养殖工船横摇-垂荡耦合运动对养殖舱自清洗水动力特性的影响

Effect of roll-heave coupled motion of aquaculture vessel on hydrodynamic characteristics of self-cleaning in aquaculture tank

  • 摘要:
    目的 针对养殖工船在风浪激励下横摇、垂荡运动引发的养殖舱内水体晃荡,影响残饵、粪便等污染物输运与沉积问题,探究横摇-垂荡耦合激励参数(晃荡周期、幅值)对养殖舱自清洗水动力特性的影响规律,有助于提升污染物排出效率、优化养殖水质、减少能源消耗。
    方法 本研究结合养殖工船实际作业情况,选用常见的70%载液率与四进水管进水模式开展实验,污物汇集实验通过向养殖舱投放模拟残饵、粪便的污物颗粒,观测记录其在不同流场下的运动路径、汇集位置及效率,获取汇集特性数据,为养殖舱排污性能评估提供支撑。粒子图像测速实验通过向流体撒布示踪粒子,高速相机拍摄轨迹并经图像分析算法计算速度场分布,获取舱内流场瞬时及平均速度信息,支撑流场分布特性分析。
    结果 结果显示,养殖舱自清洗污物汇集特性与耦合激励幅值呈正相关,与耦合激励周期呈负相关。晃荡周期为4 s,横摇和垂荡幅值为2.5°和30 mm工况下集污时间最短;晃荡周期为8 s,横摇和垂荡幅值为0.5°和10 mm工况下集污时间最长,两种工况下的集污时间相差约85.8%,且横摇幅值对集污效果的影响比垂荡幅值更显著。养殖舱中缩短晃荡周期和提升耦合激励强度可优化流场分布特性,使养殖舱内高速水流区域及中心高速涡旋区域面积增加,增强流体扰动,有效提高养殖舱集污性能。
    结论 本研究揭示了养殖工船横摇-垂荡耦合激励参数对养殖舱自清洗水动力特性的作用规律,有助于提升残饵粪便排出速率、改善养殖水质及节能减排,为养殖工船自清洗性能优化提供理论支撑,对深远海养殖技术发展具有积极意义。

     

    Abstract: Against the backdrop of pollutant transport and sedimentation (e.g., uneaten feed and fecal matter) in culture tanks of aquaculture workboats, which is triggered by liquid sloshing from roll and heave motions under wind-wave excitation, this study explored the impact of coupled roll-heave excitation parameters (sloshing period, amplitude) on the self-cleaning hydrodynamic characteristics of culture tanks. The objectives were to enhance pollutant removal efficiency, optimize water quality, and minimize energy consumption. The experimental design aligned with operational scenarios of aquaculture workboats, conducting tests under a 70% liquid loading rate with a four-inlet water supply configuration. By merging Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) and pollutant collection experiments, the study analyzed pollutant accumulation and flow field distribution characteristics. Results showed a positive correlation between self-cleaning pollutant collection efficiency and coupled excitation amplitude, and an inverse correlation with excitation period. The shortest collection time occurred at a 4 s sloshing period with 2.5° (roll) and 30 mm (heave) amplitudes, while the longest occurred at 8 s with 0.5° (roll) and 10 mm (heave)—an 85.8% difference. Roll amplitude impacted collection performance more significantly than heave amplitude. Shortening the sloshing period and intensifying coupled excitation optimized flow fields, expanding high-velocity regions and central vortices, enhancing turbulence, and improving collection efficiency. This study elucidates the governing laws of coupled roll-heave excitation on self-cleaning hydrodynamics, providing theoretical support for optimizing aquaculture workboat self-cleaning performance. The findings enable precise regulation of water exchange cycles to reduce energy consumption, advancing the green transformation of fisheries in line with carbon peak and neutrality goals. This research enhances deep-sea aquaculture sustainability through efficient pollutant management and drives high-quality marine economic development via energy-saving, eco-friendly practices.
