Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of computational fluid dynamics, and in particular to a BEM-SPH coupled numerical method for wedge-shaped body water slamming based on the concept of overlapping computational domains. Background Art

[0002] Water slamming is the violent interaction between fluid and structure caused by the relative motion of fluid and structure within a short period of time. The slamming process is extremely brief and is characterized by dramatic changes in the wetted surface of the structure, strong nonlinear motion of the fluid, curling and even fragmentation of the free surface, and strong nonlinear coupling between the fluid and the structure. It is a transient, strongly nonlinear hydrodynamic problem. Intense slamming loads can easily cause local deformation and damage to the structure, affecting its overall motion performance. The water slamming problem of fluid and structure is very common in engineering. Examples include the water slamming of underwater vehicles during launch, the bow slamming of ships sailing in waves, and the slamming of seaplanes landing on the sea. These real-world slamming scenarios can be approximated by the physical model of the water slamming of wedge-shaped structures. Therefore, the study of simulation methods for the water slamming problem of wedge-shaped structures is of great significance in the field of marine engineering, providing theoretical guidance and technical support for the development of high-tech equipment.

[0003] The SPH (Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics) method, a meshless technique that has garnered significant attention in recent years, can automatically track the free surface, exhibits excellent conservation properties, and avoids numerical dissipation caused by discretization errors in convection terms. For water slamming, a typical example of severe fluid-structure interaction, the SPH method demonstrates significant advantages. However, due to the extremely short duration of high-amplitude load responses during slamming, SPH numerical simulations suffer from severe pressure oscillations, resulting in inaccurate capture of the slamming load peak and hindering analysis of the cross-media load-bearing capacity of structures. The Boundary Element Method (BEM), a relatively well-developed method with a relatively sophisticated theoretical foundation and numerical techniques, has been widely recognized for its accuracy in simulating wedge-shaped body slamming. However, due to the continuity requirements of the boundary mesh, it cannot simulate structural motion and subsequent flow field after the slamming event. Furthermore, it lacks the ability to simulate the liquid surface curling and droplet splashing induced by the slamming event. Summary of the Invention

Set the initial state parameters of the BEM model, including the wedge mass, bottom lift angle, water entry velocity, water entry angle, flume width, wall height, number of surface grids, number of free surface grids, number of side wall grids, and number of flume bottom grids. The BEM simulation duration is set by the physical height of the wedge.

[0058] The geometric dimensions and velocity variables are established in the extended coordinate system to ensure that the BEM simulation maintains a reasonable and stable grid scale from the initial water contact to the liquid surface rise. The conversion relationship between the relevant physical quantities between the extended coordinate system and the physical coordinate system is:

[0113] The technical solution of the present invention is now illustrated by taking the problem of a wedge-shaped body slamming into water at a uniform velocity vertically as an example. The simulation includes the following steps:

[0114] Step 1: At the initial moment, establish the following in the extended coordinate system: Figure 1 The numerical model shown (in the extended coordinate system, the apex of the wedge Direction coordinates The coordinates of the wedge's apex do not represent its physical height or immersion depth. Initial values ​​for the required parameters are assigned to the model. In the simulation, the wedge's base rise angle β = 45°, height h = 1 m, bottom width l = 2h = 2 m, and entry velocity W = 10 m / s. The water depth d = 10 m, the tank's bottom width L = 2d = 20 m, and the left and right wall heights H = d = 10 m are used. The object surface grid count n1 = 40, the free surface grid count n2 = 120, the side wall grid count n3 = 50, and the bottom grid count n4 = 20.

