The embodiment discloses a method for establishing a numerical simulation model of object falling in ocean current, which specifically comprises the following steps:

As shown in fig. 1, the method for simulating the falling of an object in an ocean current according to the present embodiment includes:

The number of grids in the z-axis direction was set to 1, and the resulting numerical pool was as shown in fig. 2.
To represent the pose of an object in an ocean current, two cartesian coordinate systems are defined. This embodiment simulates the falling of a two-dimensional object in an ocean current. As shown in FIG. 3, (o)gxgyg) Is a world coordinate system in which the origin is fixed to the left of the bottom of the numerical slot, OgxgParallel to the free surface, OgygVertically upwards. (O)cxcyc) Is a load coordinate system, OcFixed at the center of mass of the load, OcxcAnd OgxgParallel, in the same direction, OgygAnd OcycParallel and opposite in direction. The load velocity consists of a horizontal velocity u and a vertical downward velocity v.
(1) Setting the size and grid size of a numerical pool
The numerical value pool is set to generate a grid by using a grid generation tool blockMesh carried by OpenFOAM, wherein the blockMesh is a program for generating the grid in a blocking mode, and the whole calculation domain is regarded as a large block. The calculation area is set as large as possible during the calculation, so that the calculation is not affected by the surrounding fixed wall surface.
(2) Ocean current model
In the whole simulation model, the flow of the numerical value pool fluid is realized by setting the initial conditions and the boundary conditions of the whole numerical value pool. The ocean current model set by us simulates a uniform flow with uniform speed and direction of fluid flow. Ocean currents flow in from the left side and out from the right side. Therefore, in setting the entire ocean current model, setting of the boundary condition is particularly important.
The preset ocean current parameters are as follows:
1) fixed cylinder streaming model
blockmesh:
Since the set pool is a two-dimensional model, the boundary type is set to empty on the front and back surfaces; setting the boundary condition of the cylinder to wall; the upper and lower boundaries of the flow field adopt symmetric boundary conditions to reduce the influence of the blockage rate on the flow; the remaining boundary conditions are set to patch.
U:
The inlet boundary condition is set to fixedValue and the internal velocity of the flow field interfield is set to the same value as the inlet velocity; at the exit of the flow field model, the velocity U is set to zeroGradient. The solid cylinder is set to a fixed value of zero.
p:
At the entrance of the flow field model, the boundary condition of the fluid pressure p is set to zeroGradient. At the exit of the flow field model, the pressure p is set to fixedValue.
2) Ocean current-air model
alpha.water:
The upper and upper left air boundary conditions are set to a fixed value of zero; the entry is set to a fixed value and the value is set to internalField; the exit type is set to variable height flowrate (and lowerBound to 1; upperBound to 0), which provides a phase fraction condition based on local flow conditions, limiting the value to lie between user specified upper and lower limits. The fixed wall boundary condition of the bottom of the pool is set to slip.
blockmesh:
Since the set pool is a two-dimensional model, the boundary type is set to empty on the front and back surfaces; the remaining boundary conditions are set to wall to prevent water from leaking out of the boundary.
U:
The air boundary conditions at the top and left top are set to pressurelnletoutetlettvelocity; at the inlet, the velocity U specifying the boundary condition is set to fixedValue, and the internal velocity of the flow field interfield is set to the same value as the inlet velocity. And the outlet, the speed U is set to zeroGradient, and the bottom of the water tank is set to slip.
p:
The upper and upper left air boundary conditions are set to totalPresure; at the inlet, the boundary condition for the fluid pressure p is set to fixedFluxPressure (where both the value of gradient and value are set to uniform 0). At the outlet, the pressure p is set to zeroGradient. The bottom of the water pool is set to be slip.
Here we have set two ocean current models in succession. The first is an ocean current model with fixed walls on the upper and lower boundaries of the pool model, which is used for simulating and verifying the data of cylindrical streaming so as to ensure the correctness of ocean current parameter setting. The second is that on the basis of the first, a small amount of air is arranged above the ocean current to prevent the imbalance of the gas-liquid pressure. This model can be used for later merging with a model of a free-falling object.
The uniform flow set by the simulation software is stable and convenient to control, and the change of the flow rate can be realized only by modifying the setting of the parameters. In the experimental process, the measured experimental data have small errors and high referential performance no matter for a fixed object or a sinking object.
(3) Moving grid arrangement for object falling
To correctly obtain the velocity and trajectory of the object, a background mesh of hexahedral regions is generated using blockMesh herein. On this basis, the sub-grid of the object is embedded into the background grid through the overset grid. Due to the simple structure of the object, the grid density of the background is uniform. FIG. 4 is an overset grid for simulating the fall of an object in a fluid. The submesh may move freely in the background grid, but the two grids are independent of each other. Although the object displacement is large throughout the calculation, only the relative positions of the two meshes change, and the mesh shapes of the two meshes do not change. Each part of the grid can exchange data so we can compute the entire flow field.
