Dynamic pressures on a large vertical cylinder due to random waves
AbstractThe hydrodynamic pressures due to random waves on a large vertical cylinder, resting on a flume bed and piercing above the free surface has been investigated experimentally in constant water depth. The test cylinder was fixed with diaphragm-type pressure transducers at nine different pressure ports with one of them at the still water level (S.W.L.) itself. The cylinder was rotated about its own axis to study the pressure distribution around its circumference. The time histories of the water surface elevation and the corresponding dynamic pressures exerted on the cylinder have been analysed in the frequency domain. The experimental results are compared with the theoretical results based on the linear diffraction theory of MacCamy and Fuchs and the agreement is satisfactory. Finally, the hydrodynamic pressure coefficients obtained from random wave tests are compared with those from regular wave tests.
