PMM tests in a circulating water channel and nonlinear analysis

As a result of frequent marine disasters leading to the loss of human life and pollution of vast areas of the ocean, ship manoeuvrability has become a very important characteristic of ship design. Among several recent experimental techniques to determine ship manoeuvrability, the most popular is captive model testing using a planar motion mechanism (PMM). This article describes some tests, analyses, and results of PMM tests in a circulating water channel (CWC) using a model of a training ship. The hydrodynamic forces and moments acting on a model of the training ship Shioji Maru in pure yawing motion were measured, and hydrodynamic derivatives were obtained using two different methods of analysis: singular value decomposition (a least-squares fit method) and Fourier analysis. Derivatives obtained from the tests were used to simulate the turning trajectory of the actual ship, and these were compared with the results of sea trials. The results indicate that both methods of analysis yield fairly similar derivatives. The simulation results were also found to be a close match with the trial results.

一种基于CFD的水动力系数计算新方法(英文)

Applications of computational fluid dynamic (CFD) to the maritime industry continue to grow with the increasing development of computers. Numerical approaches have evolved to a level of accuracy which allows them to be applied for hydrodynamic computations in industry areas. Hydrodynamic tests, especially planar-motion-mechanism (PMM) tests are simulated by CFD software -FLUENT, and all of the corresponding hydrodynamic coefficients are obtained, which satisfy the need of establishing the simulation system to evaluate maneuverability of vehicles during the autonomous underwater vehicle scheme design stage. The established simulation system performed well in tests.

水下滑翔机附加质量数值计算

水下滑翔机的附加质量对其运动状态影响较大,本文采用了Hess-Smith（面元法）方法编制了计算任意三维物体附加质量的程序,利用Gambit软件对水下滑翔机进行网格划分,计算出实验室所研制的水下滑翔机附加质量,同时利用CFD（Computational Fluid Dynamics）技术,结合动网格技术和UDF（User-Defined Function）,对水下滑翔机进行了PMM（Planar Motion Mechanism）试验模拟,并与Hess-Smith方法得到的结果进行对比,分析两者之间的特点和各自优势。     

平面运动机构试验CFD仿真影响因素分析

为提高基于重叠网格法的平面运动机构试验的仿真精度,以SUBOFF标模为计算对象,对计算域大小、时间步长、运动频率和湍流模式等参数进行计算对比。结果表明:内部运动区域的大小对计算结果的影响可忽略;综合效率和精度,时间步长取1个周期300步较好;采用Realizable k-ε湍流模式与采用SST k-ω湍流模式得到的结果相差较小,前者与试验结果更为符合;当振幅取0.04 m或0.04 rad时,运动频率取0.1 Hz～0.5 Hz均可,对结果的影响相对较小;单个频率下的结果具有较大的随机误差,需根据多个频率进行线性仿真。采用研究所得方法进行仿真分析,并将仿真结果与试验结果相对比,发现加速度导数、位置导数和旋转导数的误差分别在35%、23%和33%以内,显现出模拟结果具有较高的精度,满足工程初步分析中的精度要求。
