This paper presents an extensive review of the characteristics of a propeller jet-induced flow
field and its impact on scour formation. As the driving force of scour, the jet flow behavior is …

The wake from a tidal current turbine has a significant impact on a tidal farm. A single turbine
wake would affect the turbine located adjacent or downstream. Two equations are proposed …

The jet induced by a rotating ship propeller can cause scouring of the seabed and
consequent deposition of the scoured material nearby. Despite these effects are extremely …

A full understanding of the hydrodynamic processes within the jet produced by a
manoeuvring ship's propeller is essential in the development and maintenance of ports …

The failure of swirling ship propellers in marine environments can lead to huge repair costs.
One of the main causes of such failure is when propellers tangle with vegetation, especially …

This paper presents an improvement for the assessment of scour effects due to propeller jet
velocities with a direct application to prototype modeling as non-dimensional analysis is …

Bathymetry changes induced by marine propeller jets on movable beds are a crucial issue
in harbors, especially in the maneuvering zone. The knowledge of the scour hole and …

The densimetric Froude number, F 0, which depends on the propeller rotational speed, n,
and on the median diameter of bed sediments, d 50, is the main parameter considered by …

Field data of a harbour basin are compared with analytical formulations for predicting
maximum scouring depth due to propeller jets. Spatial data analysis of seven-year biannual …

This study experimentally investigates the mean and turbulent flow fields of a propeller jet
impinging on a vertical quay wall. Four impingement distances, namely, wall clearances …
