| Sumario: | Part 2 of this work presents a numerical methodology, validated using the experimental results presented in Part 1, to calculate the added modal coefficients of a submerged cylinder in water both when it oscillates and when it rotates with a whirling motion. The numerical methodology is based on computational fluid dynamic simulations that obtain the added modal forces on the cylinder when it is forced to vibrate with mode shapes calculated using acoustic-structural modal analysis. Then, these forces are processed with a curve-fitting algorithm to extract all the coefficients. Most numerical coefficients presented a close agreement with the corresponding experimental ones, although the added modal damping was overestimated. In general, the added modal mass was found to be independent of both the rotating speed and the whirling frequency except for low whirling frequencies when it increased. The added modal damping was found to depend on both parameters, and the rest of the coefficients were independent of the whirling frequency and only depended on the rotating speed. As a conclusion, this numerical approach has permitted the study of particular conditions that could not be experimentally tested and thus broadened the knowledge of the behavior of the added modal coefficients of rotating submerged cylinders. |
