Study of the Lift Force Induced by An Interceptor on A High-Speed Mono-Hull:The Affecting Factors and Estimation Formula

To find a better way to estimate the lift force induced by an interceptor on a high-speed mono-hull ship,a series of high-speed mono-hull ship models are designed and investigated under different conditions.Different lift forces are obtained by numerical calculations and validated by a model test in a towing tank.The factors that influence the force are the interceptor height,velocity,draft,and deadrise angle.The relationship between each factor and the induced lift force is investigated and obtained.We found that the induced lift mainly depends on the interceptor height and advancing velocity,and is proportional to the square of the interceptor height and velocity.The results also showed that the effects of the draft and deadrise angle are relatively less important,and the relationship between the induced lift and these two factors is generally linear.Based on the results,a formula including the combined effect of all factors used to estimate the lift force induced by the interceptor is developed based on systematic analysis.The proposed formula could be used to estimate the lift force induced by interceptors,especially under high-speed condition.

EFFECT OF INTERPHASE LIFT FORCE ON THE FLUID FLOW IN AN AIR-STIRRED CYLINDRICAL VESSEL

In the present paper, based on the two-phase model (Eulerian model), the two dimensional fluid flow liz air-stirred water systems is simulated, and the effect of interphase lift force on the fluid flow is specially discussed. In the Eulerian two-phase model, gas and liquid phase are considered to be two different continuous fluids interacting with each other through the finite inter-phase areas. The exchange between the phases is represented by source terms in conversation equations. Turbulence is assumed to be a property of the liquid phase, k - ε model is used to describe the behavior of the liquid phase. The dispersion of phases due to turbulence is represented by introducing a diffusion term in mass consecrvation equation. The contribution of bubble movement to the turbulent energy and its dissipation rate is taken into accounted by adding extra volumetric source terms to the equations of turbulent enemy and its dissipation rate. The comparison between the mathematical simulation and experiment data indicates that the interphase lift force has a big effect on the flow behavior, and considering both drug force and lift force as interphase forces is important to accurately simulate the gas-water two-phase fluid flow in air-stirred systems. The interphase lift force makes bubbles move away from the centerline, the gas concentration is decreased near the centerline, and increased near the wall. The lift force is smaller than drug force at the same place, especially far away from the centerline.

Influences of Lorentz force on the hydrofoil lift

In this paper, Lorentz forces are proved to be able to suppress separation in flows over hydrofoils. Furthermore, a differential equation of pressure distributions on the hydrofoil surface is derived, from which it is found that BVF （boundary vortex flux） σ is a suitable criterion for describing the lift coefficient variations during the electromagnetic control process. According to our numerical results, the periodic variations of lift for a hydrofoil at an attack angle of 17 ° are analyzed and its inherent mechanism is discussed in detail with the concept of BVE On the other hand, the effects of Lorentz force on the hydrofoil＇s lift are investigated both experimentally and numerically for different magnitudes and locations.

A Study of Lift Force and Instantaneous Velocity Field Around an Oscillating Circular Cylinder

Force measurements of oscillatory flow acting on a single circular cylinder have been carried out. The experiments were done by oscillating a circular cylinder in still water. Instantaneous forces and velocity fields around the cylinder were measured by Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The Keulegan-Carpenter number (KC) varied in the range from 5 to 20 and the viscous parameter beta = Re / KC was set at 500 (Re is Reynolds number). It was found that the strength and frequency of the lift force increased with KC number, the main frequency of the lift force being three times the frequency of the oscillatory flow at KC = 20. The movement and strength of the vortices around the cylinder are discussed for different KC numbers.

Effect of the particle temperature on lift force of nanoparticle in a shear rarefied flow

The nanoparticles suspended in a shear flow are subjected to a shear lift force,which is of great importance for the nanoparticle transport.In previous theoretical analysis on the shear lift,it is usually assumed that the particle temperature is equal to the temperature of the surrounding gas media.However,in some particular applications,the particle temperature can significantly differ from the gas temperature.In the present study,the effect of particle temperature on the shear lift of nanoparticles is investigated and the corresponding formulas of shear lift force are derived based on the gas kinetic theory.For extremely small nanoparticles(with radius R<2 nm)or large nanoparticles(R>20 nm),the influence of the particle temperature can be neglected.For the intermediate particle size,the relative error induced by the equal gas–particle temperature can be significant.Our findings can bring an insight into accurate evaluation of the nanoparticle transport properties.

