  • On the Instabilities of Tropical Cyclones Generated by Cloud Resolving Models
    SERIES A DYANAMIC METEOROLOGY Tellus AND OCEANOGRAPHY PUBLISHED BY THE INTERNATIONAL METEOROLOGICAL INSTITUTE IN STOCKHOLM On the instabilities of tropical cyclones generated by cloud resolving models By DAVID A. SCHECTERÃ, NorthWest Research Associates, Boulder, CO, USA (Manuscript received 30 May 2018; in final form 29 August 2018) ABSTRACT An approximate method is developed for finding and analysing the main instability modes of a tropical cyclone whose basic state is obtained from a cloud resolving numerical simulation. The method is based on a linearised model of the perturbation dynamics that distinctly incorporates the overturning secondary circulation of the vortex, spatially inhomogeneous eddy diffusivities, and diabatic forcing associated with disturbances of moist convection. Although a general formula is provided for the latter, only parameterisations of diabatic forcing proportional to the local vertical velocity perturbation and modulated by local cloudiness of the basic state are implemented herein. The instability analysis is primarily illustrated for a mature tropical cyclone representative of a category 4 hurricane. For eddy diffusivities consistent with the fairly conventional configuration of the simulation that generates the basic state, perturbation growth is dominated by a low azimuthal wavenumber instability having greatest asymmetric kinetic energy density in the lower tropospheric region of the inner core of the vortex. The characteristics of the instability mode are inadequately explained by nondivergent 2D dynamics. Moreover, the growth rate and modal structure are sensitive to reasonable variations of the diabatic forcing. A second instability analysis is conducted for a mature tropical cyclone generated under conditions of much weaker horizontal diffusion. In this case, the linear model predicts a relatively fast high-wavenumber instability that is insensitive to the parameterisation of diabatic forcing.

NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS OF A SURFACE PIERCING A- CLASS CATAMARAN HYDROFOIL AND COMPARISON AGAINST MODEL TESTS Thilo Keller TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany Juryk Henrichs DNV GL SE, Potsdam, Germany Dr. Karsten Hochkirch Downloaded from http://onepetro.org/jst/article-pdf/2/01/1/2205567/sname-jst-2017-04.pdf by guest on 27 September 2021 DNV GL SE, Potsdam, Germany Dr. Andrés Cura Hochbaum TU Berlin, Berlin, Germany Manuscript received March 1, 2017; accepted April 4, 2017. Abstract: Hydrofoil supported sailing vessels gained more and more importance within the last years. Due to new processes of manufacturing, it is possible to build slender section foils with low drag coefficients and heave stable hydrofoil geometries are becoming possible to construct. These surface piercing foils often tend to ventilate and cause cavitation at high speeds. The aim of this work is to define a setup to calculate the hydrodynamic forces on such foils with RANS CFD and to investigate whether the onset of ventilation and cavitation can be predicted with sufficient accuracy. Therefore, a surface piercing hydrofoil of an A-Class catamaran is simulated by using the RANS software FineMarine with its volume of fluid method. The C-shaped hydrofoil is analyzed for one speed at Froude Number 7.9 and various angles of attack (AoA) by varying rake and leeway angle in ranges actually used while sailing. In addition, model tests were carried out in the K27 cavitation tunnel of TU-Berlin, for the given hydrofoil and in the same conditions as simulated with CFD to provide data for validation.

Viola, Institute for Energy Systems, School of Engineering, University of Edinburgh, UK, [email protected] A. Arredondo-Galeana, Institute for Energy Systems, School of Engineering, University of Edinburgh, UK, [email protected] It has been suggested that a stable Leading Edge Vortex (LEV) can be formed from the sharp leading edge of asymmetric spinnakers. If the LEV remains stably attached to the leading edge, it provides an increase in the thrust force. Until now, however, the existence of a stable and attached LEV has only been shown by numerical simulations.

