1 Enhancing Oscillation Amplitude Response Generated by Vortex Induced Vibrations Through Experimental Identification of Optimum Parameters

Authors: Mohammed F. Alhaddad

Abstract:

Vortex Induced Vibrations (VIV) is a phenomenon that occurs as a result of a flow passing by a bluff body. The aim of this paper is to identify factors for maximizing oscillation amplitude generated by VIV in order to enhance the energy harnessed through this method. The experimental study in this paper will examine the effect of oscillating cylinder diameter, surface roughness, the location of surface roughness with respect to the centreline of the oscillating cylinder and the velocity on the oscillation amplitude of the used module.

Keywords: Energy, renewable, electrostatic, vibration, vortex.