Calculation Method for Effect of Silt Sediment on Lifting Force of Hydraulic Gate

In this paper, silt sediment is considered to be Bingham body, which is made up of coarse and fine particles in front of a hydraulic gate. The coarse and fine particles provide friction and shear stress in the course of opening the gate. They constitute together the adhesion force of the sediment. Based on this viewpoint, this paper puts forward a formula for the effect of silt sediment on the lifting force. The formula includes gate weight, down-suction force, sealing rubber friction, plus-weight, water-column pressure, plus-silted-sediment weight and rolling(or sliding)-bearing friction. Finally, the verification results show that the formula has certain reliability and the calculation accuracy can meet the need of practical engineering.

Lift Force at Equatorial Sea Level Due to Compressed Air Dynamics of the Trade Wind’s Boundary Layer

Starting with a recent unconventional explanation of the lift force on a wing, featuring compressibility of the air, an application of the same concept is made to the lift force on the equatorial sea surface due to the Trade Winds, by greatly increasing the spatial scales. If the equatorial sea level does rise up, the northward slope to the sea level should facilitate the poleward flux of summer heat in both the North Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans, as two examples, in accordance with the heat budget requirements of these oceans. Compressed air dynamics consists of Bernoulli’s law applied to the streamlines of the Trade Winds, the force balance between the upward centrifugal force of the curved streamlines at the earth’s surface and a downward pressure force, and the perfect gas law for air.

Experimental Investigation of Lift Forces on Horizontal Cylinder near Bottom in Oscillating Flow

The lift forces on horizontal cylinder near bottom is experimentally investigated at Reynolds numbers (Re) in the range of 2 500~10 000 and Keulegan^Carpenter numbers (Kc) in the interval of 5~20, and gap ratio (e/D) is from 0.2 to 1.0. Lift force coefficient (CL) and the deviation value of lift force (a0) are analyzed by using the Fourier analysis method. It is found that both CL & a0 are the functions of the Kc number.

The Lift Forces Acting on a Submarine Composite Pipeline in a Wave-Current Coexisting Field

A composite pipeline is defined as a main big pipe composed of one or several small pipes. The flow behaviour around a submarine composite pipeline is more complicated than that around a single submarine pipeline. A series model test of composite pipelines in a wave-current coexisting field was conducted by the authors. Both in-line and lift forces were measured, and the resultant forces were also analyzed. The results of lift forces and resultant forces are reported in this paper. It is found that the lift force coefficients for composite pipelines are well related to the KC number. The lift force coefficients for an irregular wave-current coexisting field are smaller than those for a regular wave-current coexisting field. The frequency of lift force is usually twice the wave frequency or higher. The authors test indicates that the resultant forces are about 10 to 20 percent larger than in-line forces (horizontal forces). The effect of water depth is analyzed. Finally, the relationship between lift force coefficient CL and KC number, the statistical characteristics of lift and resultant forces, are given in this paper, which may be useful for engineering practice.

A novel method of evaluating the lift force on the bluff body based on Noca's flux equation

The influence of experimental error on lift force evaluated by Noca’s flux equation is studied based on adding errors into the direct numerical simulation data for flow past cylinder at Re = 100. As Noca suggested using the low-pass filter to get rid of the high-frequency noise in the evaluated lift force, we verify that his method is inapplicable for dealing with the dataset of 1% experimental error, although the precision is acceptable in practice. To overcome this defect, a novel method is proposed in this paper. The average of the lift forces calculated by using multiple control volume is taken as the evaluation before applying the low-pass filter. The method is applied to an experimental data for flow past a cylinder at approximately Re = 900 to verify its validation. The results show that it improves much better on evaluating the lift forces.

Theoretical Calculation of Lift Force for Ideal Electric Asymmetric Capacitor Loaded by High Voltage

Asymmetric capacitor like the so-called lifter can fly up from the ground. Some common characteristics exist in the asymmetric capacitor: high-voltage, capacitor, lift force. What are the accurate quantitative relations among them and how can we figure the lift force out? It’s a thorny problem so far. In this article, we attempt to establish a model that can match the actual experimental data and theory derivation result. After checking, the calculation result is verified to be correct.

