Centrifugal pumps are a crucial part of nuclear power plants, and their dependable and safe operation is crucial to the security of the entire facility. Cavitation will cause the centrifugal pump to violently vibration with the large number of vacuoles generated, which not only affect the hydraulic performance of the centrifugal pump but also cause structural damage to the impeller, seriously affecting the operational safety of nuclear power plants. A closed cavitation test bench of a centrifugal pump is constructed, and a method for precisely identifying the cavitation state is proposed based on Complementary Ensemble Empirical Mode Decomposition (CEEMD) and Deep Residual Shrinkage Network (DRSN). First, we compared the cavitation sensitivity of pressure fluctuation, vibration, and liquid-borne noise and decomposed the liquid-borne noise by CEEMD to capture cavitation characteristics. The decomposition results are sent into a 12-layer deep residual shrinkage network (DRSN) for cavitation identification training. The results demonstrate that the liquid-borne noise signal is the most cavitation-sensitive signal, and the accuracy of CEEMD-DRSN to identify cavitation at different stages of centrifugal pumps arrives at 94.61%

Cavitation is a phenomenon caused by vapour cavities that is produced in rapid pressure changes. When the cavitation happened, the sound pressure level of a underwater radiated noise is increased rapidly. As a result, it can increase the probability of the identification or classification of a our warship's acoustic signature by an enemy ship. However, there is a problem that it is hard to precisely detect the occurrence of a cavitation noise. Therefore, this paper presents recent improvements in terms of the cavitation noise measurement by using continuous wavelet transform and DEMON(Detection of Envelope Modulation on Noise) signal processing. Then, we present that the suggested scheme is more suitable for detecting the cavitation than existing algorithms.

PRAIRIE(Propeller Air Induced Emission) system is a kind of underwater radiated noise suppression systems to reduce the probability of the identification or classification of our warship's acoustic signature by an enemy ship. It is effective in case of strong cavitation events. This is because air bubbles emitted from the PRAIRIE system mitigate drastic collapses of the cavity bubbles that can generate an intense shock wave. However, when the PRAIRIE system is operated in a non or weak cavitation condition, it might increase the total level of underwater radiated noise and induce the acoustic signatures. Therefore, this paper presents the trial results on ventilation control of PRAIRIE to find a more efficient operation depend on the cavitation condition. Then, we show a variation of the amplitude modulation characteristics according to ventilation control.

본 논문은 모형 프로펠러를 대상으로 공동수조 시험, 수중 충격시험, 유한요소해석 및 전산유체해석에 기반하여 수행한 명음 발생 메커니즘 연구이다. 선미 유동을 모사하기 위해 반류망, 프로펠러 및 방향타를 설치하고 수중청음기와 가속도계로 프로펠러 명음 현상의 발생과 소멸을 계측하였다. 유한요소해석을 통해 프로펠러 날개의 고유진동수를 예측하고 접촉 및 비접촉식 충격시험으로 이를 검증하였다. RANS(Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes) 방정식 기반 전산유체해석을 통하여 프로펠러 날개 각 단면의 유속과 유효 받음각을 계산하였으며, DES(Detached Eddy Simulation) 기반 고해상도 해석을 통해 명음 발생 위치에서 2-D 날개 단면 뒷전의 와류흘림주파수(vortex shedding frequency) 계산을 수행하였다. 수치적으로 예측된 와류흘림주파수는 모형시험으로 계측한 명음 발생 주파수 및 날개 고유진동수와 일치함을 확인하였다.

A two-frame PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry) technique is used to investigate the wake characteristics behind a marine propeller with 4 blades at high Reynolds number. For each of 9 different blade phases from $ 0^{\circ} $ to $ 80^{\circ} $, one hundred and fifty instantaneous velocity fields are measured. They are ensemble averaged to study the spatial evolution of the propeller wake in the region ranging from the trailing edge to one propeller diameter (D) downstream location. The phase-averaged mean velocity shows that the trailing vorticity is related to radial velocity jump, and the viscous wake is affected by boundary layers developed on the blade surfaces and centrifugal force. Both Galilean decomposition method and vortex identification method using swirling strength calculation are very useful for the study of vortex behaviors En the propeller wake legion. The slipstream contraction occurs in the near-wake region up to about X/D : 0.53 downstream. Thereafter, unstable oscillation occurs because of the reduction of interaction between the tip vortex and the wake sheet behind the maximum contraction point.
