PRESSURE DISTRIBUTIONS ON A VERTICAL BREAKWATER: EXPERIMENTAL

Modeling of Vertical Breakwater Wall under Bilateral Seawater Load

Floating breakwaters are widely used due to their various advantages over stationary breakwaters. Lots of researches have been done on hydrodynamics and the type of bracing of these kinds of structures in recent years. In this study, numerical modeling of stresses caused by collision waves has been investigated. For this purpose, samples of floating breakwaters have been modeled in ANSYS softwa...

Experimental Analysis of a Vertical, Double-Effect Diffusion Solar Still

numerical simulation of the interaction of a broken wave and a vertical breakwater

in this paper, a two-dimensional reynolds averaged navier-stokes (rans) model is developed to simulate the shoaling, breaking and overtopping of a solitary wave over a vertical breakwater. turbulence intensity is described by using a k turbulence closure model and the free surface configuration is tracked by volume of fluid (vof) technique. to validate the numerical model the simulation result...

Effect of Vertical Plates on Reducing Vortex Using Experimental Data

This paper is about experimental results for partial reduction of vortex at vertical pipe intakes. One of the easiest and practical ways of reducing vortex effect is to use anti-vortex plates or baffles. These plates can be used to avoid the vortex completely or partially. This paper will concentrate on the latter case. Rectangular plates with different dimensions have been placed at different ...
