A fictitious domain method for the numerical two-dimensional simulation of potential flows past sails

Alfredo Bermúdez, Rodolfo Rodríguez, María Luisa Seoane (2011)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

This paper deals with the mathematical and numerical analysis of a simplified two-dimensional model for the interaction between the wind and a sail. The wind is modeled as a steady irrotational plane flow past the sail, satisfying the Kutta-Joukowski condition. This condition guarantees that the flow is not singular at the trailing edge of the sail. Although for the present analysis the position of the sail is taken as data, the final aim of this research is to develop tools to compute...

Numerical solution of Newtonian flow in bypass and non-Newtonian flow in branching channels

Keslerová, R., Kozel, K., Prokop, V.

Similarity:

This paper deals with the numerical solution of Newtonian and non-Newtonian flows. The flows are supposed to be laminar, viscous, incompressible and steady. The model used for non-Newtonian fluids is a variant of the power-law. Governing equations in this model are incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. For numerical solution we could use artificial compressibility method with three stage Runge-Kutta method and finite volume method in cell centered formulation for discretization of...

The results of a workshop concerning the numerical simulation of the liquid flow around a hydrofoil in non-cavitating and cavitating conditions are presented. This workshop was part of the conference “Mathematical and Numerical aspects of Low Mach Number Flows” (2004) and was aimed to investigate the capabilities of different compressible flow solvers for the low Mach number regime and for flows in which incompressible and supersonic regions are simultaneously present. Different physical...

Steady and unsteady 2D numerical solution of generalized Newtonian fluids flow

Keslerová, Radka, Kozel, Karel

Similarity:

This article presents the numerical solution of laminar incompressible viscous flow in a branching channel for generalized Newtonian fluids. The governing system of equations is based on the system of balance laws for mass and momentum. The generalized Newtonian fluids differ through choice of a viscosity function. A power-law model with different values of power-law index is used. Numerical solution of the described models is based on cell-centered finite volume method using explicit...

Numerical solution of 2D and 3D incompressible laminar flows through a branching channel

Keslerová, Radka, Kozel, Karel

Similarity:

In this paper, we are concerned with the numerical solution of 2D/3D flows through a branching channel where viscous incompressible laminar fluid flow is considered. The mathematical model in this case can be described by the system of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and the continuity equation. In order to obtain the steady state solution the artificial compressibility method is applied. The finite volume method is used for spatial discretization. The arising system of ordinary...

Numerical Modeling of the Stream Dynamics for River Channels with Complex Spatial Configuration

V. A. Shlychkov (2009)

Mathematical Modelling of Natural Phenomena

Similarity:

Mathematical modeling provides a particularly important tool for studying the stream runoff formation processes, and its role is enhanced in the case of a sparse, obsolete monitoring network characteristic of most regions of Siberia. When analyzing spatio-temporal regularities of the water and sediment runoff in river systems, serious problems are caused by lack of the basic hydrological model capable of handling real-time data of hydrological measurements.
Calculations of unsteady...
