Book A Conservative Meshless Framework for Conservation Laws with Applications in Computational Fluid Dynamics

Download or read book A Conservative Meshless Framework for Conservation Laws with Applications in Computational Fluid Dynamics written by Kwan Yu Chiu and published by Stanford University. This book was released on 2011 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mesh generation, which is essential to most traditional numerical discretizations, often remains the bottleneck of the simulation process. Many researchers have developed meshless algorithms to circumvent mesh generation. Unfortunately, almost all existing meshless methods suffer from the lack of formal discrete conservation, which can lead to unpredictable numerical errors in the presence of discontinuities. This thesis addresses the issue of non-conservation in existing meshless methods. It focuses on the formulation and implementation of a novel conservative meshless scheme and its applications in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The scheme, first of such nature documented in the literature, is formulated based on obtaining derivative approximations using function values and generated coefficients satisfying a set of reciprocity and polynomial consistency conditions. The required coefficients are generated by the solution of a global quadratic program. They minimize an upper bound of a representation of the global discretization error in addition to satisfying the necessary conditions. A generalization of the derivative approximation allows the use of arbitrary consistent interface values in the derivative operator while maintaining discrete conservation. This creates a flexible framework within which a wide variety of numerical flux schemes, such as those previously developed for finite volume discretization, can be used with no additional costs. The practicality of this new framework is demonstrated by solving compressible flow problems using, without modifications, a piece of software designed for finite volume discretization. The meshless numerical results show superconvergence and compare well with those obtained using meshed finite volume discretizations and other meshless schemes, highlighting the validity of the new framework and its potential to be applied to problems of greater complexity and scale.

Book Designing High Density Cities

Download or read book Designing High Density Cities written by Edward Ng and published by Earthscan. This book was released on 2009-12-16 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compact living is sustainable living. High-density cities can support closer amenities, encourage reduced trip lengths and the use of public transport and therefore reduce transport energy costs and carbon emissions. High-density planning also helps to control the spread of urban suburbs into open lands, improves efficiency in urban infrastructure and services, and results in environmental improvements that support higher quality of life in cities. Encouraging, even requiring, higher density urban development is a major policy and a central principle of growth management programmes used by planners around the world. However, such density creates design challenges and problems. A collection of experts in each of the related architectural and planning areas examines these environmental and social issues, and argues that high-density cities are a sustainable solution. It will be essential reading for anyone with an interest in sustainable urban development.

Book Optimization of a Low Heat Load Turbine Inlet Vane

Download or read book Optimization of a Low Heat Load Turbine Inlet Vane written by Jamie J. Johnson and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often there is a distinction between the design of turbomachinery airfoils for aerodynamic performance and durability. However, future aero-engine systems require ever increasing levels of turbine inlet temperature causing the durability and reliability of components to be an ever more important design concern. As a result, the need to incorporate heat transfer predictions into traditional aerodynamic design and optimization systems presents itself. Here, an effort to design an airfoil with both acceptable aerodynamics and minimized heat load is reported. First, a Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) flow solver was validated over different flow regimes as well as varying boundary conditions against extensive data available in literature. Next, a nominal turbine inlet vane was tested experimentally for unsteady heat load measurements in a linear cascade. The tests were performed in a reflected shock tunnel to validate the flow solver further at the current experimental conditions, and special attention was paid to leading edge and suction side heat-flux characteristics. The nominal airfoil geometry was then redesigned for minimum heat load by means of both design practice and two types of optimization algorithms. Finally, the new airfoil was tested experimentally and unsteady heat load trends were compared to design levels as well as the nominal vane counterpart. Results indicate an appreciable reduction in heat load relative to the original vane. Thus, it is a credible proposition to design turbine airfoils for aero-performance and durability concurrently.

Download or read book Brain Edema XIV written by Zbigniew Czernicki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-10-08 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The XIV International Symposium on Brain Edema and Brain Tissue Injury took place in Warsaw, Poland, on 11–14 June 2008. Two prominent members of the International Society for Brain Edema: Dr. Igor Klatzo and Dr. Julien Hoff have passed away after the last 2005 Symposium in Ann Arbor, USA. Dr. Igor Klatzo was actually the founder of the Society, and the Advisory Board decided to commemorate Dr. Igor Klatzo by introducing a lecture named after him to be given at the Symposium. Prof. Dr. Hans-Jürgen Reulen has been honored to give the frst Igor Klatzo lecture entitled “Bulk Flow and Diffusion revisited, and Clinical Applications”. This volume contains 65 out of the 104 papers presented at the Symposium as lectures or posters. The topics of the Symposium were similar to those discussed at the previous ones. Many discussions focused on clinical work especially diagnosis, subarachnoid hemorrhage, hydrocephalus, and traumatic brain injury. Diagnosis and therapy, including surgical methods, have also been verifed. Much attention was drawn to the application of decompressive craniectomy in the treatment of posttr- matic intracranial hypertension. The pathomechanisms of brain edema and tissue injury studied in experimental models have been also presented.
