Book Analyse et simulation des probl  mes de r  action diffusion avec hydrodynamique

Download or read book Analyse et simulation des probl mes de r action diffusion avec hydrodynamique written by Karam Allali and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce travail est consacré à l'analyse et aux simulations numériques des problèmes de réaction-diffusion avec l'hydrodynamique. Dans le chapitre 1, on étudie numériquement dans un domaine borné de IRd le problème d'évolution où le système de réaction-diffusion est couplé avec les équations de Navier-Stokes dans l'approximation de Boussinesq. Ce chapitre contient deux parties : dans la première, nous avons démontrer sous certaines conditions adéquates le résultat d'unicité de la solution du problème continu. Ensuite, nous avons établis quelques estimations d'erreurs a priori en espace sur la vitesse, pression, température et concentration. Dans la deuxième partie de ce chapitre, une discrétisation complète d'espace-temps est considérée. La stabilité du schéma est étudiée et des estimations d'erreur a priori sont obtenues à la fois pour la vitesse, pression, température et concentration. Dans le chapitre 2 on étudie le problème stationnaire. On s'intéresse à l'écoulement d'un fluide visqueux incompressible régi par les équations de Navier-Stokes, lorsqu'elles sont couplées avec l'équation de la chaleur non linéaire. On démontre des résultats d'existence et d'unicité pour le problème continu, le problème discrétisé avec une méthode d'éléments finis mixtes et une intégration numérique sont considérés, puis on effectue l'analyse numérique de son approximation. On démontre des majorations d'erreurs à la fois sur la vitesse, la pression et la température. En conclusion, on propose un estimateur d'erreur a posteriori efficace. Dans le chapitre 3, on s'intéresse à l'instabilité convective des fronts de réaction. On étudie le phénomène de la polymérisation frontale dans le cas où le réactif est liquide et le produit de la réaction est solide. L'influence des vibrations sur l'instabilité convective du front est étudiée. Le modèle inclut l'équation de la chaleur, l'équation pour la concentration et les équations de Navier-Stokes considérées sous l'approximation de Boussinesq. Pour cela, nous avons utilisés une approche analytique basée sur la méthode de la zone infiniment étroite proposée originellement par Zeldovich et Franck-Kamentsky. Cette approche est justifiée par la méthode des développements asymptotiques raccordés. Les conditions de l'instabilité convective et de l'instabilité paramétrique sont déterminées. Dans le chapitre 4, on étudie la propagation des flammes en phase gazeuse avec une réaction chimique consécutive A-B-C est étudiée. Le modèle inclut l'équation de la chaleur, deux équations pour les fractions massiques, et les équations de Navier-Stokes dans l'approximation de petit nombre de Mach. Les régimes de propagation et la structure de la flamme sont étudiés comprenant les flammes convexes et les flammes de tulipe résultant de l'instabilité hydrodynamique ou de l'instabilité thermo diffusive.

Book Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics

Download or read book Liquid Metal Magnetohydrodynamics written by J.J. Lielpeteris and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liquid metal MHO is within the scope of two series of international conferences. One is the International Congress on "MHD Power Generation", held every four years, which includes technical and economical aspects as well as scientific questions. The other if the Beer-Sheva Seminar on "MHO Flows and Turbulence", held every three years in Israel. In addition to these well established meetings, an IUTAM Symposium was previously organized in Cambridge (UK) in 1982 on "Metallurgical Applications of MHD" by the late Arthur Shercliff. It was focussed on a very specific subject developing radiply from the middle of the 1970's. The magnetic field was generally AC, including frequencies high enough for the skin-depth to be much smaller than the typical length scale of the liquide pool. And the development of new technologies, or the improvement of existing ones, was the main justification of most of the researches presented and discussed. Only two participants from Eastern countries attended this Symposium. By the middle of the 1980's we felt that on this very same topic ideas had reached much more maturity than in 1982. We also realized that a line of research on MHD flows related to fusion reactors (tokamaks) was developing significantly, with particular emphasis on flows at large interaction parameter.

  • Author : Uriel Frisch
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2012-12-06
  • ISBN : 9401151180
  • Pages : 630 pages

Download or read book Advances in Turbulence VII written by Uriel Frisch and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 630 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advances in Turbulence VII contains an overview of the state of turbulence research with some bias towards work done in Europe. It represents an almost complete collection of the invited and contributed papers delivered at the Seventh European Turbulence Conference, sponsored by EUROMECH and ERCOFTAC and organized by the Observatoire de la Côte d'Azur. New high-Reynolds number experiments combined with new techniques of imaging, non-intrusive probing, processing and simulation provide high-quality data which put significant constraints on possible theories. For the first time, it has been shown, for a class of passive scalar problems, why dimensional analysis sometimes gives the wrong answers and how anomalous intermittency corrections can be calculated from first principles. The volume is thus geared towards specialists in the area of flow turbulence who could not attend the conference as well as anybody interested in this rapidly moving field.

Book Groundwater Modelling in Arid and Semi Arid Areas

Download or read book Groundwater Modelling in Arid and Semi Arid Areas written by Howard S. Wheater and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-09-09 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arid and semi-arid regions face major challenges in the management of scarce freshwater resources under pressures of population, economic development, climate change, pollution and over-abstraction. Groundwater is commonly the most important water resource in these areas. Groundwater models are widely used globally to understand groundwater systems and to guide decisions on management. However, the hydrology of arid and semi-arid areas is very different from that of humid regions, and there is little guidance on the special challenges of groundwater modelling for these areas. This book brings together the experience of internationally leading experts to fill a gap in the scientific and technical literature. It introduces state-of-the-art methods for modelling groundwater resources, illustrated with a wide-ranging set of illustrative examples from around the world. The book is valuable for researchers, practitioners in developed and developing countries, and graduate students in hydrology, hydrogeology, water resources management, environmental engineering and geography.

Book Organic Micropollutants in the Aquatic Environment

Download or read book Organic Micropollutants in the Aquatic Environment written by G. Angeletti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than 10 years after the "First European Symposium on Organic Micropollutants in the Aquatic Environment", the "Sixth Symposium" was held in Lisbon (Portugal) from 22 to 24 May 1990. The Symposium was organised within the framework of the Concerted Action COST 641 * which is included in the Fourth R&D Programme on the Environment of the Commission of the European Communities expiring at the end of 1990. After restructuring the Concerted Action in 1984, particular attention has been devoted to fate and transformation of organic micropollutants in the aquatic environment. Therefore, a major aim of the Symposium was to review current studies and progress in these areas, besides more general aspects related to analytical methodologies and behaviour of pollutants during water treatment processes. This volume contains the plenary papers presented in the following sessions at the Symposium: - Multidisciplinary studies - Partitioning of organic micropollutants in the aquatic environment - Novel analytical techniques in environmental chemistry - Monitoring micropollutant - Degradation of organic micropollutants during field conditions - Reclamation of polluted ground water - Chemical and photochemical oxidation - Future of environmental chemistry. In addition, extended versions of posters are included, covering the four topics which are dealt within the four Working Parties forming the structure of the Concerted Action: 1. Analytical methodologies 2. Transport and distribution 3. Transformation reactions 4. Water treatment. We believe that the Proceedings give a good overview of current activities in these fields of research in Europe.
