Dr Bryce Pearce is a research fellow at the Australian Maritime College's Cavitation Research Laboratory (CRL). The CRL consists principally of a variable pressure water tunnel for investigating cavitation, and bubbly and turbulent flows in a naval hydrodynamics context as well as general fluid mechanics. The CRL water tunnel is one of the most sophisticated medium-sized tunnels worldwide for experimental modeling of the physics of hydrodynamic cavitation. As part of the CRL team Dr Pearce is using the facility to work on internationally relevant problems in the field. Partners of the CRL include the Australian government's Defence Science and Technology Group, the US Office of Naval Research and the Technical Research and Development Institute of the Japanese Ministry of Defence.
Biography
Before joining the University of Tasmania, Bryce established a career as a sea-going marine engineer working for both Australian and international shipping companies. In 2000 he returned to the Australian Maritime College (AMC) to complete a Batchelor of Engineering (Naval Architecture) and then went on to undertake a PhD in field of cavitating flow at the CRL. From 2011, Bryce has been employed as a research fellow at the CRL involved in a broad range of projects involving collaborations with Australian and overseas

Research Themes
Bryce's research aligns with the University's research theme of Marine, Antarctic and Maritime.
His work is in fluid mechanics in a naval hydrodynamics context specialising mainly in cavitating and bubbly flows but also fluid-structure interaction, hydro-acoustics, high Reynolds number turbulent flows and experimental techniques. Our understanding and ability to model these flows and associated phenomena are important for the prediction and ultimate performance of ships and submarines in naval applications. These flows are also important more generally for a range of scientific and engineering processes.
Collaboration
Bryce has a close relationship with the Defence Science and Technology Group (DSTG) who fund, and are a stakeholder in, the major part of the research he contributes to in the Cavitation Research Laboratory (CRL) at the AMC.
Through this collaboration, Bryce is currently collaborating with researchers from Australian Universities including the University of New South Wales. From funding received through the United States Office of Naval Research he is currently collaborating with researchers from the Universities of Michigan, Johns Hopkins University and the United States Naval Surface Warfare Centre, Carderock Division.
Through a recent collaboration, Bryce is involved in a program for DSTG on cavitation inception research as part of the US Multidisciplinary Research Initiative (MURI) in naval hydrodynamics titled “Predicting turbulent multi-phase flows with high fidelity: a physics based approach”. US universities collaborating on the MURI include the University of Minnesota, University of California, California Institute of Technology, University of Iowa, University of Michigan, Johns Hopkins University and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

- Description
- In this research project we propose to use the unique capabilities of the Cavitation Research Laboratory (CRL) at the Australian Maritime College (AMC) to gain new insights into the effects of nucleation on cavitation inception and dynamics in tip leakage flows (TLF) for a two-bladed rotating model. A new testing console will be developed to test rotors up to 500 mm in diameter enclosed within a circular section casing. Experiments will be performed for a range of flow conditions, most importantly including several nuclei populations. The project outcomes include new knowledge on the effects of nuclei on cavitation inception in propulsor TLF and scaling effects, state-of-the-art experimental techniques and data analysis methods, comprehensive experimental database for CFD validation and conference/journal papers

- Description
- The aim of this Research Agreement is to develop nuclei seeding techniques for improved PIV velocity measurements in cavitation tunnels. This includes generation, distribution, and sizing of microbubbles along with demonstration of the efficacy as tracer particles. The project will focus on the development of microbubbles to be used as tracer particles for Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), a laser based technique that measures flow velocity. PIV is a standard non-intrusive measurement technique used in tow tanks and cavitation tunnels where tiny (10 m -20 m) neutral buoyant glass beads are used as the tracer particles. In the UTAS cavitation tunnel and the GTH these glass beads are unsuitable as they provide nucleation sites for cavitation. The glass beads are essentially impossible to completely remove once added to a facility. The use of microbubbles instead of glass beads will provide an easily removed tracer. The study will characterise the use of microbubbles as tracer particles and will require the creation of billions of bubbles a second within a small size bandwidth.

