Book Computational Fluid Dynamics Methods for Low Reynolds Number Precessing Spinning Incompressible Flows

Download or read book Computational Fluid Dynamics Methods for Low Reynolds Number Precessing Spinning Incompressible Flows written by Michael J. Nusca and published by . This book was released on 1988 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three dimensional, steady-state, laminar, fully viscous Navier-Stokes simulations were used to predict the behavior of incompressible liquids that were undergoing steady spin and steady precession at a fixed precession angle. These numerical simulations can predict steady viscous and pressure moments. These moments tend to increase the precession angle and reduce the spin rate of the container system. For a completely filled cylinder, liquid-induced roll and side (yaw) moments were computed as functions of cylinder height to diameter. Keywords: Finite difference, Incompressible flow, Liquid-filled projectile, Liquid moment, Low reynolds number, Rotating liquids.

Book Computational Fluid Dynamics Method for Low Reynolds Number Flow in a Precessing Spinning  Liquid Filled Cylinder with Rounded Endcaps

Download or read book Computational Fluid Dynamics Method for Low Reynolds Number Flow in a Precessing Spinning Liquid Filled Cylinder with Rounded Endcaps written by Michael J. Nusca and published by . This book was released on 1989 with total page 37 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flight stability of liquid-filled, spin-stabilized projectiles has been considered for a wide variety of conditions. The three-dimensional, steady, laminar, Navier-Stokes equations are solved using an implicit finite- difference scheme based on successive-over-relaxation. These numerical simulations are used to predict the behavior of incompressible liquids undergoing steady spin and steady precession at a fixed precession angle. The liquid is contained in a fully-filled cylinder with flat or rounded endcaps. These numerical simulations can predict steady viscous and pressure moments due to the liquid fill at low Reynolds number. These moments tend to increase the precession angle and reduce the spin rate of the container. Liquid-induced roll and side (yaw) moments are computed as functions of endcap height to cylinder radius, cylinder half-height to radius, Reynolds number, ratio of precession to spin rate, and precession angle. For a given cylinder, rounded endcaps can decrease the resonant liquid-induced moment by about 25% and shift the resonance to a smaller Reynolds number.

Book High Resolution Methods for Incompressible and Low Speed Flows

Download or read book High Resolution Methods for Incompressible and Low Speed Flows written by D. Drikakis and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-08-02 with total page 623 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of incompressible ?ows is vital to many areas of science and te- nology. This includes most of the ?uid dynamics that one ?nds in everyday life from the ?ow of air in a room to most weather phenomena. Inundertakingthesimulationofincompressible?uid?ows,oneoftentakes many issues for granted. As these ?ows become more realistic, the problems encountered become more vexing from a computational point-of-view. These range from the benign to the profound. At once, one must contend with the basic character of incompressible ?ows where sound waves have been analytically removed from the ?ow. As a consequence vortical ?ows have been analytically “preconditioned,” but the ?ow has a certain non-physical character (sound waves of in?nite velocity). At low speeds the ?ow will be deterministic and ordered, i.e., laminar. Laminar ?ows are governed by a balance between the inertial and viscous forces in the ?ow that provides the stability. Flows are often characterized by a dimensionless number known as the Reynolds number, which is the ratio of inertial to viscous forces in a ?ow. Laminar ?ows correspond to smaller Reynolds numbers. Even though laminar ?ows are organized in an orderly manner, the ?ows may exhibit instabilities and bifurcation phenomena which may eventually lead to transition and turbulence. Numerical modelling of suchphenomenarequireshighaccuracyandmostimportantlytogaingreater insight into the relationship of the numerical methods with the ?ow physics.

Book Computation of Viscous Incompressible Flows

Download or read book Computation of Viscous Incompressible Flows written by Dochan Kwak and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-12-14 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph is intended as a concise and self-contained guide to practitioners and graduate students for applying approaches in computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to real-world problems that require a quantification of viscous incompressible flows. In various projects related to NASA missions, the authors have gained CFD expertise over many years by developing and utilizing tools especially related to viscous incompressible flows. They are looking at CFD from an engineering perspective, which is especially useful when working on real-world applications. From that point of view, CFD requires two major elements, namely methods/algorithm and engineering/physical modeling. As for the methods, CFD research has been performed with great successes. In terms of modeling/simulation, mission applications require a deeper understanding of CFD and flow physics, which has only been debated in technical conferences and to a limited scope. This monograph fills the gap by offering in-depth examples for students and engineers to get useful information on CFD for their activities. The procedural details are given with respect to particular tasks from the authors’ field of research, for example simulations of liquid propellant rocket engine subsystems, turbo-pumps and the blood circulations in the human brain as well as the design of artificial heart devices. However, those examples serve as illustrations of computational and physical challenges relevant to many other fields. Unlike other books on incompressible flow simulations, no abstract mathematics are used in this book. Assuming some basic CFD knowledge, readers can easily transfer the insights gained from specific CFD applications in engineering to their area of interest.

This book was released on 2022-09-20 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on finite element-based computational methods for solving incompressible viscous fluid flow problems shows readers how to apply operator splitting techniques to decouple complicated computational fluid dynamics problems into a sequence of relatively simpler sub-problems at each time step, such as hemispherical cavity flow, cavity flow of an Oldroyd-B viscoelastic flow, and particle interaction in an Oldroyd-B type viscoelastic fluid. Efficient and robust numerical methods for solving those resulting simpler sub-problems are introduced and discussed. Interesting computational results are presented to show the capability of methodologies addressed in the book.
