Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collective behavior and self-organization are ubiquitous mechanisms in nature. From animate creatures, such as swarming insects, flocking birds and schooling fish, to inanimate natural processes such as sedimentation and cloud formation, these phenomena arouse the curiosity of physicists and engineers alike. Early studies using analytical models and experiments in the low Reynolds number helped shed the light on the intricacies of particle interactions, as in clouds or arrays of spheres. In the intermediate Reynolds number regime however, the unsteadiness introduced by the fluid inertia, coupled to the object dynamics, add to the complexity of the problem. Numerical methods become then the tool par excellence to solve for these dynamics. The goal of this thesis is to lay out the foundations for a better understanding of particle interactions in fluids. Namely, we investigate the two-dimensional dynamics of interacting particles in a viscous fluid, in the intermediate Reynolds number range. We develop a direct numerical scheme based on the Immersed Interface Method to simulate the coupling of the dynamics of freely moving objects with the surrounding fluid. The method is used to study the dynamics of arrays of cylinders settling under gravity, and how these dynamics depend on the number of particles and their initial separation. We then provide a simple force law model which accounts for the initial repulsive force experienced by any two adjacent cylinders, at close range. When the particle density is high, collisions are almost inevitable. To treat close range interactions and resolve the interstitial flow in the narrowing gap between particles or between a particle and a wall, we further extend the immersed interface method to take into account the lubrication effects. We solve Reynolds equations and use the analytical solution in the lubrication region. Doing so enables us to avoid ad hoc methods where an artificial repulsive force is added or two-dimensional collision equations are used with a modified coefficient of restitution.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of multiphase flows has grown by leaps and bounds in the last thirty years and is now regarded as a major discipline. Engineering applications, products and processes with particles, bubbles and drops have consistently grown in number and importance. An increasing number of conferences, scientific fora and archived journals are dedicated to the dissemination of information on flow, heat and mass transfer of fluids with particles, bubbles and drops. Numerical computations and "thought experiments" have supplemented most physical experiments and a great deal of the product design and testing processes. The literature on computational fluid dynamics with particles, bubbles and drops has grown at an exponential rate, giving rise to new results, theories and better understanding of the transport processes with particles, bubbles and drops. This book captures and summarizes all these advances in a unified, succinct and pedagogical way.

Book Massive Distributed Computational Algorithm for Simulating Many body Hydrodynamic Interactions

Download or read book Massive Distributed Computational Algorithm for Simulating Many body Hydrodynamic Interactions written by Yu Su and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Complex fluids comprise two phases of materials: a solvent phase and a non-continuum phase such as microscopic particles or polymers. Suspensions of colloids -- microscopic particles small enough to undergo Brownian motion -- are an important example and model system for understanding general complex fluids. The particles are distributed in the suspending solvent, forming a "microstructure". The formulation of detailed models for the dynamics of condensed soft matter including colloidal suspensions and other complex fluids requires accurate description of the physical forces between microstructural constituents. In dilute suspensions, pair-level interactions are sufficient to capture hydrodynamic, interparticle, and thermodynamic forces. In dense suspensions, many-body interactions must be considered. Prior analytical approaches to capturing such interactions such as mean-field approaches replace detailed interactions with averaged approximations. However, long-range coupling and effects of concentration on local structure, which may play an important role in e.g. phase transitions, are smeared out in such approaches. An alternative to such approximations is the detailed modeling of hydrodynamic interactions utilizing precise couplings between moments of the hydrodynamic traction on a suspended particle and the motion of that or other suspended particles. For two isolated spheres, a set of these functions was calculated by Jeffrey and Onishi, Kim and Karrila, and Jeffrey. Along with pioneering work by Batchelor and Green, these are the touchstone for low-Reynolds-number hydrodynamic interactions and have been applied directly in the solution of many important problems related to the dynamics of dilute colloidal dispersions. The Reynolds number, Re, is the dimensionless strength of flow inertia relative to viscous stress, $Re = \rho U L / \eta$, where $\rho$ is the fluid density, $\eta$ is the fluid viscosity, $U$ is the characteristic speed of the flow, and $L$ is the characteristic length scale such as channel width, particle size, or a surface dimension. The overall goal of this dissertation is development of new theoretical and computational models for many-body interactions in concentrated colloidal suspensions. In the first part of the dissertation, we extend the theoretical framework of the pair-level mobility functions to concentrated systems, utilizing a new stochastic sampling technique we developed in order to rapidly calculate an analogous set of mobility functions describing the hydrodynamic interactions between two hard spheres immersed in a suspension of arbitrary concentration. This was carried out utilizing Accelerated Stokesian Dynamics simulations. These mobility functions provide precise, radially dependent couplings of hydrodynamic traction moments to particle velocity derivatives, for arbitrary colloid volume fraction $\phi=4\pi\eta a^3/n$, where $\eta$ is the suspending solvent viscosity, $a$ is the hydrodynamic particle radius, and $n=N/V$ is the number density of colloids in the volume $V$ of solvent. The most significant outcome of this work was to show that hydrodynamic entrainment of one particle by the disturbance flow created by a forced particle decays algebraically just as slowly as a dilute suspension...
