When fluid flows around an object at high speed, like water around a ship's propeller, it may form bubbles like water boiling. This phenomenon is called cavitation. Instead of temperature increase causing the water to boil, a reduction in pressure causes the bubbling in cavitation. The process is violent and chaotic. Bubbles form and collapse with enough power to erode metal. The violent formation and collapse of vapour bubbles also create a lot of noise. This is a serious problem for vessels that require low noise levels for their survival.
The chaos, violence and beauty of cavitation
Professor Paul Brandner of the Australian Maritime College is the leader of an experimental group studying fluid mechanics and naval hydrodynamics. He and his team are working with the defence industry on acoustic signature reduction of naval vessels.
'The objective of our current research is to determine how to make ships and submarines as quiet as possible,' said Professor Brandner.
Professor Brandner and his team are currently partnered with the Australian Government's Defence Science and Technology Organisation, the US Office of Naval Research and the Technical Research and Development Institute of the Japanese Ministry of Defence.
'Our facilities are some of the most advanced internationally for their size and the type of work that we are doing,' he said.
They are also using the $10 million facility to explore how structures respond to extreme flows, in particular turbulence and its effect on structural vibrations.
'Turbulence and cavitation around vessels create highly transient loads that cause structural vibration that are another source of noise,' he said.
The applications for understanding the phenomenon of cavitation are broad. Cavitation occurs in liquid flows in fuel injectors in cars, ships, aircraft, hydroelectric turbines and rocket fuel pumps. It also occurs in biological and natural processes.
'The snapping shrimp and mantis shrimp use cavitation to capture their prey, and cavitation actually occurs in trees!' said Professor Brandner.
'Many of the physical processes involved with cavitation are common with other phenomena, such as the nucleation and gaseous diffusion forming tiny bubbles within a glass of champagne or soft drink, or breaking waves in the ocean forming bubbles that promote dissolution of atmospheric (greenhouse) gases.'
What drives Professor Brandner is sheer enjoyment of his work.
'Cavitation is captivating. It is beautiful and interesting. It is also chaotic. There is so much we don't understand, and every time you think you've solved a problem, there is something new.
'Cavitation problems also require a multidisciplinary approach, so I work with a diverse range of interesting people from other specialised fields, which I really enjoy,' he said.
The next focus of Professor Brandner's research is the nucleation mechanisms of cavitation.
'We'd like to understand how cavitation starts, what the nucleation mechanisms are.'
The knowledge uncovered by Professor Brandner and his team is used by modelling experts to develop computational tools to predict fluid flow as accurately as possible.
Professor Paul Brandner is manager and research leader of 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. Professor Brandner and his team are 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 Organisation, the US Office of Naval Research and the Technical Research and Development Institute of the Japanese Ministry of Defence.
Biography
Paul has worked in naval hydrodynamic research at the AMC for his entire graduate career, obtaining a PhD from the University of Tasmania in 1996. Since then he has mainly specialised in cavitation and bubbly flows. During the late 1990s, Paul had several sabbatical periods at the Norwegian Marine Technology Research Institute (MARINTEK) learning of applied cavitation research and facility operation. This work was funded by two Department of Industry Science and Tourism, International Science and Technology Program Grants (1996-1997 and 1997-1998).
From 2001, Paul conceived and led the development of the Cavitation Research Laboratory (CRL) at the AMC funded under the AusIndustry Major National Research Facilities Program. The CRL is a suite of facilities; the main one being a variable pressure water tunnel designed to be one of the most advanced for experimental modelling of hydrodynamic cavitation physics internationally. Throughout his career, Paul has developed long term collaboration with the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) on submarine related hydrodynamics that involve a range of other collaborations with universities and institutions nationally and internationally.

Research Themes
Paul's research aligns with the University's research theme of Marine, Antarctic and Maritime.
Large scale hydrodynamic flows remain a challenge due not only to their non-linear dynamical nature, but the large range of physical and temporal scales involved with the turbulent and multi-phase aspects; and associated interactions that may occur between phases and/or affected structures. For ships and submarines, the propulsion and control equipment are located in the highly turbulent flow at the stern and are typically heavily loaded creating unsteady pressures that along with turbulence and cavitation generate noise and vibration.
Cavitation may strictly be defined as the change of phase, from liquid to vapour, that occurs when the static pressure in the liquid on, or about, a body is reduced below the vapour pressure. It is similar to boiling but the driving mechanism is pressure rather than heat. It is a complex phenomenon and places limitations on the performance of submerged machinery. It may cause thrust breakdown in propulsors and hydrofoils, loss of efficiency, metal erosion, noise, vibration and ultimately destruction of machinery.
Interest in cavitation has traditionally been in hydraulic and hydrodynamic applications such as in naval hydrodynamics, hydro-electric machinery, nuclear plant and rocket propulsion. Modern research is more diverse and often focused on basic fluid dynamic phenomena with applications additionally in medicine, biomedical engineering and biology. Cavitation in this context is more appropriately defined as encompassing all phenomena involving the interaction between vaporous or gaseous volumes (or cavities) with flowing or non-flowing liquid volumes.
These flows are of obvious importance for signature minimisation of naval vessels be they from acoustic radiation or wakes that may be detected through electromagnetic or acoustic means etc. They are also important for predicting and managing through-life costs of large infrastructure, reducing noise from research vessels or cruise ships and, for example, for minimising the noise effects global shipping has on marine life. Understanding the physics of these flows are important for processes such as the rate of dissolution of atmospheric gases in the ocean to understand the role of the oceans in modulating atmospheric changes.

- 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.

- 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.

- Description
- Biofouling, the growth of nuisance bacteria or algae, is a significant problem in canals and pipelines and causes efficiency losses of up to 10% in hydroelectric power systems. This project aims to develop strategies to maximise renewable electricity production through biofouling mitigation. It will move our understanding of frictional wall flows from typical engineering roughness to more complex interacting organic surfaces, a critical contribution to scientific knowledge. The potential impacts of climate change on the development of biofouling and its impact on operation will also be studied. The data will be applied to improve design methods for conduits and provide industry with tools to identify strategic areas for treatment.
