Download or read book Finite Element Techniques for Fluid Flow written by J. J. Connor and published by Newnes. This book was released on 2013-09-11 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finite Element Techniques for Fluid Flow describes the advances in the applications of finite element techniques to fluid mechanics. Topics covered range from weighted residual and variational methods to interpolation functions, inviscid fluids, and flow through porous media. The basic principles and governing equations of fluid mechanics as well as problems related to dispersion and shallow water circulation are also discussed. This text is comprised of nine chapters; the first of which explains some basic definitions and properties as well as the basic principles of weighted residual and variational methods. The reader is then introduced to the simple finite element concepts and models, and gradually to more complex applications. The chapters that follow focus on the governing equations of fluid flow, the solutions to potential type problems, and viscous flow problems in porous media. The solutions to more specialized problems are also presented. This book also considers how circulation problems can be tackled using finite elements, presents a solution to the mass transfer equation, and concludes with an explanation of how to solve general transient incompressible flows. This source will be of use to engineers, applied mathematicians, physicists, self-taught students, and research workers.

Book excerpt: The finite element method is applied to several simple cases of steady flow of a perfect, incompressible fluid. It is shown that the finite element representation accurately reflects the behavior of the classical flow equations. Finite elements form the basis for a versatile analysis procedure applicable to problems in several different fields. The earliest applications were to problems in structural mechanics. In recent years, nonstructural problems also have been treated by this method. The finite element method represents an approximate procedure for satisfying the problem in terms of its variational formulation. In structural mechanics this is generally accomplished by determining displacement fields based on satisfying the minimum potential energy theorem. Consequently, finite elements furnish a useful alternative scheme for applying the well-known Ritz method. For nonstructural problems, it is essential that the appropriate variational expressions be known beforehand. For the flow problems taken up in this paper, such expressions are well known. The governing matrix equation for the assemblage of elements is based on the properties derived for a single typical element. These properties, in turn, depend on assuming a mathematical form for the primary unknown of the problem and then satisfying the variational principle. For the elasticity problem, the unknowns are the displacements, while for the perfect incompressible fluid, either the velocity potential or the stream function may be used. Of great interest is that structural and nonstructural elements may often be identical in shape and may be represented by similar mathematical expressions. By way of illustration, the problems taken up in this paper were solved using the new ASTRA structural program developed at The Boeing Company. Finally, it should be pointed out that the major difference between the elasticity and fluid flow problems lies in the boundary conditions to be satisfied.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Designed for a one-semester course in Finite Element Method, this compact and well-organized text presents FEM as a tool to find approximate solutions to differential equations. This provides the student a better perspective on the technique and its wide range of applications. This approach reflects the current trend as the present-day applications range from structures to biomechanics to electromagnetics, unlike in conventional texts that view FEM primarily as an extension of matrix methods of structural analysis. After an introduction and a review of mathematical preliminaries, the book gives a detailed discussion on FEM as a technique for solving differential equations and variational formulation of FEM. This is followed by a lucid presentation of one-dimensional and two-dimensional finite elements and finite element formulation for dynamics. The book concludes with some case studies that focus on industrial problems and Appendices that include mini-project topics based on near-real-life problems. Postgraduate/Senior undergraduate students of civil, mechanical and aeronautical engineering will find this text extremely useful; it will also appeal to the practising engineers and the teaching community.
