Abstract:
Aiming at hydrodynamic performance prediction for hydroplane motion, numerical simulation calculation for direct route motion of a hydroplane was carried out under FLUENT software platform by using VOF method and RNG k-ε model and solving Navier-Stokes equation. Evolution of ship resistance was obtained as the velocity change, and flow field situation and dynamic pressure variation of hydroplane hull bottom were reflected intuitively. By comparing the results of FLUENT calculation and ship model experiment and theoretical estimation, analyzing, especially wake current, it was verified that numerical simulation calculation of hydroplane direct route motion and hydrodynamic performance prediction based on FLUENT are feasible and precise enough.

Abstract:
Dalam pengoperasian kapal selam, olah gerak (maneuver) yang baik diperlukan pada saat melakukan serangan maupun menghindar dari serangan musuh. Salah satu komponen teknologi kapal selam yang perlu dikembangkan untuk mencapai maneuver yang baik adalah komponen hydroplane yang tersusun pada bagian after body kapal selam. Kapal selam itu dapat melakukan olah gerak vertikal mapun horizontal dengan menggunakan sistem kendali gerak (hydroplane). Ukuran geometri dan bentuk lambung dari kapal selam mempengaruhi karakteristik maneuver kapal selam. Untuk mencapai karakteristik maneuver yang diinginkan diperlukan perancangan ulang sistem kendali hydroplane. Penelitian ini diawali dengan membuat variasi bentuk after body kapal selam dan memprediksi lintasan gerak melingkar kapal selam. Perhitungan gaya hidrodinamika dan momen dilakukan secara numerik dengan menggunakan software Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD-CFX). Kemudian dengan menggunakan software MATLAB , data-data hasil dari perhitungan CFD dapat dimasukkan ke dalam persamaan untuk diturunkan menjadi kurva yang menunjukkan lintasan gerak melingkar kapal selam.

Abstract:
L’écoulement au sein d’une flaque d’eau lors du passage d’un pneumatique en roulement est étudié dans ce travail. Une méthode de mesure adaptée aux mesures sur piste sous un véhicule en roulement est développée dans un premier temps. Cette méthode basée sur la méthode PIV (Vélocimétrie par Images de Particules), consiste en la réfraction de la nappe laser à l’interface hublot/écoulement afin de pouvoir éclairer les particules par le même accès optique que la collection d’images. Cette technique appelée refracted PIV (R-PIV) est caractérisée dans un premier temps sur un écoulement contrôlé en laboratoire. Cette technique est ensuite adaptée au cas de la piste pour les mesures in-situ. Ces mesures appliquées à la piste ont permis de mettre en évidence différents comportements de l’écoulement dans la flaque d’eau en amont du pneumatique mais également au sein des sillons pneumatiques. En amont du pneumatique les évolutions linéaires de la vitesse du fluide en fonction de la vitesse du véhicule est mise en évidence dans ce travail. Des effets non linéaires sont également observés et mis en lien avec la réduction de l’aire de contact pneu chaussée. Dans un second temps, l’étude de l’écoulement au sein des sculptures du pneumatique dans l’aire de contact nous permet de mettre en évidence deux grands types de sculptures. Le premier est composé de tous les sillons longitudinaux du pneumatique. Dans ces sillons, la vitesse de l’écoulement à travers ces sculptures dépend de la vitesse véhicule mais également de la présence du témoin d’usure du pneumatique. Un écoulement secondaire tourbillonnaire a également été mis en évidence grâce à nos mesures sur piste. Dans le second type des sillons composés de toutes les sculptures orientées transversalement, la vitesse du fluide, en leur sein, dépend de leur position dans l’aire de contact. Cette évolution semble être fonction de la déformation du pneumatique dans l’aire de contact. Pour finir, les interactions entre ces différents types de sculptures sont également discutées dans ces travaux permettant d’expliquer certains comportements spécifiques
In this work, the fluid flow in a water puddle while a rolling tire crosses the puddle is studied. A measurement method adapted to track measurements under a rolling tire is developed. This method, based on PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry), is based on the refraction of the laser light sheet at the flow/window interface. This allows us to illuminate particles and record their images from a single optical access. This technique called refracted PIV (R-PIV) is characterised with a laboratory controlled experiment. When characterised, this technique is applied to in-situ measurements on the track. Measurements performed allow to highlight specific behaviours in different parts of the flow, in front of the tire and inside tire grooves in the contact patch area between the tire and the road. In front of the tire, the linear evolution of the water velocity in the puddle as a function of the vehicle speed is demonstrated. At high vehicle speed, non-linear effects are highlighted and linked to the shape of the contact patch area which evolves at high vehicle speed. Under the tire contact patch area, two main types of grooves contribute to the draining of water. Firstly, the longitudinal grooves are the straight grooves aligned with the rolling direction. In these grooves, the velocity of the fluid flow depends on the vehicle speed and also on the presence or not of the wear indicator. A secondary vortex like flow structure is also demonstrated in this work. The second type of grooves are the transverse grooves which are the grooves oriented with a certain angle compared to the car rolling direction. In these grooves, this work proved that the velocity is dependent on the groove location in the contact patch area. This seems to be linked to the tire deformation with the load of the car in the contact patch area. Finally, this work discussed the link between the different tire groove types to explain different specific behaviours

