Numerical analysis of Eulerian multi-fluid models in the context of kinetic formulations for dilute evaporating sprays

Frédérique Laurent (2006)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

The purpose of this article is the analysis and the development of Eulerian multi-fluid models to describe the evolution of the mass density of evaporating liquid sprays. First, the classical multi-fluid model developed in [Laurent and Massot, Combust. Theor. Model.5 (2001) 537–572] is analyzed in the framework of an unsteady configuration without dynamical nor heating effects, where the evaporation process is isolated, since it is a key issue. The classical multi-fluid method consists then in...

Numerical aspects of the identification of thermal characteristics using the hot-wire method

Vala, Jiří (2013)

Programs and Algorithms of Numerical Mathematics

The hot-wire method, based on the recording of the temperature development in time in a testing sample, supplied by a probe with its own thermal source, is useful to evaluate the thermal conductivity of materials under extremal loads, in particular in refractory brickworks. The formulae in the technical standards come from the analytical solution of the non-stationary equation of heat conduction in cylindric (finally only polar) coordinates for a simplified formulation of boundary conditions, neglecting...

Numerical methods for phase transition problems

Claudio Verdi (1998)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

Nel presente articolo si illustrano alcuni dei principali metodi numerici per l'approssimazione di modelli matematici legati ai fenomeni di transizione di fase. Per semplificare e contenere l'esposizione ci siamo limitati a discutere con un certo dettaglio i metodi più recenti, presentandoli nel caso di problemi modello, quali il classico problema di Stefan e l'evoluzione di superficie per curvatura media, solo accennando alle applicazioni e modelli più generali.

Numerical resolution of an “unbalanced” mass transport problem

Jean-David Benamou (2003)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We introduce a modification of the Monge–Kantorovitch problem of exponent 2 which accommodates non balanced initial and final densities. The augmented lagrangian numerical method introduced in [6] is adapted to this “unbalanced” problem. We illustrate the usability of this method on an idealized error estimation problem in meteorology.

Numerical simulation of a point-source initiated flame ball with heat losses

Jacques Audounet, Jean-Michel Roquejoffre, Hélène Rouzaud (2002)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

This article is devoted to the numerical study of a flame ball model, derived by Joulin, which obeys to a singular integro-differential equation. The numerical scheme that we analyze here, is based upon a one step method, and we are interested in its long-time behaviour. We recover the same dynamics as in the continuous case: quenching, or stabilization of the flame, depending on heat losses, and an energy input parameter.

On a Caginalp phase-field system with a logarithmic nonlinearity

Charbel Wehbe (2015)

Applications of Mathematics

We consider a phase field system based on the Maxwell Cattaneo heat conduction law, with a logarithmic nonlinearity, associated with Dirichlet boundary conditions. In particular, we prove, in one and two space dimensions, the existence of a solution which is strictly separated from the singularities of the nonlinear term and that the problem possesses a finite-dimensional global attractor in terms of exponential attractors.

On a conserved Penrose-Fife type system

Gianni Gilardi, Andrea Marson (2005)

Applications of Mathematics

We deal with a class of Penrose-Fife type phase field models for phase transitions, where the phase dynamics is ruled by a Cahn-Hilliard type equation. Suitable assumptions on the behaviour of the heat flux as the absolute temperature tends to zero and to + are considered. An existence result is obtained by a double approximation procedure and compactness methods. Moreover, uniqueness and regularity results are proved as well.

On a diphasic low Mach number system

Stéphane Dellacherie (2005)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis - Modélisation Mathématique et Analyse Numérique

We propose a Diphasic Low Mach Number (DLMN) system for the modelling of diphasic flows without phase change at low Mach number, system which is an extension of the system proposed by Majda in [Center of Pure and Applied Mathematics, Berkeley, report No. 112] and [Combust. Sci. Tech. 42 (1985) 185–205] for low Mach number combustion problems. This system is written for a priori any equations of state. Under minimal thermodynamic hypothesis which are satisfied by a large class of generalized van...

On a mathematical model for the crystallization of polymers

Maria Pia Gualdani (2003)

Bollettino dell'Unione Matematica Italiana

We consider a mathematical model proposed in [1] for the cristallization of polymers, describing the evolution of temperature, crystalline volume fraction, number and average size of crystals. The model includes a constraint W e q on the crystal volume fraction. Essentially, the model is a system of both second order and first order evolutionary partial differential equations with nonlinear terms which are Lipschitz continuous, as in [1], or Hölder continuous, as in [3]. The main novelty here is the...

On a non-stationary free boundary transmission problem with continuous extraction and convection, arising in industrial processes

Bui Ton, Grzegorz Łukaszewicz (1992)

Banach Center Publications

The existence of a weak solution of a non-stationary free boundary transmission problem arising in the production of industrial materials is established. The process is governed by a coupled system involving the Navier--Stokes equations and a non-linear heat equation. The stationary case was studied in [7].
