  • CFD Based Analysis of Swietenia Mahogani Seed and Its Applications
    IAETSD JOURNAL FOR ADVANCED RESEARCH IN APPLIED SCIENCES ISSN NO: 2394-8442 CFD Based Analysis of Swietenia Mahogani Seed and its Applications Titu Wilson*1, Anandu Raj *2, Susan K Thomas#3 * Department of Aeronautical Engineering, Mount Zion College of Engineering, Pathanamthitta, Kerala, INDIA, # Assistant Professor, Department of Aeronautical Engineering, Mount Zion College of Engineering, Pathanamthitta, Kerala, INDIA [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract— Swietenia Mahogani (Mahogany) seeds shows an extraordinary falling characteristic known as autorotation. The mahogany seeds are equipped with a small wing, which starts to auto rotate within 1 meter after they are detached from the tree. The seeds rotates in its axis centre similar to that of the gyration of propeller about its pivot point. This motion generates lift which slows down the falling speed and provides an additional time to stay afloat. In this paper the flow field around a mahogany seed under free fall condition is analyzed to discover its aerodynamic characteristics and study about its potential use as a wind turbine. Keywords— Autorotation, Axis centre, Gyration, Pivot point, Swietenia Mahagoni, Wind turbine. I. INTRODUCTION Nature is the best fascinating source of creativity and inspiration. Nature can inspire us about systems structures, designs, materials, processes, aesthetics, etc. Biomimetics is the term used to describe the substances, equipment, mechanism, and systems by humans to imitate natural systems and designs, aiming at solving problems by first examining, and then imitating or drawing inspiration from models in nature [1,2,3]. Mahogany seeds are one of the most generally interesting specimens for biological aerodynamic study within nature.

He was the District Best Farmer in the year 2015. 50 acres of the land is cocoa intercropped with different Timber Tree species. 6 acres of the land is Teak Plantation whilst the remaining 14 acres is for other economic trees species. Examples of these Trees species are Milicia excels (Odum), Entandrophragma cylindricum (Sapele), Triplochiton scleroxylon (Wawa), Cedrela odorata (Cedrela), Khaya ivorensis (Mahogany), Terminalia superba (Ofram), Entandrophragma angolense (Edinam), among others. He has over 6000 tree species, 3000 of which are registered. He also, has 14 acres of Rubber plantation and substantial livestock. QUARM FARMS Mr. Sylvester Quarm is a renowned farmer in the landscape. The J. Y Quarm farms is well known in the country as a model agroforestry farm which has been a huge resource for research and practical demonstrations for students in the country’s tertiary institutions. Mr Quarm has won the Regional Best Farmer title for Western Region a number of times and winning the ultimate title of National Best Farmer is one of his ambitions. The farm is about 150 acres with mixed uses- timber tree plantations, cash crop plantations, food crops, livestock, etc. Some of the tree species including; Milicia excels (Odum), Entandrophragma cylindricum (Sapele), Triplochiton scleroxylon (Wawa), Cedrela odorata (Cedrela), Khaya ivorensis (Mahogany), Terminalia superba (Ofram), Entandrophragma angolense (Edinam), among others.
