The problem of flow-induced vibration has been studied extensively. However, much of this research has focused on the smooth cylinder to gain an understanding of the mechanisms that cause vortex-induced vibration. In this paper results of an investigation of the effect of surface roughness on the cross-wind forces are presented. Measurements of the sectional RMS fluctuating lift forces and the axial correlation of the pressures for Reynolds numbers from 1 × 105 to 1.4 × 106 are given. It was found that surface roughness significantly increased the axial correlation of the pressures to similar values found at high subcritical Reynolds numbers. There was little effect of the surface roughness on the sectional lift forces. The improved correlation of the vortex shedding means rough cylinders will be subject to larger cross-wind forces and an increased possibility of vortex-induced vibration compared to smooth cylinders.

In this paper we conduct study on flow-induced vibration of large-span upwelling radial steel Gate and its hydraulic hoist. Place an emphasis on vibration response characteristics under two working conditions of diversion and drainage, which proves the safety of hydraulic hoist gate vibration caused by gate vibration. Firstly, we study on dynamic characteristics of fluid-structure interaction of association system of gate and start and stop lever, reveals the discipline of the effect fluid having on structural dynamic characteristics. On this basis, flow-induced vibration characteristics under two conditions of with and without start and stop lever action considered. The results indicate that the gate vibration response with hydraulic hoist used decreases, which explains start and stop lever has certain effect of restraining vibration on gate vibration. In addition, under the working condition of drainage the vibration magnitude of start and stop lever is smaller than that of gate body, which explains there is damping action during transference of gate vibration through start and stop lever. The results find out that on the assumption of optimized gate structure and hydraulic arrangement, it is practicable, safe and reliable to adopt hydraulic hoist. The achievement has directive significance on similar projects construction in the future

Experiments regarding flow-induced vibration on floating squared section cylinders with low aspect ratio were carried out in an ocean basin with rotating-arm apparatus. The floating squared section cylinders were elastically supported by a set of linear springs to provide low structural damping to the system. Three different aspect ratios were tested, namely L/D = 1.0, 2.0 and 3.0, and two different incidence angles, namely 0 and 45 degrees. The aims were to understanding the flow-induced vibration around single columns of multi-column platforms, such as semi-submersible and TLP. VIV on circular cylinders were also carried out to compare the results. The range of Reynolds number covered was 2,000 < Re < 27,000. The in-line and transverse amplitude results showed to be higher for 45-degree incidence compared with 0-degree, but the maximum amplitudes for squared section cylinders were lower compared with the circular ones. The double frequency in the in-line motion was not verified as in circular cylinders. The yaw amplitudes cannot be neglected for squared section cylinders, maximum yaw amplitudes around 10 degrees were observed for reduced velocities up to 15.

This paper presents the results of an experimental work on the effects of boiling heat transfer regimes on the flow-induced vibration (FIV). The experiment has been performed using an electrically heated vertical round tube through which water flows at atmospheric pressure. Vibration characteristics of the heated tube are changed significantly by heat transfer regimes and flow patterns. For single-phase liquid convection, the rod vibrations are negligible. However, on the beginning of subcooled nucleate boiling at tube exit, vibration level becomes very large. As bubble departure occurs at the nucleation site of heated surface, the vibration decreases to saturated boiling region where thermal equilibrium quality becomes 0.0 at tube exit. In saturated boiling region, vibration amplitude increases with exit quality up to a certain maximum value due to the reinforced turbulence then decreases. At liquid film dryout condition, vibration could be regarded as negligible, however, these results cannot be extended to DNB-type CHF mechanism. Frequency analysis results of vibration signals suggested that excitation sources be different with heat transfer regimes. This study would contribute to improve the understanding of the relationship between boiling heat transfer and FIV.
