In this paper, a three-dimensional storm surge model was developed based on the Finite Volume Community Ocean Model (FVCOM) by the hindcasts of four typhoon-induced storm surges (Chan-hom, Mireille, Herb, and Winnie). After model validation, a series of sensitivity experiments were conducted to explore the effects of key parameters in the wind and pressure field (forward speed, radius of maximum wind (RMW), inflow angle, and central pressure), typhoon path, wind intensity, and topography on the storm surge and surge asymmetry between sea level rise (positive surge) and fall (negative surge) along the southeastern coast of China (SCC). The model results show that lower central pressure and larger RMW could lead to stronger surge asymmetry. A larger inflow angle results in a stronger surge asymmetry. In addition, the path of Chan-hom is the most dangerous path type for the Zhoushan Archipelago area, and that of Winnie follows next. The model results also indicate that the non-linear interaction between wind field and pressure field tends to weaken the peak surge elevation. The effect of topography on storm surges indicates that the peak surge elevation and its occurrence time, as well as the surge asymmetry, increase with a decreasing slope along the SCC.

Abstract Three-dimensional fluid-solid interaction problems with regard for thermal stresses are considered. An elastic structure is assumed to be a bounded homogeneous isotropic body occupying a domain , where the thermoelastic four dimensional field is defined, while in the unbounded exterior domain there is defined the scalar (acoustic pressure) field. These two fields satisfy the differential equations of steady state oscillations in the corresponding domains along with the transmission conditions of special type on the interface ∂Ω±. We show that uniqueness of solutions strongly depends on the geometry of the boundary ∂Ω±. In particular, we prove that for the corresponding homogeneous transmission problem for a ball there exist infinitely many exceptional values of the oscillation parameter (Jones eigenfrequencies). The corresponding eigenvectors (Jones modes) are written explicitly. On the other hand, we show that if the boundary surface ∂Ω± contains two flat, non-parallel sub-manifolds then there are no Jones eigenfrequencies for such domains.

A partially-parabolic calculation procedure is used to calculate flow in a centrifugal impeller. This general-geometry, cascade-flow method is an extension of a duct-flow calculation procedure. The three-dimensional pressure field within the impeller is obtained by first performing a three-dimensional inviscid flow calculation and then adding a viscosity model and a viscous-wall boundary condition to allow calculation of the three-dimensional viscous flow. Wake flow, resulting from boundary layer accumulation in an adverse reduced-pressure gradient, causes blockage of the impeller passage and results in significant modifications of the pressure field. Calculated wake development and pressure distributions are compared with measurements.

In order to verify an inverse design concept for modern compressor bladings, a subsonic compressor front stage with IGV was investigated. One objective of the design was to survey the flow field in detail, with emphasis on 3D viscous and unsteady aspects of the flow. Therefore, the compressor was equipped with various steady and unsteady measurement techniques. Additionally, a compressor design was chosen that allows an extension up to three stages with regard to the investigation of multistage axial compressor flow behavior. Test results of the steady measurements are discussed for IGV, rotor, and stator flow at design conditions as well as the overall stage performance. The measurements of the steady flow behavior confirm the expected design performance and show the high potential of the controlled diffusion airfoil concept. Only at the side walls near hub and casing there are some differences between design and measurement due to the complex three dimensional flow. For the study of unsteady effects, detailed measurements using hot-wire probes, glue-on hot-films, and semiconductor pressure transducers were performed. All measurements are evaluated using the ensemble-average technique. The results show how the boundary layers of the inlet guide vanes and stator blades develop in a flow that is periodically disturbed by the rotor. Time-dependent pressure distributions at midspan of both stators are described. In addition, the unsteady pressure field at the casing above the rotor was investigated. The minimum wall pressure is located away from the blade suction surface. The effects of tip clearance flow on the performance are presented. The radial extent covers 15% span from the tip. At rotor exit, the unsteady pressure field and the time-dependent three-dimensional velocity vectors illustrate the salient features of the viscous flow associated with the rotor.

This paper describes numerical simulations of the instability mechanisms in a separation bubble subjected to a three-dimensional freestream pressure distribution. Two direct numerical simulations are performed of a separation bubble with laminar separation and turbulent reattachment under low freestream turbulence at flow Reynolds numbers and streamwise pressure distributions that approximate the conditions encountered on the suction side of typical low-pressure gas-turbine blades with blade sweep angles of 0° and 45°. The three-dimensional pressure field in the swept configuration produces a crossflow-velocity component in the laminar boundary layer upstream of the separation point that is unstable to a crossflow instability mode. The simulation results show that crossflow instability does not play a role in the development of the boundary layer upstream of separation. An increase in the amplification rate and most amplified disturbance frequency is observed in the separated-flow region of the swept configuration, and is attributed to boundary-layer conditions at the point of separation that are modified by the spanwise pressure gradient. This results in a slight upstream movement of the location where the shear layer breaks down to small-scale turbulence and modifies the turbulent mixing of the separated shear layer to yield a downstream shift in the time-averaged reattachment location. The results demonstrate that although crossflow instability does not appear to have a noticeable effect on the development of the transitional separation bubble, the 3D pressure field does indirectly alter the separation-bubble development by modifying the flow conditions at separation.
