3-D trajectory analysis of wave-impact sea spray over a marine vessel

Sea, River, Lake Ice Properties and Their Applications in Practices

“…Researchers have previously investigated the generation of sea spray from a single wave striking the hull of a ship. One of the more in-depth studies was conducted by Dehghani (2018) [40] for the examination of the trajectory study of sea spray. In order to determine the position, velocity, and acceleration of the sea spray, his paper makes the assumption that the sea spray is spherical and substitutes Newton's law based on the drag, body force, and added mass force on the sea spray.…”

“…The arithmetic model in this paper is shown in Figure 3b, derived from the model of Dehghani et al in Figure 3a. Since this paper only considers the distribution of droplets rising to descending to the hull as a percentage, the subsequent droplets moving with the wind on the hull are less (Dehghani, 2018), so the wind speed and the size of the droplets can be ignored. The total width of the hull is 7.3 m and the height of the foremast is 8 m, in order to measure the highest humidity of the foremast for comparison with the model calculated by Dehghani and Zakrzewski.…”

Design, Development and Deployment of a Novel Sea Spray Collector for Sea-Spray Flux Measurements

“…The incoming spray flux is produced from two primary sources, one generated from the impact between waves and the hull, and the other formed by the wind tearing off droplets from wave crests, resulting in spume droplets. Various factors, including the structure shape, size, speed of the vessel, and the orientation of the hull or structure relative to waves and wind influence the incoming spray flux under specific meteorological and oceanographic conditions (Bodaghkhani et al, 2016;Dehghani et al, 2018Dehghani et al, , 2016aDehghani et al, , 2016b. The complexities associated with the trajectory of water droplets by airflow and the unique interactions with different structures make it challenging to directly apply theoretical and observational results between vessels or structures (Roebber and Mitten, 1987).…”
