Book Vorticity Stream Function Formulation of Compressible and Incompressible Turbulent Internal Flows

Download or read book Vorticity Stream Function Formulation of Compressible and Incompressible Turbulent Internal Flows written by and published by . This book was released on 1979 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ducted turbulent flows with varying wall shapes are formulated with the Navier-Stokes equations written in terms of vorticity and stream function. Coordinate transformation and stretching functions are used to provide adequate resolution throughout the whole flow field. The turbulent characteristics of the flow are modeled by a low Reynolds number, two-equation k-epsilon model which is applicable in the wall sublayer as well as in the region away from the wall. In addition to the conventional Poisson-type pressure equation, a new pressure equation with both first- and second-order terms was derived from the momentum equations. A vector path function is included in the pressure equation to improve convergence and accuracy. Applications to a model wind tunnel diffuser and a sudden expansion diffuser are discussed. Good agreement with available experimental data is observed in terms of the pressure coefficient and the length of the recirculation region. (Author).

Book Numerical Simulation of Compressible Flow Using a Velocity vorticity pressure Formulation

Download or read book Numerical Simulation of Compressible Flow Using a Velocity vorticity pressure Formulation written by Ben Chacon and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fundamental equations for compressible flow are solved using a velocity - pressure - vorticity formulation producing a solution that satisfies continuity and vorticity definitions up to machine accuracy. Chapter 1 reviews many algorithms used to solve this problem. Unlike those methods, no pressure - velocity relation or artificial compressibility is assumed in the present formulation, so the equations for kinematics, pressure and momentum are decoupled independent building blocks in the iterative process. As a consequence, the resulting modular algorithm can be used directly for compressible or incompressible flows, contrasting with other current techniques. Moreover the present formulation also applies to two-dimensional and three-dimensional, structured and unstructured grids without any changes, even though only the two-dimensional version was implemented. In Chapter 2, the original formulation is described. A functional minimization technique is used to discretize the kinematics equations, mimicking continuous methods used in the field of functional analysis and providing a common framework to understand, model and implement the solution algorithm. Suitable preconditioning and radial interpolation techniques are employed to balance precision and computational speed. The Poisson equation for pressure is solved similarly by minimizing a suitable functional. The momentum equations are then solved using a finite volume approach adding a controlled amount of artificial viscosity according to mesh size and Reynolds number, resulting in a stable calculation. The vorticity is then obtained as the curl of the velocity. Temperature is similarly computed from the energy equation in an outer loop. Suitable adjustments to pressure and temperature enable the ideal gas equation to fit both the compressible and incompressible paradigmsSubsequent chapters deal with validation, applying the computer efficient implementation of the algorithm to a variety of well documented aerodynamic benchmark problems. Examples include compressible and incompressible flow, steady and unsteady problems and flow over cylinders and airfoils over a variety of Reynolds and subsonic Mach numbers.

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.

Book DNS of Wall Bounded Turbulent Flows

Download or read book DNS of Wall Bounded Turbulent Flows written by Tapan K. Sengupta and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-06-07 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book highlights by careful documentation of developments what led to tracking the growth of deterministic disturbances inside the shear layer from receptivity to fully developed turbulent flow stages. Associated theoretical and numerical developments are addressed from basic level so that an uninitiated reader can also follow the materials which lead to the solution of a long-standing problem. Solving Navier-Stokes equation by direct numerical simulation (DNS) from the first principle has been considered as one of the most challenging problems of understanding what causes transition to turbulence. Therefore, this book is a very useful addition to advanced CFD and advanced fluid mechanics courses.
