This paper describes the technology for coupling CFD and FEM computations and for selecting the appropriate design waves. One core component for linking CFD and FEM is a repository for the ship hydrodynamic results (SHR). Another important component is an algorithm which maps CFD pressures to FEM nodal loads where CFD and FEM meshes need not coincide. Both the exchange file and the mapping algo...

CFD requires validation for complicated flow problems involving complex physics such as turbulence. Wind tunnels are still the most commonly used validation tools for CFD including physical modelling although some limited use of reliable DNS data base for simple geometries is recently becoming possible. One can observe the trend that a higher and higher demand on the accuracy of the wind tunnel...

Increasing demand on the performance of Subsea Production Systems (SPS) suggests a need for more detailed investigation of fluid behavior taking place in subsea equipment. Complete CFD cool down analyses of subsea equipment are very time demanding. The objective of this paper is to investigate a Locked CFD approach, which enables significant reduction of the computational time and at the same t...

Comparing results of inside refrigerating shelves. Here considered as obstacles refrigerator freezer a 2D rectangular enclosure one side assumed evaporator wall (cold wall) other Door (warm wall). Inside cabin takes natura...

Rare cells have the potential to improve our understanding of biological systems and the treatment of a variety of diseases; each of those applications requires a different balance of throughput, capture efficiency, and sample purity. Those challenges, coupled with the limited availability of patient samples and the costs of repeated design iterations, motivate the need for a robust set of engi...

Considerable progress in development and application of CFD for aeroengine internal flow systems has been made in recent years. CFD is regularly used in industry for assessment of air systems, and the performance of CFD for basic axisymmetric rotor/rotor and stator/rotor disc cavities with radial throughflow is largely understood and documented. Incorporation of three dimensional (3D) geometric...

Ducts are used to carry fluid in various applications in HVAC systems, thermal power plants, cement and other process industries. Such ducts are generally subjected to failure due to cyclic stresses either caused by high temperature fluctuations, mechanical vibrations or due acoustic vibrations caused due to the fluid flowing through the ducts. In this paper we study the failure of one such duc...