Abstract:
Cette thèse s’inscrit dans le projet Fond Unique Interministériel (FUI) HydroSafeTire, dédié à l’étude du phénomène de l’hydroplanage. Au cours d’une précédente thèse sur le sujet au sein du laboratoire, l’étude de ce phénomène a été réalisée via un couplage fluide/structure SPH/FE en utilisant le solveur FE Abaqus développé par Simulia. Des effets tels que la hauteur d’eau, la vitesse du véhicule ou encore l’usure du pneumatique ont ainsi été investigués, montrant que les tendances observées durant les expérimentations étaient retrouvées numériquement. A l’issue de ces travaux, il a donc été décidé d’utiliser le solveur structure FE développé spécifiquement par Michelin (en collaboration avec le GIREF) pour ses applications, afin de tirer profit des avantages de ce solveur pour le problème spécifique de l’hydroplanage. Ainsi dans cette thèse, la première étape est la validation du couplage SPH/FE avec ce code structure sur des cas tests académiques. L’obtention d’un bon compromis précision des résultats / temps de restitution des simulations constitue un enjeu majeur, en particulier dans un contexte industriel. Ainsi, cette thèse s’articule autour de trois axes. Premièrement, un travail sur la consistance des schémas SPH utilisant une méthode de désorganisation particulaire est effectué, en parallèle d’un travail sur la méthode de désorganisation en elle même. Ensuite, un modèle de décollement de jets de surface libre est proposé, compatible avec la prise en compte des effets de succion. Enfin, différents schémas de couplage SPH/FE à pas de temps différés sont étudiés, avec une application à l’hydroplanage
This PhD thesis takes place in the Fond Unique Interministériel (FUI) HydroSafeTire project, dedicated to the study of the hydroplaning phenomenon. During a previous PhD thesis regarding this topic in the lab., the hydroplaning phenomenon has been investigated via a fluid/structure SPH/FE coupling, using the FE solver Abaqus developed by Simulia. Physical effects such as the water height, the velocity of the vehicle and the tire wear have been studied, showing that the tendencies experimentally observed were retrieved in the simulations. Therefore, it has been decided to use the FE structure solver specifically developed by Michelin for their tire applications, in order to take benefits of this solver for the specific hydroplaning problem. Then, in the present PhD thesis, the first step is the validation of the SPH/FE coupling, using this FE code, on academic test cases. The compromise between the accuracy of the results and the restitution time of the simulations is of paramount importance, particularly in an industrial context. Thus, three main topics are investigated in this work. Firstly, the consistency of SPH schemes using a Particle Shifting Technique (PST) is studied, in addition to a work on the PST itself. Then, a model of flow separation is proposed, compatible with suction effects. Finally, different coupling schemes SPH/FE using differed time-steps are studied, with an hydroplaning application

Abstract:
La simulation de cas réalistes d'écoulements ou de transferts thermiques implique souvent l'utilisation d'obstacles ou d'interfaces de forme complexe. De part leur manque de flexibilité, les maillages structurés ne sont pas initialement adaptés au traitement d'interfaces irrégulières, ces dernières coïncidant rarement avec les lignes du maillage. Afin de permettre à l'approche structurée de traiter des interfaces complexes avec précision, des méthodes dites de domaines fictifs sont nécessaires. La première contribution de cette thèse est une nouvelle méthode de travail sur maillage curviligne structuré qui permet de réutiliser de nombreuses méthodes fonctionnant initialement sur des maillages cartésiens sur maillages curvilignes. Nous avons ensuite mis au point deux nouvelles méthodes de domaines fictifs : la méthode de pénalisation de sous-maille (PSM) pour la gestion des frontières immergées pour les équations elliptiques et de Navier-Stokes et la méthode d'interface immergée algébrique (IIA) pour les problèmes d'interfaces immergées pour les équations elliptiques. L'un des intérêts de ces deux méthodes à l'ordre deux en espace est leur simplicité. Ces différents développements ont finalement été appliqués à des cas de couplage fluide-structure académiques et réalistes (sédimentation d'un cylindre, hydroplanage d'un pneu, écoulements dans une tête de forage et convection naturelle dans la grotte de Lascaux).

