Abstract
- Oblique water entry of a rigid paraboloid is investigated by fully nonlinear boundary element method. The deadrise angle of the paraboloid increases gradually from zero at the bottom tip and a slenderness coefficient is introduced to symbolize the shape of the paraboloid. Convergence study with respect to time step and element size is carried on to assure the numerical procedure. The free surface elevation and pressure distribution are depicted in time domain. The present solution is compared with the linearized Wagner method and the composite solution with spray jets to investigate the influence of exact fully nonlinear boundary conditions. As there is no sharp edge or tip around the paraboloid, the water flows over the body both from lateral side and down side in oblique entry, the stagnation point relative to the body moves towards the flow-coming direction, and the negative pressure can be observed on both lateral side and down side of the paraboloid. The horizontal speed has great influence on horizontal total force and little influence on vertical total force, while the effect of the slenderness coefficient just has the opposite effect.
