The present study is conducted to investigate heat and fluid flow in an open channel having a circular heater on the bottom surface under magnetic field. The semi-circle is heated isothermally and the other walls of the channel are kept adiabatic.…
In this paper, hydromagnetic flow and thermal behaviors of fluid on free and forced convection inside an octagonal vertical channel are investigated. The channel consists of a centered heat generating hollow solid circular cylinder. The vertical and…
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,…
A boundary layer analysis is presented for the warm, laminar nanoliquid fluid flow to a melting cylindrical surface moving parallel to a uniform stream. The resulting system of non-linear ordinary differential equations is solved numerically using…
The development of centered heat conducting obstacle effect on combined magnetoconvective flow in a lid driven chamber has been numerically studied. The enclosure considered has rectangular horizontal lower surfaces and vertical side surfaces. The…
Two-dimensional Finite Volume Method (FVM) based on Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations is applied to solve the turbulent viscous flow around sphere and pod. Unstructured grid with boundary layer treatment is constructed around sphere…
In the last year, the Department of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering of Genoa University (now Department of Naval Architecture, Marine Technology and Electrical Engineering) collaborated to the design of the propulsion automation of two…
This work is focused on the numerical solution of unsteady double-diffusive free convective flow along a vertical isothermal cylinder in the presence of a transverse magnetic field, first-order homogeneous chemical reaction, thermal radiation and…
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…
To initialize ship design process, it is very important to be able to develop an initial estimate of ship parameters to satisfy designer required specifications. For new emerging designs, this estimate has to be made based on a limited available set…
