Vortex induced vibration of a circular cylinder

Chu, Chih-Chun 02 September 2011 (has links)
Vortex induced vibration of a circular cylinder in an inclined flow is a major subject in this thesis, the interaction and effect between a moving cylinder and fluid is always focused and investigated. We used a finite differences method to get the forces on cylinder, and then combined a Runge-Kutta four order approximate method to get a new position of a cylinder at next time step, repeated above procedure and we will get the solutions of a time series of cylinder response for VIV simulations. Most of papers focus on the peak amplitude and its scale due to the shedding frequency of system is near or at the fs, where fs is the shedding frequency of a uniform flow past a stationary cylinder. Except the ¡§first resonance¡¨, we found the ¡§second resonance¡¨ in the VIV simulations. The ¡§second resonance¡¨ occurs due to the natural shedding frequency of system is near or at the twice of the reduced frequency of the oscillator ¡§fs=2F1¡¨. The natural shedding frequency of a body is a key parameter, it always be discussed its effect and importance, and its value is also presented the frequency of lift force (or displacement on Y direction) of a body. On the contrary, the frequency of in-line force (or displacement on X direction) and its effect is seldom be investigated and discussed. In this study, we will discuss the effect of frequency of in-line force and the scale of ¡§first resonance¡¨ and ¡§second resonance¡¨ for VIV simulations. In order to verify the accuracy of our numerical model, this study simulated four different types for the cases of uniform flow past a circular cylinder with stationary, streamwise, transversal and rotational oscillating, respectively. The simulation results are compared with the study results of other paper by experimental and numerical methods, and the comparison show good agreement and high accuracy in the range of the in-line and lift forces on the cylinder, the main wake size behind the cylinder, the vortex shedding mode and the streamline pattern of the flow field. Furthermore, this study investigates a uniform flow past an inclined oscillating cylinder which is forcing oscillation in a range of 00 ~ 900 for the inclined angle (with respect to the X-direction of the Cartesian coordinates system). The effects of giving the different forced frequencies of a cylinder were investigated and discussed. And the application and restriction of Morison¡¦s equation will also be studied and investigated in different input conditions.

Investigation of the Lock-in behavior of an eccentrically rotating cylinder in regard to turbomachinery application.

Samarbakhsh, Sina January 2014 (has links)
Interaction of fluctuating vortex shedding with blade vibration can lead to a new class of aeromechanical instability referred as Non-synchronous vibrations. Investigating a well-known case that shows similar NSV features such as a circular cylinder can develop the understanding of physics behind NSV. A common approach to further investigating the vortex induced vibration is to control the motion of the cylinder and allowing the response of the wake to the motion to be studied in isolation. It has been found very important to carefully match the experimental conditions between free and controlled vibration. Many of research in the field of vortex induced vibration apply a rigid cylinder mounted horizontally and moving transversely to the flow stream as a paradigm for understanding the physics behind this phenomenon. Regarding the difficulties of implementation of vertically moving cylinder in experimental study, vortex dynamic and lock-in behavior of eccentrically rotating cylinder is studied in this M.Sc. Thesis. The main focus of this research is to understand to what extend a general feature of free vortex-induced vibration can be observed in the case of eccentrically rotating cylinder. If the present case captures the essential characteristics of freely oscillating cylinder the results of the forced motion via eccentrically rotating cylinder can be applied to predict the motion of an elastically mounted body. To do so a CFD model is established to predict the response, vorticity structure in near wake, timing of vortex shedding and the range of lock-in region over specific parameter space of the introduced alternative case. A commercial CFD code, Ansys/CFX, was implemented to perform this numerical study. Existences of synchronization region, striking similarity in lift force coefficient and wake mode have been observed in the current study.

Estudo numérico do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro oscilando. / Numerical investigation of the flow around an oscillating cylinder.