Theoretical Calculation of Lift Force for General Electric Asymmetric Capacitor Loaded by High Voltage

Lift force of an asymmetric capacitor in arbitrary shape still cannot be precisely calculated. For an irregular surface of a general asymmetric capacitor of which electric charge is nonuniformly distributed, we dedicate effort to filling the gap of lift force calculation problem. Through theoretical derivation, a general formula result is achieved. By applying theoretical formula combining with experimental method based on similarity principle of dimensional analysis, we can almost figure out all types of lift force of asymmetric capacitor. It is really an exciting method which can universally solve the hard thrust force calculation problem completely.

Force Requirement for Stump Lifting

In cutting areas, soil preparation is occasionally necessary before reforestation. The aim of this action is a spatial planning that enables to perform further operations without problems. The removal, collection and transportation of stumps from the soil are part of this action. Issues related to climate change and the shortcoming of fossil energy sources call attention to increase the rate of renewable energy sources. Using the stumps removed from the soil as fuel is a significant resource within the biomass potential. For lifting a stump together with its roots, a grab mounted on a shovel is generally used. The utilisation of the lifted stumps for energy purposes increased worldwide, especially in the Scandinavian countries. In order to rationalise this operation, analyses of stump lifting time have been carried out. Results of some Hungarian experiments are presented below. The authors tested a machine mounting one grab for stump lifting on three tree types （Scots pine, robinia and poplar） and found functions correlating stump extraction force and stump diameter, which can be used in order to choose the right machine and determine the cost of the operation.

Numerical Study on Hydrodynamic Forces for Micro Particle Detachment by Droplet Impact

This paper presents the results of a numerical investigation of micro-sized particle removal by droplet impact. Computational fluid dynamics simulation is used to calculate the flow distribution of droplet impact on a flat surface. The hydrodynamic forces exerted on the particle are then computed. Key factors controlling particle removal are discussed. Both hydrophilic and hydrophobic surfaces are considered. The flow distributions,especially the front edge expanding upon impact at microscale,strongly depend on surface wettability. The associated hydrodynamic forces on the particles vary accordingly. In addition, the impact on a dry surface can produce higher removal efficiency than that on a wet surface. Under the same impact conditions, the drag force exerted on a particle residing on a dry surface can be three orders of magnitudes larger than on a wet surface. Improving droplet impact velocity is more effective than improving droplet size.

Viscous Effects on Wave Forces on A Submerged Horizontal Circular Cylinder

Numerical simulations are carried out for wave action on a submerged horizontal circular cylinder by means of a viscous fluid model, and it is focused on the examination of the discrepancies between the viscous fluid results and the potential flow solutions. It is found that the lift force resulted from rotational flow on the circular cylinder is always in anti-phase with the inertia force and induces the discrepancies between the results. The influence factors on the magnitude of the lift force, especially the correlation between the stagnation-point position and the wave amplitude, and the effect of the vortex shedding are investigated by further examination on the flow fields around the cylinder. The viscous numerical calculations at different wave frequencies showed that the wave frequency has also significant influence on the wave forces. Under higher frequency and larger amplitude wave action, vortex shedding from the circular cylinder will appear and influence the wave forces on the cylinder substantially.

Assessment of force models on finite-sized particles at finite Reynolds numbers

Finite-sized inertial spherical particles are fully-resolved with the immersed boundary projection method(IBPM)in the turbulent open-channel flow by direct numerical simulation(DNS).The accuracy of the particle surface force models is investigated in comparison with the total force obtained via the fully-resolved method.The results show that the steady-state resistance only performs well in the streamwise direction,while the fluid acceleration force,the added-mass force,and the shear-induced Saffman lift can effectively compensate for the large-amplitude and high-frequency characteristics of the particle surface forces,especially for the wall-normal and spanwise components.The modified steady-state resistance with the correction effects of the acceleration and the fluid shear can better represent the overall forces imposed on the particles,and it is a preferable choice of the surface force model in the Lagrangian point-particle method.
