Flow Problems

AbstractSolutions are found to two cusp-like free-surface flow problems involving the steady motion of an ideal fluid under the infinite-Froude-number approximation. The flow in each case is due to a submerged line source or sink, in the presence of a solid horizontal base.

We consider the outflow of water from the peak of a triangular ridge into a channel of finite depth. Solutions are computed for different flow rates and bottom angles. A numerical method is used to compute the flow from the source for small values of flow rate and it is found that there is a maximum flow rate beyond which steady solutions do not seem to exist. Limiting flows are computed for each geometrical configuration. One application of this work is as a model of saline water being returned to the ocean after desalination. References Craya, A.

The unsteady nonlinear potential flow induced by a submerged line source or sink is studied by a vortex sheet method, both to trace the free surface evolution and to explore the possible existence of steady-state solutions. Only steady-state flows have been considered by other investigators, and these flows have been insensitive to whether they are generated by a source or sink, except with respect to the flow direction along the streamlines. The time-dependent solution permits an assessment of the stability of previously found steady solutions, and also reveals differences between source and sink flows: for the infinite-depth case, steady stagnation-point-type solutions are found both for source flows and sink flows, above the critical value reported by other investigators; finally, it is shown that streamline patterns of steady stagnation-point flows are identical for source and sink flows only in the limiting case of infinite depth.

The simulation of free-surface flow around moored or floating objects faces a series of challenges, concerning the flow modelling and the numerical solution method. One of the challenges is the simulation of objects whose dynamics is determined by a two-way interaction with the incoming waves. The ‘traditional’ way of numerically coupling the flow dynamics with the dynamics of a floating object becomes unstable (or requires severe underrelaxation) when the added mass is larger than the mass of the object. To deal with this two-way interaction, a more simultaneous type of numerical coupling is being developed. The paper will focus on this issue. To demonstrate the quasi-simultaneous method, a number of simulation results for engineering applications from the offshore industry will be presented, such as the motion of a moored TLP platform in extreme waves, and a free-fall life boat dropping into wavy water.
