THE DEVELOPMENT AND RESEARCH OF FLUID-STRUCTUREINTERACTION FOR COMPOSITE PROPELLER

Abstract

Abstract: The method of fluid-structure interaction is one of the important tools in the composite propeller performance study because composite propeller has a larger deformation than metal propeller that makes the previous simple fluid or structure research methods unavailable. Hydrodynamic performance and structural response of composite propeller can be obtained by solving the equations of fluid-structure interaction. However, the fluid-structure interaction equations are implicit which is very difficult to be solved directly. The most effective way to solve the equations is the numerical solution methods. In this paper, the main stream fluid-structure interaction numerical analysis method(VLM/FEM, BEM/FEM, CFD/FEM)was introduced by reviewing and summarizing the composite propeller fluid-structure interaction papers from both domestic and foreign. In order to provide reference for further investigate, the paper briefly describes the research and development status of composite propeller fluid-structure interaction and points out the development trend for the future.
