On the use of bend–twist coupling in full-scale composite marine propellers for improving hydrodynamic performance

Marine propellers are designed to work for a particular operating condition. However, a propeller often requires to operate at different off-design conditions, when its hydrodynamic efficiency drops. In this paper, a comprehensive numerical study is presented on the use of bend–twist coupling of composite propeller blades for improving their hydrodynamic efficiency at off-design conditions. The analysis is carried out on a full-scale propeller of diameter 4.2 m, considering the complete viscous turbulent flow, as the loading and deformation of model propellers that have been typically studied in literature for this purpose cannot be extrapolated to a full-scale prototype propeller. The open water performance is estimated using the finite volume method employing the pressure based RANS equation for the steady, incompressible, turbulent flow. The deformation analysis is done using the finite element method based on the first order shear deformation theory for composite laminates. The fluid–structure interaction is incorporated in an iterative manner. The effect of laminate configurations on the maximum twist achieved in the blade is studied for four different composite materials. The numerical study reveals that, within the limits of material safety, the twist generated in the deformed propeller using commonly used composite materials is inadequate to create any noticeable change in the hydrodynamic efficiency. When the material failure is ignored, however, it is possible to generate sufficient deformation and twist that can cause appreciable improvement in the hydrodynamic performance.     

Performance-based design and analysis of flexible composite propulsors

Advanced composite propellers, turbines, and jet engines have become increasingly popular in part because of their ability to provide improved performance over traditional metallic rotors through exploitation of the intrinsic bend–twist coupling characteristics of anisotropic composite materials. While these performance improvements can be significant from a conceptual perspective, the load-dependent deformation responses of adaptive blades make the design of these structures highly non-trivial. Hence, it is necessary to understand and predict the dependence of the deformations on the geometry, material constitution, and fluid–structure interaction responses across the entire range of expected loading conditions.The objective of this work is to develop a probabilistic performance-based design and analysis methodology for flexible composite propulsors. To demonstrate the method, it is applied for the design and analysis of two (rigid) metallic and (flexible) composite propellers for a twin-shafted naval combatant craft. The probabilistic operational space is developed by considering the variation of vessel thrust requirements as a function of the vessel speed and wave conditions along with the probabilistic speed profiles. The performance of the metallic and composite propellers are compared and discussed. The implications of load-dependent deformations of the flexible composite propeller on the operating conditions and the resulting performance with respect to propeller efficiency, power demand, and fluid cavitation are presented for both spatially uniform and varying flows. While the proposed framework is demonstrated for marine propellers, the methodology can be generally applied for any marine, aerospace, or wind energy structure that must operate in a wide range of loading conditions over its expected life.     

Fluid–structure interaction analysis of flexible composite marine propellers

There is an increasing interest in the marine industry to use composites to improve the hydrodynamic and structural performance of naval structures. Composite materials have high strength-to-weight and stiffness-to-weight ratios, and the fiber orientations can be exploited to tailor the structural deformation to reduce the load and stress variations by automatically adjusting the shape of the structure. For marine propellers, the bending–twisting coupling characteristics of anisotropic composites can be exploited to passively tailor the blade rake, skew, and pitch distributions to improve propeller performance. To fully explore the advantages of composite marine propellers, a coupled boundary element (BEM) and finite element (FEM) approach is presented to study the fluid–structure interaction of flexible composite propellers in subcavitating and cavitating flows. An overview of the formulation for both the fluid and structural models is presented. Experimental validation studies are shown for two composite propellers tested at the Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWCCD). The feasibility of passive hydroelastic tailoring of composite marine propellers is discussed.     

Study on fluid-structure interaction in liquid oxygen feeding pipe systems using finite volume method

The fluid-structure interaction may occur in space launch vehicles,which would lead to bad performance of vehicles,damage equipments on vehicles,or even affect astronauts’ health.In this paper,analysis on dynamic behavior of liquid oxygen (LOX) feeding pipe system in a large scale launch vehicle is performed,with the effect of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) taken into consideration.The pipe system is simplified as a planar FSI model with Poisson coupling and junction coupling.Numerical tests on pipes between the tank and the pump are solved by the finite volume method.Results show that restrictions weaken the interaction between axial and lateral vibrations.The reasonable results regarding frequencies and modes indicate that the FSI affects substantially the dynamic analysis,and thus highlight the usefulness of the proposed model.This study would provide a reference to the pipe test,as well as facilitate further studies on oscillation suppression.
