The interaction of free convection with thermal radiation of a viscous incompressible unsteady MHD flow past a moving vertical cylinder with heat and mass transfer in a porous medium is analyzed. The fluid is a gray, absorbing-emitting but…
A floating system consisting of three pontoons equispaced, rigidly interconnected and taut moored to act as a single unit is analyzed. The theoretical formulation of the problem is based on the assumptions of irrotational fluid flow, an inviscid…
There are ever-increasing efforts on utilising non-conventional energy resources so as to reduce the global carbon footprint and reduce pollution caused by extensive use of energy from conventional sources. At the same time, the energy extraction…
The sloshing phenomenon of liquid in a partially filled tank mounted rigidly on a barge exposed to random beam waves has been investigated through a well controlled experimental program. Four relative liquid depths, (liquid depth, hs/ length of tank,…
In order to explore the physics implicated with the sloshing phenomenon subjected to independent regular sway, heave and roll excitations of the liquid tank system, theoretical studies are carried out. Four liquid fill levels with static liquid…
In shipbuilding, the process of forming flat metal plate into curved hull plates with compound shapes is very important and has greatly affected many economic and technical factors such as strength, quality, and aesthetics of the hull, construction…
In the present paper, the effect of magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) on mixed convection flow within a lid-driven triangular cavity has been numerically investigated. The bottom wall of the cavity is considered as heated. Besides, the left and the inclined…
The Circulation Water Channel (CWC) is an experimental facility available at Indian Maritime University, Visakhapatnam Campus. A study for comparing the flow pattern and velocity in the test section, for different configurations of the CWC, is…
In this paper, hydrodynamic characteristics of caisson type breakwater are investigated through physical model approach and a numerical model based on the Volume of Fluid (VOF) is validated. The investigations are carried out for varying wave…
A computational hydrodynamics method was formulated and implemented as a tool from screw propeller propulsion to renewable energy performance prediction, design and optimization of horizontal axis turbines. As an example for tidal energy generation,…