  • Sail Performance Analysis of Sailing Yachts by Numerical Calculations and Experiments
    5 Sail Performance Analysis of Sailing Yachts by Numerical Calculations and Experiments Y. Tahara, Y. Masuyama, T. Fukasawa and M. Katori National Maritime Research Institute, Kanazawa Institute of Technology Osaka Prefecture University, North Sails Japan 1. Introduction Sails of a sailing yacht can be considered as multiple soft thin wings (membrane wings) with relative large cambers, and are often used at large attack angles. The shape of sail is determined as an equilibrium state of both aerodynamic force and tension acting on the sail surface. In particular, a spinnaker used for the running condition is a very soft membrane like a parachute, and the shape is simply formed by self-generated aerodynamic forces which are strongly affected by the sail shape itself. These facts lead to new challenges in the present problem, i.e., in the measurements the sail shape must be accurately measured in the flying condition, and in numerical simulation of flow and forces the sail flying shape is correctly given or predicted as a part of solution. The present study concerns the authors’ ongoing effort on analyses of sail performance of sailing yachts by numerical calculations and experiments, and in this paper, the focus of discussions is more on the former. Two computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods are used in the present study, and the results are validated through detailed comparison with experimental data. The data are obtained in onboard full-scale measurements by using a sail dynamometer boat. Our study concerns both the upwind and downwind sailing conditions; however, we focus on the former in the present chapter due to the limitation of space in this book.

  • Interaction of a Vortex Ring with a Piston Vortex
    J. Fluid Mech. (2002), vol. 465, pp. 353–378. c 2002 Cambridge University Press 353 DOI: 10.1017/S0022112002001118 Printed in the United Kingdom Interaction of a vortex ring with a piston vortex By J. J. ALLEN AND B. AUVITY Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, Princeton† University, Princeton, NJ 08540, USA (Received 5 March 2001 and in revised form 28 February 2002) Recent studies on vortex ring generation, e.g. Rosenfeld et al. (1998), have highlighted the subtle effect of generation geometry on the final properties of rings. Experimental generation of vortex rings often involves moving a piston through a tube, resulting in a vortex ring being generated at the tube exit. A generation geometry that has been cited as a standard consists of the tube exit mounted flush with a wall, with the piston stroke ending at the tube exit, Glezer (1988). We employ this geometry to investigate the effect of the vortex that forms in front of the advancing piston (piston vortex)on the primary vortex ring that is formed at the tube exit. It is shown that when the piston finishes its stroke flush with the wall, and hence forms an uninterrupted plane, the piston vortex is convected through the primary ring and then ingested into the primary vortex. The ingestion of the piston vortex results in an increased ring impulse and an altered trajectory, when compared to the case when the piston motion finishes inside the tube. As the Reynolds number of the experiments, based on the piston speed and piston diameter, is the order of 3000, transition to turbulence is observed during the self-induced translation phase of the ring motion.

  • The Gaussian Laser Beam Transformation Into an Optical Vortex
    Gaussian laser beam transformation into an optical vortex beam by helical lens Ljiljana Janicijevic and Suzana Topuzoski Institute of physics, Faculty of natural sciences and mathematics, University “Ss Cyril and Methodius”, 1000 Skopje, Republic of Macedonia *Corresponding author: [email protected] Abstract In this article we investigate the Fresnel diffraction characteristics of the hybrid optical element which is a combination of a spiral phase plate (SPP) with topological charge p and a thin lens with focal length f, named the helical lens (HL). As incident a Gaussian laser beam is treated, having its waist a distance from the HL plane and its axis passing through the centre of the HL. It is shown that the SPP introduces a phase singularity of p-th order to the incident beam, while the lens transforms the beam characteristic parameters. The output light beam is analyzed in detail: its characteristic parameters and focusing properties, amplitude and intensity distributions and the vortex rings profiles and radii, at any z distance behind the HL plane, as well as in the near and far field. 1. Introduction The optical elements with embedded phase patterns in their phase transmission functions have attracted an increased interest because they produce optical vortex beams [1, 2]. The optical vortex beams or optical vortices possess screw dislocations on their wavefronts, where the phase is nondefined, and accordingly, the wave amplitude and intensity are equal to zero. Due to its helicoidal phase wavefront around the singular axis, the optical vortex beam carries orbital angular momentum (OAM) along its propagation axis [3]. The OAM was shown to be proportional to the topological charge (TC) number of the beam.
