The current research work investigates numerically the turbulent flow field characteristics around three dimensional circular cylinder of finite height at Reynolds number of 43000 using Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) turbulence model. Comparison of the numerical results with the experiment data has been taken place. The results reveals that the DES turbulence model is superior for predicting the flow past the circular cylinder of finite height at this Re. The numerical results of this study show the great potential of the presented DES for investigating the complicated flow structure in this case. DES is very accurate for predicting the flow characteristics in many sophisticated cases and can reduce the computational efforts during the simulation process in comparison with Large Eddy Simulation (LES) turbulence mathematical model.

This paper develops an inventory model for deteriorating items consisting the ordering cost, unit cost, opportunity cost, deterioration cost and shortage co s t. In this inventory model instead of linear demand function nonlinear exponential function of time for deteriorating items with deterioration rate has been considered. The effects of inflation and cash flow are also taken into account under a trade-credit policy of discount and without discount with time. In order to validate the model, numerical examples have been solved by bisection method deploying Matlab. Further, in order to estimate the cash flow the sensitivity of different parameters is considered.

An analysis has been carried out to study the effect of heat source and chemical reaction on MHD flow past a vertical plate subject to a constant motion with variable temperature and concentration. The governing equations are solved by the Laplace transformation technique. The effects of various flow parameters on the flow dynamics are discussed. Findings of the present study reveal that the velocity of the fluid reduces due to the dominating effect of kinematic viscosity over molecular diffusivity in case of heavier species. Presence of heat source reduces the velocity of the flow. Presence of chemical reaction parameter decreases the concentration distribution.

The present study investigates an analytical solution of free convective unsteady fluid flow in presence of thermal diffusion and chemical reaction effects past a vertical porous plate with heat source dependent in slip flow regime. The plate is assumed to move with a constant velocity in the direction of fluid flow, while free stream velocity is assumed to follow exponentially increasing small perturbation law. The velocity, temperature and concentration profiles are presented graphically for different values of the parameters entering into the problem. Finally the effects of pertinent parameters on the skin friction coefficient, Nusselt number and Sherwood numbers distributions are derived and have shown through graphs and tables by using perturbation technique.

The effect of thermophoresis on heat and mass transfer flow of a micropolar fluid in the presence of Soret and Dufour effects past a vertical porous plate have been investigated . The transformed conservation equations are solved numerically using an optimized, extensively validated, variational finite element analysis. The influence of important non-dimensional parameter, Suction parameter ( ), Soret parameter (Sr), Dufour parameter (Du) and thermophoretic parameter (τ) on velocity, angular velocity (micro-rotation), temperature and concentration fields as well as shear stress, Nusselt number and Sherwood number are examined in detail and the results are shown in graphically and in tabular form to know the physical importance of the problem. It is found that the imposition of wall fluid suction (V 0 >0) in this present problem of flow has the effect of depreciating the velocity, micro-rotation, temperature and concentration boundary layer thicknesses at every finite value of η.

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 equations are reduced into ordinary differential equation (ODE) by using a classical similarity transformation along with appropriate boundary conditions. Both nonlinearity and infinite interval demand novel mathematical tools for their analysis. We use fast converging Dirichlet series and Method of stretching of variables for the solution of these nonlinear differential equations. These methods have the advantages over pure numerical methods for obtaining the derived quantities accurately for various values of the parameters involved at a stretch and also they are valid in much larger parameter domain as compared with HAM, HPM, ADM and the classical numerical schemes.

This paper presents the methodologies developed in order to quality control and analyze the data acquired in hydrodynamic seakeeping experiments of physical models in waves. In such experiments, the data file consists of wave elevations and directions, loads, motions, velocities and accelerations of one or multiple bodies. Additionally, mooring, slamming, sea-fastening, fender and other vessel specific load data may be acquired, which requires special analysis technique. Data products of such experiments are primarily consist of the basic statistics of each of the acquired data channels selected segments. Various wave statistics are produced to estimate the significant and other percentile of peaks/troughs/heights of each relevant data signal. This is done for the wave segment using zero crossing analysis. The response amplitude operator analysis is done through spectral analysis. Weibull analysis is done to estimate the maximum and minimum of an occurrence in a projected time. Analysis routines are written to incorporate each of these analysis techniques to produce results both in tabular and graphical formats. Analysis technique for decay experiments in multiple directions of motion, which are integral parts of any sea-keeping experiments, is also presented. Examples of all such analysis are provided where appropriate.

In order to compare the frictional resistance of three kinds of ship’s hull coatings (Foul Release, SPC copper, SPC TBT) in the unfouled conditions, the numerical studies have been made. Simulations have been carried out for different Reynolds numbers in the range of 2.85 × – 5.5 × based on the plate length and flow velocity. Antifouling coatings have a larger mean roughness than Foul Release. The results have indicated that frictional resistance coefficient of Foul Release test plate is lower than SPC copper and SPC TBT test plates. The total resistance obtained by computational fluid dynamics has been compared with the experimental data and good agreement in results has been found which those have shown the ability of CFD modeling in calculating of fluid flow resistance by considering the coating characteristics.

The everyday growing populations all over the world and the necessity of increase in consumption of fossil energies have made the human to discover new energy resources, which are clean, cheap and renewable. Wind energy is one of the renewable energy resources. Considerable wind speed has made settling of wind turbines at sea beneficial and appealing. For this purpose, choosing the appropriate plates to set up wind turbines on the surface of sea is necessary. Regarding the installation condition, by choosing suitable geometry for floating breakwaters, offshore wind turbine can be mounted on them. Suitable geometry of breakwater for multifunctional usage could be selected with analyzing and comparing pressure, force and moment produced by incoming waves. In this article, we implement boundary element method to solve governing differential equations by assuming potential flow. On the other hand, for promoting free surface in each time step, we employed Euler-Lagrangian method. Finally, to find the appropriate geometry for installing the wind turbine on the breakwater, moment and wave profile next to the right and left side of breakwater body are calculated. Among simulated geometries, breakwater with trapezoid geometry which its larger base is placed in the water has more sustainability and it is the most suitable geometry for wind turbine installation.

This article numerically studies for multi-physical transport of an optically-dense, free convective incompressible non-Newtonian second grade fluid past an isothermal, impermeable horizontal circular cylinder. The governing boundary layer equations for momentum and energy transport, which are parabolic in nature, have been reduced to non-similarity non-linear conservation equations using appropriate transformations and then solved numerically by employing with most validated, efficient implicit finite difference method with Keller box scheme. The numerical code is validated with previously existing results and found to be very good agreement. The results are reported graphically and in tabular form for various physical parameters; Deborah number, Prandtl number and thermal radiation on flow velocity and temperature profiles. Furthermore, the effects of these parameters on non dimensional wall shear stress (skin friction) and surface heat transfer rate (Nusselt number) are also investigated. Increasing the Deborah number reduces velocity profile, skin friction and Nusselt number where as it enhances the temperature profile. Increasing Prandtl number decelerates the flow velocity, temperature and skin friction but Nusselt number enhances considerably. Increase in radiation parameter retards the flow velocity, temperature profiles and skin friction. But Nusselt number enhances markedly with increase in radiation parameter. Applications of the model arise in polymer processing in chemical engineering, metallurgical material processing.