This thesis investigates the operating strategy of Taipower pumped storage plants under reasonable spinning reserve constraint. When non-pumped-storage hydroplants cannot operate under full-capacity condition due to natural disaster or limited water resource, electricity dispatchers will use Ming-Hu and Ming-Tan pumped-storage generating units as the main frequency regulating reserve (FRR) and instantaneous reserve. As a result, the strategy on how to operate pumped-storage hydroplants will have a direct effect on the operating cost and system safety. At present, Taipower System electricity dispatchers use the load-frequency sensitivity factor (LFSF) as an index. The one-minute recovery frequency following the outage of largest on-line generator is used as a safety system constraint to check whether the FRR is sufficient or not. Normally when non-pumped-storage hydroplants do not generate enough power, electricity dispatchers often use multiple automatic generation control units as FRR during non-off-peak periods to generate power with enough spinning reserve. This research proposes an alternative way to reduce the usage of pumped-storage units during non-off-peak periods. It is more efficient to schedule multiple pumped-storage hydroplants working spontaneously, some pump water and some others generate power. This proposed method will take into account not only system safety but also ways to reduce operation costs, to improve power quality and to decrease switchings for automatic generation control units.

Abstract:
The European unfired pressure vessel code EN13445-3 [1] has been used to design a preliminary prototype of a towfish. The towfish is essentially an underwater vessel equipped with various sensors, cameras, hydroplanes and control systems that are used to capture data on the levels of pollutants in the sea and at the same time monitor plankton and jellyfish levels. The towfish is towed behind a surface ship and is designed to dive to a depth of 50m below sea level. The depth of dive can be controlled by means of hydroplanes. Data, signals and electrical power are transferred from the towfish to the surface ship and vice versa via the towing line. From a structural point of view the towfish is a vessel acted upon by external pressure and local loads. Design by rule (DBR) was first used to calculate some of the various dimensions and thicknesses of the towfish components. The various components were designed mainly to prevent failure due to buckling. Design by analysis (DBA) based on Annex B of the pressure vessel code EN13445-3 [1] was then used to carry out further buckling checks that were not possible to do using design by rule. At the end of the paper the results from the two design approaches are compared and any major differences are highlighted.

Full text
Abstract:
The Engineering Business Ltd. (EBL) have developed a patented system for generating electricity from oscillating hydroplanes driven by flowing water. The concept started development with the award of a Smart Award from the UK governments Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) in 1998, which led to the development of the Active Water Column Generator (AWCG). The AWCG was a simple, sea / air interface device which demonstrated, through the actuation of hydroplanes in moving water, that power could be generated. However, this concept suffered from inherent size and vulnerability limitations. It was decided to alter the basic form such that it is now seabed mounted, and therefore protected from the worst storm and wave effects. This concept, known as Stingray, is being developed under the New and Renewable Energy Research and Development program run by the DTI. Following the successful conclusion of the first phase of work, a fast-track 15 week feasibility study undertaken in the last quarter of 2001, phase two of the program is well under way. This involves a full design study, for 2002/3, to design, install, operate, decommission and evaluate a 150kW demonstrator — the first of its kind internationally. This paper describes the progression from concept to demonstrator design, focussing on the modelling work undertaken in the initial investigation and plans for its subsequent validation. It outlines mathematical and physical modelling techniques used and then gives a brief summary of the findings to date.

Abstract:
Transfer Matrix Method for Multibody Systems (MSTMM) is easy to formulate, systematic to apply, simple to code and the matrices are low order which contributes to higher computational efficiency than ordinary dynamics methods. The main idea about how to simulate the vibration characteristic and hydroelastic behavior of a submarine sail mounted hydroplanes system based on MSTMM and coupled with Theodorsen flow model is presented in this paper. The simulation results are compared with those theoretical and experimental reported in the existing literature and commercial software simulation, and good results are obtained. The main idea of this paper provides a reference for dynamics of system with fluid-structure interaction (FSI) simulation and analysis of similar problems in the field of engineering.
