Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To investigate the process of energy transfer from large eddies to smaller ones at high Reynolds Numbers, a finite difference method is used to obtain the periodic solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in three dimensions when the initial motion is assumed to be v sub 1 = cos x sin y sin z, v sub 2 = -sin x cos y sin z, v sub 3 = 0. A numerical technique for the solution of Poisson's equation for the three dimensional problem is described and used for the solution of the problem. Mean kinetic energy and mean square vorticity are calculated and it is found that the numerical method provides estimates of these quantities up to a time of the order of 2. The structure of the turbulent flow is investigated by a study of the velocity correlation function R sub ij. (Author).

This book was released on 2005 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This dissertation is on a numerical study in primitive variables of three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations and energy equation in an annular geometry. A fast direct method is developed to solve the Poisson equation for pressure with Neumann boundary conditions in radial and axial directions, and periodic boundary conditions in azimuthal direction. The velocities and temperature are solved using Douglas-Gunn ADI method, which makes use of an implicit Crank-Nicholson scheme to discretize the governing equations. The numerical method developed in this study, after being validated by comparing the numerical solutions to analytical known solutions and results published in the literature, is then used to study thermocapillary convection, Reyleigh-Benard convection, and Taylor-Couette flow. In the thermocapillary convection in an annulus with heated inner cylinder, the free surface was assumed to be flat. The resulting flow is two-dimensional and axisymmetric. The flow becomes three-dimensional when angular dependent temperature boundary condition is applied on the inner cylinder. Numerical solution of Rayleigh-Benard convection in a shallow annular disk results in two-dimensional axisymmetric flow when the Rayleigh number is above a critical value. A layer of concentric rolls are formed encircling the inner cylinder. The axisymmetricity and concentricity are destroyed by an initial temperature disturbance at a single grid point, or a non-uniform boundary condition on the bottom. Numerical solution of Taylor-Couette flow results in a series of axisymmetric toroidal rolls which encircle the inner cylinder between the cylinders and are stacked in the axial direction when Taylor number exceeds a critical value. As Taylor number further increases, the flow becomes non-axisymmetric and azimuthal waves are formed on the resulting wavy vortex flow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition, like the first, attempts to arrive as simply as possible at some central problems in the Navier-Stokes equations in the following areas: existence, uniqueness, and regularity of solutions in space dimensions two and three; large time behavior of solutions and attractors; and numerical analysis of the Navier-Stokes equations. Since publication of the first edition of these lectures in 1983, there has been extensive research in the area of inertial manifolds for Navier-Stokes equations. These developments are addressed in a new section devoted entirely to inertial manifolds. Inertial manifolds were first introduced under this name in 1985 and, since then, have been systematically studied for partial differential equations of the Navier-Stokes type. Inertial manifolds are a global version of central manifolds. When they exist they encompass the complete dynamics of a system, reducing the dynamics of an infinite system to that of a smooth, finite-dimensional one called the inertial system. Although the theory of inertial manifolds for Navier-Stokes equations is not complete at this time, there is already a very interesting and significant set of results which deserves to be known, in the hope that it will stimulate further research in this area. These results are reported in this edition.

This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most important applications of finite difference lies in the field of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). In particular, the solution to the Navier-Stokes equation grants us insight into the behavior of many physical systems. The 2-D and 3-D incompressible Navier-Stokes equation has been studied extensively due to its analogous nature to many practical applications, and several numerical schemes have been developed to provide solutions dedicated to different environmental conditions (such as different Reynolds numbers). This research also covers the assignment of boundary conditions, starting with the simple case of driven cavity flow problem. In addition, several parts of the equations are given implicitly, which requires efficient ways of solving large systems of equations.We also considered numerical solution methods for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations discretized on staggered grids in general coordinates. Numerical experiments are carried out on a vector computer. Robustness and efficiency of these methods are studied. It appears that good methods result from suitable combinations of multigrid methods.Numerically solving the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations is known to be time-consuming and expensive; hence this research presents some MATLAB codes for obtaining numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for incompressible flow through flow cavities, using method of lines, in three-dimensional space (3-D). The code treats the laminar flow over a two-dimensional backward-facing step, and the results of the computations over the backward-facing step are in excellent agreement with experimental results.

