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 study, a Numerical model is carried out to study the effect of welding parameters on the temperature variations in Submerged Arc Welding process (SAW) with moving heat source model (Gaussian distribution) by using finite difference method…
The effect of magnetic field dependent (MFD) viscosity on the onset of Soret driven convection in a ferromagnetic fluid layer heated from below and salted from above saturating rotating porous medium in the presence of vertical magnetic field is…
Hull form optimization from a hydrodynamic performance point of view is an important aspect of ship design. This paper presents a computational method to estimate the ship resistance (viscous & wave) in calm-water. In the optimization process the…
The problem of steady two-dimensional boundary layer flow of momentum, heat and mass transfer over a stretching permeable wedge-shaped surface in a nanofluid in presence of magnetic field has been studied. In this respect, the governing partial…
Minimum power requirement is one of the important design criteria for successful operation of underwater vehicles. CFD based prediction and estimation of power requirement is increasingly carried out in practice. However, reliable prediction depends…
This paper addresses the Computational Fluid Dynamics Approach (CFD) to simulate the flow over underwater axisymmetric bodies at higher angle of attacks. Three Dimensional (3D) flow simulation is carried out over MAYA Autonomous Underwater Vehicle…
The paper presents the semi-numerical solution for the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) viscous flow due to a shrinking sheet caused by boundary layer of an incompressible viscous flow. The governing three partial differential equations of momentum…
The multiple singularity behaviour of flow through a porous pipe with decelerating wall is numerically studied in the present paper. The behaviour of the Riccati equation is introduced as a model problem. Then the steady axisymmetric flow of a…
Heat transfer phenomena of flat plate solar collector filled with different nanofluids has been investigated numerically. Galerkins Finite Element Method is used to solve the problem. Heat transfer rate, average bulk temperature, average sub-domain…
