for the Moving Particle Semi‐implicit method is employed to investigate a turbulent free surface flow. A method based on the cell‐linked list is proposed to speed up the nearest wall search for the turbulence model.

Assessment of Vehicle Stability Processes Under Unsteady Flow Conditions
ABSTRACT The vehicle stability criteria are based on experimental and theoretical studies that do not account for the unsteady nature of floods. The rapid variation of depths and velocities in floods causes an additional hydrodynamic force in the direction of the flow, destabilising a vehicle that would otherwise be safe in steady flow conditions.
