New contra-rotating four-bladed DTMB propeller configurations operating in open water are numerically studied to determine their hydrodynamic performances. The unsteady turbulent flow around propellers is modelled by RANS equations with Kω SST model…
The governing equations of continuity, momentum and energy are numerically solved to study the laminar natural convection heat transfer of Newtonian fluid confined within two concentric cylinders. The inner cylinder is elliptical cross-section with…
The present numerical work describes the effect of the temperature dependent variable viscosity and viscous dissipation on natural convection heat transfer boundary layer flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid along…
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 we investigate numerically the influence of variable viscosity and thermal conductivity on MHD convective flow of heat and mass transfer problem over a moving non-isothermal vertical plate. The viscosity of the fluid and thermal…
The transom stern offered some advantages over the traditional rounded cruiser stern reducing the resistance of a ship. This can only be achieved if the transom stern is carefully designed with suitable transom immersion ratio. In this study, the…
During voyage of a ship from one port to another, different types of wastes generated due to operation of the ship and livelihood of the crews, which fall under the scope of international convention for the prevention of pollution from ships, MARPOL…
The utilization of the existing breakwater constructions into wave energy conversion has been often adopted to rendering a revenue of the capital cost of investment. The paper has contributed to viable concept of a new integration design through more…
The paper investigates the role of complete velocity slip on the axisymmetric peristaltic transport of Ellis fluid through a uniform flexible tube considering the long wavelength and tiny Reynolds number assumptions. The equations governing the…
The present study explores the thermal and Joule heating effect of Casson nanofluid flow with chemical reaction over an inclined porous stretching surface. The results of heat source/sink, viscous dissipation, and suction are regarded. The new…
