RISMulticylinder Flow Induced Motions: Enhancement by Passive Turbulence Control at 28,000<Re<120,000
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The VIVACE converter was introduced at OMAE2006 as a single, smooth, circularcylinder module. The hydrodynamics of VIVACE is being improved continuously to achieve higher density in harnessed hydrokinetic power. Intercylinder ...
Selective Surface Roughness to Suppress Flow Induced Motion of Two Circular Cylinders at 30,000 < Re < 120,000
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In the Marine Renewable Energy Laboratory of the University of Michigan, selectively located surface roughness has been designed successfully to suppress vortexinduced vibrations (VIV) of a single cylinder by 60% compared ...
Sensitivity to Zone Covering of the Map of Passive Turbulence Control to Flow-Induced Motions for a Circular Cylinder at 30,000 ≤ Re ≤ 120,000
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Passive turbulence control (PTC) in the form of two straight roughness strips with variable width, and thickness about equal to the boundary layer thickness, is used to modify the flow-induced motions (FIM) of a rigid ...
Hydrokinetic Energy Conversion by Flow-Induced Oscillation of Two Tandem Cylinders of Different Stiffness
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The vortex-induced vibration for aquatic clean energy (VIVACE) converter harnesses hydrokinetic energy by enhancing flow-induced oscillations (FIOs) of elastically supported rigid cylinders in a river, tide, or ocean ...
