Two-Phase Multi-Point Design Exploration of Submerged Nacelles for Marine Propulsive Pump Installation Open
Outboard Dynamic-inlet Waterjets (ODW) are axisymmetric units, powered by a self-contained pump, that, by processing a uniform undisturbed streamtube, can operate more efficiently than conventional marine propulsors. This feature also prov…

ARES: A Meanline Code for Outboard Dynamic-Inlet Waterjet Axial-Flow Pumps Design Open
We introduce the solver ARES: Axial-flow pump Radial Equilibrium through Streamlines. The code implements a meanline method, enforcing the conservation of flow momentum and continuity across a set of discrete streamlines in the axial-flow …

ANALYSIS OF DRAG SOURCES IN A FULLY SUBMERGED WATERJET Open
A parametric study is conducted to optimise the drag performance of a novel concept of ram inlet waterjet. The latter being an outboard device housing the whole propulsion system. The study follows the guidelines from aero-engines literatu…

Design-Assisted of Pitching Aerofoils through Enhanced Identification of Coherent Flow Structures Open
This study discusses a general framework to identify the unsteady features of a flow past an oscillating aerofoil in deep dynamic stall conditions. In particular, the work aims at demonstrating the advantages for the design process of the …
