| Abstract |
Research on floating bodies like Wave Energy Converters (WECs) and Laser Imaging Detection And Ranging (LIDAR) systems has recently known a large growth. To study the minute details of the working model, it is important to study the effect of interactions between the waves, floating bodies and the mooring systems that are controlling the motion of the floating body. To achieve a more realistic numerical model in the time domain, a number of programs are linked together. The idea is to use the strength of each individual program for better results and also reduce the computational time.This paper provides a solution in the direction of using a fully coupled time domain coupling code that controls the data flow between a fluid solver, a structural solver, and a kinematic system simulator.Two- and three-dimensional fully coupled models are studied for calculation times and accuracy of results, and scaling is tested through parallelization on a large HPC cluster. The time step size of the whole model can be controlled by the user. Calculation times and memory requirements vary largely based on the factors like: domain size, SPH particle size, material model used for the floating body and the mooring system, complexity of the mechanical system inside the floating body. As a test case, a rigid body model is presented in this paper. |