Setting the size and shape of the load. The invention adopts the load with relatively regular and simple shape, so that the initial position coordinates of the object grid are directly set by directly utilizing the blockMesh in OpenFOAM and the object grid is generated. However, the current model can also handle loads with complex and irregular shapes, and in this case, the object mesh can be guided into OpenFOAM after being drawn by CAD drawing software of a third party.
(4) Building equations for object descent
The water in our experiments was set as a two-dimensional viscous incompressible fluid, so the basic governing equations of the continuity equation and the Navier-Stokes equation are as follows:
Figure BDA0002446354150000111
Figure BDA0002446354150000112
wherein
Figure BDA0002446354150000113
Is the laplacian, t is time, x is the position vector, u is the velocity vector, g is the gravitational acceleration, ρ is the fluid density, μ is the fluid viscosity. p is a radical of*Can be defined as:
p*=p-ρg·x
and adding a g file for setting a gravity field into the constant folder, and setting the magnitude and the direction of the gravity acceleration in the file. The density, center of gravity and mass of the object can be set if one wants to simulate free fall movements. Constraint conditions are added according to actual conditions, and the process that the mooring rope hoists the object downwards can be simulated.
(5) Adding ocean currents to a model and solving using a solver
After the dynamic grid, the gravity field and the solver of the set gravity model are set, the initial condition and the boundary condition of the gravity model are set according to the setting of the initial condition and the boundary condition of the whole numerical pool in the ocean current model. The present embodiment uses an incompressible InterDyMFoam, which is based on the law of conservation of mass, the law of conservation of momentum, and the law of transport of volume fractions.
In each time step, firstly, solving the motion parameters of the object through a six-degree-of-freedom (6-DOF) motion equation, and then updating the overjet motion grid through the motion parameters. The solver firstly disperses a mass conservation equation formula and a momentum conservation equation formula for describing fluid motion into a series of algebraic equations in an integral mode on the whole calculation space domain and the whole calculation time domain, so that each tiny grid unit is described by an equation, then solves the equations through simultaneous iteration to obtain an approximate solution of each equation, then obtains physical parameters of each tiny unit, then obtains physical parameters of the whole ocean current pool, and then updates the parameters and carries out next iteration until the iteration is completed.
(6) Data processing and analysis method
And after the solution is completed, the software paraview software is used for checking result information and observing the motion condition, the speed change condition, the fluid pressure change condition and the like of an object in the ocean current, the specific numerical information is extracted into an Excel file, and MAT L AB software is used for sorting data to obtain images and the like of horizontal force and vertical force applied to the load, the motion speed of the load and the motion track changing along with time, so that the motion of different conditions can be conveniently compared and analyzed.
The following specific simulation experiments of OpenFOAM-based object falling in ocean currents:
horizontal cylinder vertical surface falling water (water velocity is zero):
and (4) establishing a numerical calculation water pool according to the steps, and setting the initial falling speed of the cylinder to be 0 at the initial time. Data is output every 0.1s during the calculation. We extract the position of the cylinder every 0.2s, starting from time t-0. Fig. 5 shows the evolution of the vertical position of the cylinder from a rest state, and compared with the actual experiment. It can be seen from the evolution of the position of the cylindrical droplet that, on the same premise, it substantially coincides with the results of the reference experiment and also with the actual state of motion, which is more convenient and economical than physics.
Horizontal cylinder vertical surface falling water (water velocity is not zero):
and (3) establishing a numerical calculation water pool according to the steps, wherein at the initial moment, the lowest point of the horizontal cylinder is superposed with the horizontal plane, the falling speed of the cylinder is set to be 0.5m/s, and the water flow speed is respectively 0.1m/s and 0.2 m/s. Data were output every 0.001s during the calculation. And finally obtaining a simulation result of free falling of the cylinder in the ocean current. Fig. 6 shows the paraview display result.
The position change, speed change and stress data of the cylinder are extracted, and the data of the cylinder along with the change of time is drawn by a MAT L AB, as shown in FIG. 7:
it can be seen that the velocity of the ocean current has a large effect on the movement of the object in the horizontal direction, but a negligible effect in the vertical direction. The tested position change, speed change and stress data have very important reference values in practical engineering.
The method can simulate the free falling of the cylindrical object in the ocean current, import the object grids in various shapes after drawing is completed through blockMesh in OpenFOAM or CAD drawing software of a third party, and simulate the free falling process of the cylindrical object in the ocean current in a numerical pool. Therefore, simulation can be carried out in advance according to the shape of the goods in the actual engineering, hydrodynamic analysis is carried out, and the optimal control scheme is determined in advance.