- Description
- In this research project we propose to use the unique capabilities of the Cavitation Research Laboratory (CRL) at the Australian Maritime College (AMC) to gain new understanding of cavitation inception and dynamics in tip leakage flows (TLFs) of hydrofoils and propellers. A single hydrofoil will be fixed in the CRL tunnel test section to create a TLF adjacent to a wall. This configuration will be tested for a range of conditions most importantly including several nuclei populations. These tests will provide new insights in the physics of cavitation nucleation and inception in TLFs, as well as archival experimental datasets useful for design considerations and improvements in computational models for predicting this phenomenon.

- Description
- Turbulent, bubbly and cavitating flows are critical to naval platform capability particularly as they control signatures. These flows remain a scientific challenge due to complex physics involving a large range of spatial and temporal scales ranging from molecular through to ship or submarine sizes. Cavitating and bubbly flows by their multi-phase nature involve a range of physical phenomena and processes ranging from nucleation, surface and interfacial effects, mass transfer via diffusion and phase change to macroscopic flow physics involving, bubble dynamics, turbulent flow interactions and two-phase compressibility effects.This project will engage a diverse range of disciplines to gain new insights into these flow phenomena. New experiments will probe further into the nature of cavitation in turbulent flows relevant to full-scale. Micron-sized bubbles control the physics of cavitation and bubbly wakes that evolve into large-scale flows. Novel optical techniques will be developed to measure these small scale features in laboratory experiments with potential application in operational monitoring on naval platforms. This work will lead the way for new technologies and approaches for design of the next generation of naval platforms.

- Description
- Due to their excellent strength and stiffness properties combined with their low mass, composite materials are being used in a range of undersea naval applications such as rudders, propellers and control surfaces. However, a rigorous understanding of the dynamic behaviour of these structures is required to evaluate their structural integrity. An extreme example is where hydrodynamic forces couple with the structures natural mode of vibration causing a potentially destructive self-reinforcing vibration (flutter). One of the challenges for the analysis of composite structures is that the material density approaches the fluid density and as such the added mass of the fluid must be taken into account. This project will measure the free vibration of a range of metallic and composite hydrofoils. The experiments will be performed both in-air and in-water so that a better understanding of how added mass influences the hydrofoils vibration behaviour can be developed.

- Description
- The ultimate goal of the proposed efforts is to understand the physics of dispersed bubbly flows generated or modulated by ships and underwater vehicles that influence a range of signatures that potentially enable identification and tracking. As a first step towards this goal, experimental efforts are proposed to quantify the influence of the turbulent flow field generated by a lifting surface on the size distribution and dispersion of freestream microbubbles. The proposed efforts are aligned with the Platform Design and Survivability focus area of the US Naval S&T Strategy. The research will be conducted in collaboration with the US researchers, including Prof. S. Ceccio (U. of Michigan), Dr. G. Chahine (Dynaflow, Inc.), Prof. P. Carrica (U. of Iowa), and Prof. K. Mahesh (U. of Minnesota). The project outcome includes new knowledgebase on the dispersed bubbly flow physics, state-of-the-art optical measurements techniques and data analysis methods, comprehensive experimental database for CFD verification and validation, tools and conference/journal papers.

- Description
- The scientific objectives of the project are to develop an experimental capability for generation and measurement of microbubbles in flowing water volumes, and investigate parameters influencing the performance of microbubble generating devices as used in the Cavitation Tunnel for artificial seeding of cavitation nuclei and bubbly flows. Bubble production rates will be derived through application of new laser based diagnostic techniques, which measure local distribution of bubble sizes, their concentration and velocity, in flowing water. The application of this research will enable rigorous investigation of cavitation phenomena about model hydrodynamic bodies and lifting surfaces, and their influence on entrainment and dispersion of microbubbles in their wake, existing in the free stream and generated through cavitation (if the flow conditions allow for inception of phase change). The findings of this research will also be used to assess the feasibility of using the microbubble generation devices to populate the flow with tracer particles suitable for particle image velocimetry (PIV) studies.