[0115] Step 2: After the BEM calculation model is initialized, the response calculation begins, and the simulation duration is 0 <t<t c , t c is the specified coupling time step. In this example, t c = h / W = 0.1s, at which point the wedge's depth into the water is equal to its physical height, the initial slamming phase has been completed, and the free surface has not yet curled, deformed, and splashed, and the post-slamming fluid dynamic evolution phase has not yet begun. Four pressure measuring points are arranged on the wedge surface (such as Figure 2 As shown), BEM stage (ie 0 <t<t c ) The time history curve of the impact pressure coefficient at each measuring point is shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 As shown, the calculation formula of the slamming pressure coefficient is C p =P / (ρW 2 ), where P is the pressure value at the measuring point, unit is Pa, and the water density is ρ = 1000 kg / m 3 As the water depth increases, pressure responses appear at each measuring point one by one, and all the measuring points reach the stable section of slamming pressure before the coupling time step.

[0116] Step 3: At the coupling time step (t = t c =0.1s), considering the contribution of the boundary element, calculate the influence coefficient c ij (1≤i,j≤380). In the fully nonlinear theoretical model solved by BEM, the number of boundary grids will increase as the free liquid surface rises during the water entry process, t=t c When n1+n2+n3+n4=380. The influence coefficient c at the coupling time step in this example is ij , velocity potential and solving linear algebraic equations The obtained source strength σ j The calculation results are as follows Figure 4 shown.

[0117] Step 4: At the coupling time step (t = t c = 0.1s), s = 1, the point coordinate values ​​are consistent in the extended coordinate system and the physical coordinate system, and the free liquid surface is cut off from the jet reversal point (such as Figure 5(as shown), obtain the truncated free surface elevation calculation data of the BEM model at the current time step. Taking the truncated free surface considering the influence of the liquid surface rise during the water entry process as the geometric boundary, the wedge boundary and the water tank boundary are consistent with the BEM model. Among them, the wedge boundary moves to the position where the water entry depth s = 1m. Set the particle spacing Δx = 0.05m, and initialize the SPH particle spatial distribution model. The specific results are as Figure 6 shown. In this example, the number of fluid particles n f = 79297, the number of wedge particles n w = 441, and the number of water tank boundary particles n b = 799.

[0118] Step Five: At the coupled time step (t = t c = 0.1s), set the SPH fluid particles as the control points P i (1 ≤ i ≤ 79297), and calculate the unit induced velocity of the distributed sources on the boundary surface element j (1 ≤ j ≤ 380) to the control point P i . By traversing and multiplying with the source strength σ j , obtain the induced velocity at the control point P i . Furthermore, obtain the fluid particle velocity transferred by the BEM model In this example, the vector diagram of the fluid particle velocity transferred at the coupled time step is as Figure 7 shown. Due to the impact effect during the water entry of the wedge, the transfer velocity is generally greater in the near-wedge region than in the near-control surface region.

[0119] Step Six: Taking the particle number Idp as the medium, transfer the fluid particle velocity calculated by the BEM model to the SPH numerical model, and assign the values of the required physical quantities to the SPH calculation model. In this example, ρ0 = 1000 kg / m 3 , coef sound = 20, δ = 0.1, υ0 = 1.0×10 -6 m 2 / s, select the Wendland-type kernel function, and the smoothing length

[0120] Step Seven: Start the SPH numerical model, calculate the particle density, pressure gradient force and viscous force, calculate the velocity change rate and update the particle information, and step forward according to the prediction-correction time format until the set simulation duration T = 0.5s and the time step coefficient CFL = 0.3. The particle evolution results at typical moments in the SPH stage (t c < t < T) are as Figure 8 shown. Attached Figure 8 (a) The distribution of the velocity cloud diagram is the same as that of Attached Figure 7As the wedge further enters the water, the free surface begins to separate and gradually curls and deforms, realizing the simulation of the flow field evolution after the wedge is fully immersed.

[0121] Through the above steps, the entire structural dynamic evolution of a wedge-shaped object during uniform water entry, from impact with the liquid surface to complete immersion, was calculated. The numerical results of this example demonstrate the rationality and effectiveness of the simulation. The proposed BEM and SPH coupled numerical model effectively simulates the entire wedge-shaped object entry process.

[0122] While the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions, and alterations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention.
