DYNAMICS OF OSCILLATING TURBULENT FLOW OVER COASTAL BUILDINGS IN PORTS USING AI TECHNIQUES
Abstract
Time-dependent CFD models were used to simulate the flow structures over a square cylinder in oscillating flow. Two-dimensional models were used to study the hydrodynamic forces under sinusoidal flow boundary conditions that were predicted by machine learning algorithms. The study also examines the specifications of the caused entropy around a square cylinder under various conditions, as well as the examination of the second law. It is found that the flow structures and forces values were sensitive to any change in input flow parameter and rotation angle. Furthermore, it is found that the angle 10 degree of rotation object, gives best result for entropy generation in this work.
