Abstract
This article examines iceberg movement under the influence of wind-force, with detailed analysis of the influence of iceberg shape (both keel and sail) on the parameters of this movement. For four icebergs, studied during trials in 2016– 2017, hydrodynamic characteristics of keels and sails were determined by means of numerical and basin modeling. For these icebergs, orientation, direction, and speed of movement were calculated for different wind speeds and directions. Regression between the maximum value of the hydrodynamic drag coefficient and the geometric parameters is built based on the studied shape of sails of 10 icebergs. A formula for calculating the wind load on an iceberg depending on the parameters of its topside and a formula for calculating the drift speed of icebergs less than 75 meters long are proposed. The formulas are applied to icebergs of the southwestern part of the Kara Sea, which made it possible to estimate their drift speed and wind load under the influence of wind. The obtained results can be used in the modeling of the iceberg drift, as well as for assessing the wind impact during iceberg towing.
期刊介绍:
The primary aim of the IJOPE is to serve engineers and researchers worldwide by disseminating technical information of permanent interest in the fields of offshore, ocean, polar energy/resources and materials engineering. The IJOPE is the principal periodical of The International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers (ISOPE), which is very active in the dissemination of technical information and organization of symposia and conferences in these fields throughout the world.
Theoretical, experimental and engineering research papers are welcome. Brief reports of research results or outstanding engineering achievements of likely interest to readers will be published in the Technical Notes format.
