Stability of Cantilevered Pipes Subjected to Internal Flow and External Annular Axial Flow Simultaneously Available to Purchase

When slender pipes are subjected to internal flow, the pipes lose stability by flutter and divergence in increasing the fluid velocity. In addition, they also lose stability when they are subjected to external annular axial flow. In the development of a piping system in the field of ocean mining, and in the field of fluid energy utilization, and so forth, the double walled pipe structure system subjected to an internal flow and an external flow simultaneously is thought to be one of the important pipe structures. In this paper, the pipe structures are assumed to be composed of the cantilevered beam structure which shows the complicated dynamic behavior than the other supported conditions. For the analysis of the internal flow, the conventional inviscid stability analysis method is applied. For the analysis of the external annular axial flow, both the viscous solution using the Navier-Stokes equation of motion and the ideal fluid solution which viscous influence is added to are applied. Changing the flow direction and the fluid velocity of the internal flow and the external flow, and the specifications of modeling, the stability of the double walled pipes is investigated and discussed.