Raupp, Eduardo Mendonça 23 April 2007 (has links)
O objetivo deste projeto de mestrado é estudar o escoamento bidimensional ao redor de um cilindro isolado oscilando forçadamente e apoiado em base elástica através de simulações computacionais utilizando o Método de Elementos Espectrais. Este tópico suscita grande interesse no meio tecnológico, pois esta configuração aparece com bastante freqüência em estruturas marítimas, como os \"risers\" de produção e umbilicais de plataformas de exploração de petróleo, e também no meio acadêmico, uma vez que se trata do estudo de fenômenos complexos originados do escoamento ao redor de uma geometria simples: cilindro circular. A pesquisa tem seu principal enfoque na avaliação da utilização do método espectral de elementos finitos para solução do escoamento bidimensional no limite do regime de esteira laminar, Re < ou = 200 , ao redor de um cilindro oscilando forçadamente e apoiado em base elástica. As simulações do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro oscilando forçadamente são realizadas com duas amplitudes de oscilação do cilindro: 0.15D e 0.40D . Para cada amplitude são utilizadas dez freqüências de oscilação: 0.8 s f , 0.85 s f , 0.9 s f , 0.95 s f , 0.975 s f , 0.9875 s f , 1.025 s f , 1.05 s f , 1.075 s f e 1.1 s f ; onde D é o diâmetro do cilindro e s f é a freqüência de desprendimento de vórtices para cilindro fixo. O objetivo destas simulações é a tentativa de observação do fenômeno da mudança brusca do ângulo de fase entre a força transversal à direção da corrente e o deslocamento do cilindro, \"phase-jump\", obtendo, deste modo, uma base para comparação com trabalhos já existentes sobre o mesmo tema, avaliando o método numérico utilizado para o caso do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro oscilando. As simulações do escoamento ao redor de um cilindro apoiado em base elástica (livre para oscilar) foram feitas com apenas um grau de liberdade: a direção transversal ao escoamento incidente (eixo y no caso estudado). O resultado mais importante deste tipo de configuração, do ponto de vista prático (projetos de \"risers\", e outras estruturas cilíndricas), é a curva max A / D versus r V , isto, devido à dependência da vida útil destas estruturas à máxima amplitude de oscilação. Para reproduzir a curva max A / D versus r V , foram escolhidos os seguintes valores de velocidade reduzida: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, e 10.0. / The goal of this work is to study through numerical simulations using the Spectral Elements Method the two-dimensional the flow past a single circular cylinder that is either in simple harmonic cross-flow oscillation or elastically mounted. This is a very important topic for the technological environment because this configuration is identical to offshore structures, like risers of oil production platform and is also important to scientific environment due to the study of complex phenomena originated from the flow past a very simple geometry: a circular cylinder. The focus of this research is to evaluate the use of Spectral Element Method for solution of two-dimensional flow past a circular cylinder that is either in simple harmonic cross-flow oscillation or elastically mounted, at the laminar wake limit, Re < or = 200 . Two oscillation amplitudes were employed for the forced oscillations simulations: 0.15D e 0.40D . And, for each amplitude, were selected ten frequencies: 0.8 s f , 0.85 s f , 0.9 s f , 0.95 s f , 0.975 s f , 0.9875 s f , 1.025 s f , 1.05 s f , 1.075 s f e 1.1 s f ; where D is the cylinder diameter and s f is the vortex shedding frequency. The phase jump phenomenon, e.g., the fast change of phase angle, is observed and compared with existents works evaluating the Spectral Elements Method for forced oscillations cases. In the elastically mounted simulations the most important result, for the practical point of view (risers design), is the max A / D x r V curve, e.g., maximum amplitude versus velocity ratio, due to the relation of risers lifetime with maximum oscillation amplitude. To build the max A / D x r V curve were selected the follow values of velocity ratio: 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, e 10.0.

Design of Affordable Portable Mechanical Ventilator

Komatipalli, Rohith Kumar January 2024 (has links)
This report outlines developing a mechanism for a relatively low in price, portable, and mechanical ventilator prototype designed to bridge the gap in ventilator access brought about the COVID-19 pandemic. The key goal is to create a portable and easy to use device which will be capable of providing constant and effective respiratory support in areas having limited resources. The ventilator uses the Oscillating Cylinder Mechanism (OCM), which makes the ventilation smoothly and continuously. This eliminates the need for the user to put maximum effort and the patient benefits. Different ideas about designs were being put forward, concentrating on the portability, functionality, reliability, safety, and effectiveness. The OCM was selected because of its ventilation parameter adjustment ability to accommodate patient-specific needs, thereby functioning in a variety of clinical settings. Although upfront complexity and cost are developed, long-term perks such as lower user fatigue and maintenance expenses compensate for the financial investment. The end design will help in the emergency medical care especially in demand emergency situations, in ambulances, and in intensive care.
