Hydrodynamic analysis of under water platforms is gaining a lot of attention, Computational Fluid Dynamics has revolutionized the field of fluid dynamics in terms of number of solutions available for computation of complex fluid flows associated with real world problems. This book aims at comparing the hydrodynamic flow around four different designs. The first design shape is fully elliptical where the other three have different nose, body and tail profiles. Pressure contours were developed at different angle of attack and from these contours lift forces and moments were found. After doing...

The purpose of this research activity is towards identifying the location to install Flush Port Air Data System (FADS) on different aerodynamic shapes. FADS systems typically have in excess of 10 pressure ports/sensors. Flush Port Pressure Sensors are symmetrically placed on the airframe. The pressure measured at each port varies as the airframe manoeuvres. Pressure Difference between corresponding ports on top and bottom of an aerodynamic body correspond to changes in AoA. Potential Flow Theory can be used for preliminary analysis because of its linearity for predicting the flow...

Typically wind is very cheaper than any fuel. Import/Export is the basic need of every country which is usually done through sea where there is a large wind potential. Sky Sail is a new emerging technology by virtue of which the ship is towed by a sail. The Sky Sail System is used parallel to and for relief of the main engine, if wind conditions allow. The main engine's propulsion power remains fully available if required. This dual propulsion solution offers the flexibility required to minimize operating costs. In this book aerodynamic calculations are done using a sky sail whose dimensions...

The aim is to work in energy sector particularly in renewable and sustainable energy sector. In a country with a great wind corridor, wind energy is the best renewable source. The project is about Feasibility Study of Wind Turbine and its Design Suitable for the coastal region of Pakistan including wind data, best potential sites, available resources & economical Analysis. The project can give an idea about procedure to be followed for an Investor interested in Wind Harvesting in Pakistan. It also includes the application and designing of a system with suitable size and capacity according to...
