Abstract:
The development of high-performance aeroengine combustion chambers strongly depends on the accuracy and reliability of efficient numerical models. In the present work, a reacting solver with a steady laminar flamelet model and spray model has been developed in OpenFOAM and the solver details are presented. The solver is firstly validated by Sandia/ETH-Zurich flames. Furthermore, it is used to simulate nonpremixed kerosene/air spray combustion in an aeroengine combustion chamber with the RANS method. A comparison with available experimental data shows good agreement and validates the capability of the new developed solver in OpenFOAM.

Abstract:
In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of using DNS data and machine learning algorithms to assist RANS turbulence model development. High-fidelity DNS data are generated with the incompressible Navier–Stokes solver implemented in the spectral/hp element software framework Nektar++. Two test cases are considered: a turbulent channel flow and a stationary serpentine passage, representative of internal turbo-machinery cooling flow. The Python framework TensorFlow is chosen to train neural networks in order to address the known limitations of the Boussinesq approximation and a clustering based on flow features is run upfront to enable training on selected areas. The resulting models are implemented in the Rolls-Royce solver HYDRA and a posteriori predictions of velocity field and wall shear stress are compared to baseline RANS. The paper presents the fundamental elements of procedure applied, including a brief description of the tools and methods and improvements achieved.

Abstract:
Nowadays, as the development of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and the numerical wave tank (NWT) has advanced, numerical analysis has become increasingly useful and powerful for the ship designing and ship hydrodynamics. In this study, a momentum source wave-maker and an analytical relaxation wave absorber were embedded into 2D RANS equation model with RSM turbulence closure scheme to establish the NWT for ship designing and hydrodynamics. The VOF (volume-of-fluid) method was applied to accurately capture the water free surface. The body force-weighted scheme is chosen for pressure interpolation and the second order upwind scheme for discretization of the momentum equation. In order to calculate convection and diffusion fluxes through the control volume faces, PISO algorithm is adopted for pressure-velocity coupling. The momentum source function for wave generation and the analytical relaxation function for wave absorption were deduced for constructing the NWT (numerical wave tank). The proposed NWT was then validated by the laboratory measurements of Umeyama and the analytical solution, indicating that the constructed NWT is effective and accurate.

Abstract:
A 3D icing simulation code is developed in the open-source CFD toolbox OpenFOAM. A hybrid Cartesian/body-fitted meshing method is used to generate high-quality meshes around complex ice shapes. Steady-state 3D Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations are solved to provide the ensemble-averaged flow around the airfoil. Considering the multi-scale nature of droplet size distribution, and more importantly, to represent the less uniform nature of the Super-cooled Large Droplets (SLD), two droplet tracking methods are realized: the Eulerian method is used to track the small-size droplets (below 50 μm) for the sake of efficiency; the Lagrangian method with random sampling is used to track the large droplets (above 50 μm); the heat transfer of the surface overflow is solved on a virtual surface mesh; the ice accumulation is estimated via the Myers model; finally, the final ice shape is predicted by time marching. Limited by the availability of experimental data, validations are performed on 3D simulations of 2D geometries using the Eulerian and Lagrangian methods, respectively. The code proves to be feasible and accurate enough in predicting ice shapes. Finally, an icing simulation result of the M6 wing is presented to illustrate the full 3D capability.

Abstract:
Abstract. This paper details the background to the WakeBlaster model: a purpose-built, parabolic three-dimensional RANS solver, developed by ProPlanEn. WakeBlaster is a field model, rather than a single turbine model; it therefore eliminates the need for an empirical wake superposition model. It belongs to a class of very fast (a few core seconds, per flow case) mid-fidelity models, which are designed for industrial application in wind farm design, operation, and control. The domain is a three-dimensional structured grid, a node spacing of a tenth of a rotor diameter, by default. WakeBlaster uses eddy viscosity turbulence closure, which is parameterized by the local shear, time-lagged turbulence development, and stability corrections for ambient shear and turbulence decay. The model prescribes a profile at the end of the near wake, and the spatial variation of ambient flow, by using output from an external flow model.

Abstract:
This paper analyses the fluid–seabed–structure interactions (FSSI) around the open-ended pile by applying the in-house solver established on the open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) platform. The Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations are solved to simulate the hydrodynamic interactions between waves and open-ended piles. Biot’s poro-elastic theory (quasi-static model) is used to reproduce the wave-induced seabed responses. The parameter analysis indicates that the wave period, degree of saturation of seabed and pile diameter have a great influence on the development of the transient seabed liquefaction depth around the pile. In addition, the distribution of the pore water pressure vs soil depth in the inner zone of the pile presents a “V” shape rotated 90 degrees counterclockwise.

Abstract:
Practical aspects concerning the use of 3D Navier-Stokes solvers as prediction tools for micro-siting of wind energy installations are considered. Micro-siting is an important issue for a successful application of wind energy in sites of complex terrain. There is a constantly increasing interest in using mean wind flow predictions based on Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) solvers in order to minimize the number of required field measurements. In this connection, certain numerical aspects, such as the extent of the numerical flow domain, the choice of the appropriate inflow boundary conditions, and the grid resolution, can decisively affect the quality of the predictions. In the present paper, these aspects are analyzed with reference to the Askervein hill data base of full scale measurements. The objective of the work is to provide guidelines with respect to the definition of appropriate boundary conditions and the construction of an adequate and effective computational grid when a RANS solver is implemented. In particular, it is concluded that (a) the ground roughness affects the predictions significantly, (b) the computational domain should have an extent permitting the full development of the flow before entering the region of interest, and (c) the quality of the predictions at the local altitude maxima depends on the grid density in the main flow direction.

Abstract:
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based optimization of a surface combatant is presented with the following main objectives:development of a high-performance optimization module for a Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) solver for with-free-surface condition; anddemonstration of the capability of the optimization method for flow- and wave-field optimization of the Model 5415 hull form. The optimization module is based on extension of successive quadratic programming (SQP) for higher-performance optimization method by introduction of parallel computing architecture, that is, message passing interface (MPI) protocol. It is shown that the present parallel SQP module is nearly m(= 2k+ 1; k is number of design parameters) times faster than conventional SQP, and the computational speed does not depend on the number of design parameters. The RANS solver is CFDSHIP-IOWA, a general-purpose parallel multiblock RANS code based on higher-order upwind finite difference and a projection method for velocity-pressure coupling; it offers the capability of free-surface flow calculation. The focus of the present study is on code development and demonstration of capability, which justifies use of a relatively simple turbulence model, a free-surface model without breaking model, static sinkage and trim, and simplified design constraints and geometry modeling. An overview is given of the high-performance optimization method and CFDSHIP-IOWA, and results are presented for stern optimization for minimization of transom wave field disturbance; sonar dome optimization for minimization of sonar-dome vortices; and bow optimization for minimization of bow wave. In conclusion, the present work has successfully demonstrated the capability of the CFD-based optimization method for flow- and wave-field optimization of the Model 5415 hull form. The present method is very promising and warrants further investigations for computer-aided design (CAD)-based hull form modification methods and more appropriate design constraints.

Abstract:
Oscillating water column (OWC) is an advanced form of wave energy converter (WEC). This study aims at improving the efficiency of an amended OWC through a novel methodology for simulating several vertical plates within the chamber. This paper provides a numerical investigation considering one, two, three, and four vertical plates. The open field operation and manipulation (OpenFOAM) solver is verified based on the Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equation. Results show the number and the position of plates where the convertor’s efficiency improves. The work undertaken here also revealed a reduction in the net force imposed on the convertor’s structure, especially the front wall. Consequently, adding plates acquires more efficiency with lower force on the system.
