Relevance to Science / Engineering / Product Design

The pace of academic endeavors, discovery and information continues to grow at an exponential rate Scientists and Engineers are constantly challenged or asked to do more with less Time and expense of developing industrial and research equipment test must be reduced Quality and safety must continue to rise We must all be stewards of our precious environment Cut and try approaches in science and engineering must be supplemented or replaced with simulation
Many mature software tools exist from ANSYS, across an enormous range of physical disciplines, which enable research and the development and testing of both concepts and products through physics based numerical simulation

CFD Modeling of Oil Spill

Past CFD studies employed VOF approach to study oil spill
Free surface was captured by VOF Linear wave profiles was used to describe wave boundary condition Studies were limited to 2D Studies were conducted for different wavelength and amplitude

Current CFD Model

Full 3-dimensional Model Volume of Fluid (VOF) Approach
A single set of momentum equations is solved and the volume
fraction of each immiscible phase is tracked Three phases Air, Water and Oil is considered
Open channel wave boundary condition -used to prescribe wave motion A fifth order stokes wave theory is used to describe a non-linear wave Turbulence Realizable k- model

Comparison of measured and calculated underwater sound pressure at a distance of 245 meters from the pile. Knowing the sound propagation law for this region, the sound pressure at 750 meters can be calculated and converted into decibels (dB).
Underwater sound generation and propagation shown as a sequence of snapshots in time. Within a steel pile, the speed of sound is about 5,000 meters per second, while the speed of sound in water is about 1,500 meters per second resulting in radiation patterns and specific inclination angle.

Propulsion Systems
Rolls-Royce uses simulation for propeller design to reduce marine fuel consumption.
According to a 2003 study from the University of Delaware, international commercial and military shipping fleets consume approximately 289 million metric tons of petroleum per year, which is more than twice the consumption of the entire population of Germany. The ANSYS FLUENT simulations run on the modified propeller geometry predicted that the efficiency would increase by 1 percent to 1.5 percent, and physical experiments confirmed that this was, in fact, the case.

Insets: Photographs of the blade indicating the locations of the simulation where cavitation is present (noticeable as pitting). ANSYS FLUENT results helped reduce pressure at the blade root in the CP-A design, indicated by the lack of cavitation erosion present in the CP-A photo. 2011 ANSYS, Inc. August 12, 2011
Propulsion Systems
Cavitation Effects
For water pumps, marine propellers, and other equipment involving hydrofoils, cavitation can cause problems such as vibration, increased hydrodynamic drag, pressure pulsation, noise, and erosion on solid surfaces. Most of these problems are related to the transient behaviour of cavitation structures. To better understand these phenomena, unsteady 3D simulations of cavitating flow around single hydrofoils are often performed and the results are compared to experiments

Cavitating Flow Over a Hydrofoil
Cavitating flow over a cambered two-dimensional wing section was simulated using ANSYS Fluent CFD solver. The flow angle over the NACA 66 (MOD) hydrofoil is chosen to represent conditions that are common in water pump and marine propeller applications. Excellent agreement with experimental data is obtained for mid-chord cavitation, and satisfactory agreement is obtained at the trailing edge of the cavitation region.
