Abstract
Abstract Underwater manipulators are taking on an increasingly significant function in marine biological fishing operations. Under the action of the ocean flow field, vortex-induced vibration will be induced, which will cause fatigue damage or even fracture of the underwater manipulator. Based on the Ansys fluid-solid coupling software, this paper simulates the vortex-induced vibration response characterizations of underwater manipulators under pulsating flow conditions. The pulsation flow at the entrance is realized by changing the velocity amplitude and pulsation frequency. The influence laws of pulsating frequency and amplitude on the CL , CD, and wake vortex shedding are investigated. The results showed that the CL and CD of the underwater manipulator increased by 133.33 % and 39.18 %, respectively, with an increase in the pulsation parameter. Additionally, with the increase of pulsating frequency, the banded vortex behind the underwater manipulator is gradually obvious, and the energy in the vortex is also increasing.
