The objective of this work is to develop a non-traditional strategy for providing control of ship roll motion in a seaway using active fins. This is based on a multidisciplinary approach. It consists of the assessment of the hydrodynamic coefficients…
The hydrodynamic behaviour of a fast fine vessel is of great importance than that of a fuller vessel as the fast fine vessels are engaged for important operations. Moreover with the advent of modern computers, in ship hydrodynamics, 3-D source…
This paper presents the numerical and experimental investigation of a straight core annular diffuser normally used in marine gas turbine combustor. The flow in the annular diffuser has been simulated by solving the equations for conservation of mass…
Laminar free convection flow from an isothermal sphere immersed in a fluid with thermal conductivity proportional to linear function of temperature has been studied. The governing boundary layer equations are transformed into a non-dimensional form…
Tunnels are provided in ship hulls to accommodate propellers under reduced draught conditions, thereby avoiding reduction of propeller diameter and consequent loss of efficiency. In this work the hydrodynamic effect of propeller tunnels in high speed…
An unsteady 3D surface panel method has been developed to predict hydrodynamic load fluctuations on an ice class propeller induced by continuous variation of proximity to an ice block. The low order, time domain, combined doublet and source panel…
Present work is concerned with the flow field analysis inside a marine annular gas turbine combustor under non-reacting as well as reacting flow conditions. Three-dimensional gas turbine combustor of 20-degree sector geometry has been created and…
 In this work simulation of a turbulent H2/N2 jet diffusion flame with flamelet modelling has been presented. The favre-averaged mixture fraction has been employed to model the combustion. Favre-averaged scalar quantities have been calculated from…
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…
A two-dimensional steady MHD free convection and mass transfer flow past a semi-infinite vertical porous plate in a porous medium has been studied numerically including the Dufour and Soret effects. The resulting momentum, energy and concentration…
