Fatigue Analysis of Pure Waterjet Nozzle-A CFD and FEA Approach
Quanchang Li1, a, Kai He1, b and R.
The results obtained from two simulations (velocity, pressure) show a good agreement with the theoretical predictions, which indicates that the approach based on CFD and FEA is absolutely feasible.
To predict the nozzle failure, a simulation approach based on CFD and FEA is adopted to analyze fatigue failure of pure waterjet nozzle and the first failure point inside nozzle is found out.
In addition, the turbulence model was used in the CFD.
The whole simulation process was shown in Fig. 1.

Abstract: Analyze veracity and computing efficiency of direct route drag of axis symmetry revolution body with 2D Computer Fluid Dynamic (CFD) method by comparing to the experiment data, discuss affection of different wall boundary functions to the results when calculating Automatic Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) hydrodynamic performance in CFD method.
CFD simulation of direct or oblique towing test Steady RANS equations could be adopted to calculate force and moment of AUV when simulating direct, or oblique, towing test, because relative motion does not happen.
Force calculation of non-revolution body and ordinary AUV. 2D method could not be applied to simulation of non-revolution body and ordinary AUV, however, most AUVs are bilateral symmetry, half of a fluid field could be meshed to do the simulation, this is also a good method to save time.

Recent advances in CFD modeling make it possible for three-dimensional (3D) simulations of complex multiphase flows in columns.
It is remarkable to note that the clear liquid height obtained from the CFD simulations agrees well with the experiment data of Zhou .et al [3].

However, CFD simulation produced a higher velocity in the vicinity of vortex zone when compared to experimental data.
Second-order upwind scheme (QUICK scheme, third-order MUSCL scheme) are recommended for the CFD simulation of ship airwakes with a modest increase in computational cost. y+ values from o(10) to o(1000) can all be accepted for the CFD simulation of ships(e.g., SFS1 ) with Reynolds number 108 or more.
Simulations were carried out with various spatial discretization schemes-mesh-Wind Over Deck (WOD) combinations by using commercial CFD program FLUENT.
However, velocity magnitude of CFD simulation was higher compared to experimental data.
The use of realistic geometries for use in CFD airwake simulations will, therefore, be used in future work.
