전산유체역학 해석을 통한 프로펠러의 상하동요 운동 중 유체력 특성 연구

Abstract

The present study aims to identify the effects of the oblique inflow and vertical acceleration on a marine propeller's hydrodynamic force and moment. Computational Fluid Dynamics analysis is performed for a rotating propeller in open water conditions with heave motion after performing validation against experiment in straightforward conditions. The oblique inflow results in a linear increase of the off-axial component of the hydrodynamic force and moment rather than the axial one. Pitch and yaw moments due to the hull motion are dominated by the heave force and the moment arm of the propeller location. Additionally, the vertical acceleration leads to a linear augmentation of off-axial hydrodynamic force and moment, implying the added mass and moment of inertia. Notably, it is found that the off-axial hydrodynamic force and moment are dominated by the oblique inflow velocity rather than the acceleration.
