Undersea Observatory Platform Shape Design and Sinking Calculation Based on Fluent

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to research the drag force and balance characteristics of undersea observatory platform during the sinking process. The effect base in different shape and arrangement on the flow field are studied with the help of Fluent, the relationship that how shape and arrangements of base influences drag force and balance characteristic are studied. The results show that pressure drag is the main component of the whole drag force. Round pie base suffer the least drag force, adopting the arrangement that put a round pie base at each vertex of hexagon, undersea observation platform would maintain good stability during the sinking process.