This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The GAMM-Commi ttee for Numerical Methods in Fluid Mechanics (GAMM-Fachausschuss für Numerische Methoden in der Strömungsmechanik) has sponsored the organization of a GAMM Workshop dedicated to the numerical simulation of three dimensional incompressible unsteady viscous laminar flows to test Navier-Stokes solvers. The Workshop was held in Paris from June 12th to June 14th, 1991 at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Arts et Metiers. Two test problems were set up. The first one is the flow in a driven-lid parallelepipedic cavity at Re = 3200 . The second problem is a flow around a prolate spheroid at incidence. These problems are challenging as fully transient solutions are expected to show up. The difficulties for meaningful calculations come from both space and temporal discretizations which have to be sufficiently accurate to resol ve detailed structures like Taylor-Görtler-like vortices and the appropriate time development. Several research teams from academia and industry tackled the tests using different formulations (veloci ty-pressure, vortici ty velocity), different numerical methods (finite differences, finite volumes, finite elements), various solution algorithms (splitting, coupled ...), various solvers (direct, iterative, semi-iterative) with preconditioners or other numerical speed-up procedures. The results show some scatter and achieve different levels of efficiency. The Workshop was attended by about 25 scientists and drove much interaction between the participants. The contributions in these proceedings are presented in alphabetical order according to the first author, first for the cavi ty problem and then for the prolate spheroid problem. No definite conclusions about benchmark solutions can be drawn.

This book was released on 1973 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two- and three-dimensional unsteady Navier-Stokes equations are solved numerically for the flow field about an impulsively started flat plate. In attempting to obtain an exact time dependent solution, several significant results were observed. First, with regard to the formulation of the differential equations themselves, it appears that Poisson's equation for the pressure field is a fundamental equation in as much as it allows us to solve for pressure moat exactly at any given time. Secondly, the difference equations must be carefully and consistently formulated. In this research, a non-uniform lateral grid, a unique interpretation of the continuity equation, and leap frog integration in time proved to be valuable techniques in obtaining an exact solution.

Download or read book Research on Numerical Algorithms for the Three Dimensional Navier Stokes Equations I Accuracy Convergence Efficiency written by A. J. Baker and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 61 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research is to develop a highly accurate and efficient numerical solution algorithm for the non-linear three- dimensional Navier-Stokes equations for aerodynamics applications. A candidate algorithm has been derived employing finite element interpolation theory, the non-linear extension of quasi-variational principles, and the concept of tensor product bases. The resultant solution statement is rendered soluable using an implicit integration algorithm, and the replacement of the standard Jacobian of a Newton iteration algorithm with a tensor matrix product form. A linearized stability analysis indicates the basic algorithm is spatially fourth-order accurate in its most elementary embodiment. The control of an added dissipation mechanism can elevate this to sixth order, but numerical experimentation indicates the resultant artificial diffusion is unacceptably large. By the same measure, this additional accuracy is intrinsic to the quadratic element embodiment of the algorithm with freedom from artificial diffusion. The results of several numerical experiments for single- and multi-dimensional convection-dominated test problems confirms the basic viability of this algorithm and its tensor produce formulation. The latter is of paramount importance in rendering the algorithm nominally as efficient as familiar lower-order accurate finite difference formulations. (Author).

This book was released on 1981 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The objective of this research project is to derive and evaluate versatile, accurate and efficient numerical algorithms for solution of aerodynamic flowfields at large Reynolds number. The concept of a dissipative finite element algorithm has been refined and extended to solution of a complete equation set in aerodynamics. The resultant numerical results are highly encouraging with respect to shock resolution and overall performance, utilizing both a linear quadratic finite element embodiment of the theory. The theoretical formulational statement of the algorithm has been extended to a multi-dimensional description in generalized coordinates. The key efficiency feature is identification of the tensor matrix resolution of the Jacobian of the Newton algorithm for this statement. The concept of application of the continuity equation solution, as a differential constraint on the momentum equation algorithm, has been validated. The formulation is directly useful for viscous marching procedures, and with some modifications could be equally useful for a low Mach number Navier - Stokes solution algorithm. (Author).

This book was released on 2018-06-30 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Supersonic flows over a sharp and a flat-faced blunt fin mounted on a flat plate are simulated numerically. Several basic issues involved in the resultant three-dimensional steady flow separation are studied. Using the same number of grid points, different grid spacings are employed to investigate the effects of a grid resolution on the origin of the line of separation. Various shock strengths are used to study the so-called separated and unseparated boundary layer and to establish the existence or absence of secondary separation. The length of separation ahead of the flat-faced blunt fin, bifurcation of a horseshoe vortex, and the accessibility of a closed-type separation are investigated. The usual interpretation of the flow field from previous studies and new interpretations arising from the present simulation are discussed. Hung, Ching-Mao Ames Research Center ...
