Abstract

GARCIA PELAEZ, Javier  and  NIETO SEVILLA, Isabel Ainhoa. Thermal Wake on Narco-Semi-Submergibles and other Vortex Effects. Rev. Cient. Gen. José María Córdova [online]. 2013, vol.11, n.11, pp.141-152. ISSN 1900-6586.

A decade and a half of experimental and theoretical studies on dynamics and interactions of vortex structures in stratified fluids have been developed by Sergey I. Voropayev (PhD) and other collaborators in order to provide a public consistent set of mathematical and numerical models of vortex structure interactions, which have high civil and military interest. For submarine design, this effort provides a rational scope to design its stealth against the wake-homing torpedoes. For frontier or coastguard forces, it provides some key questions to thermal wake semi-submersibles searching, which could be improved if some physics are detailed.

Keywords : Vortex structures; stratified fluids; wake-homing torpedoes; thermal wake; narco-submersibles.
