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 simulation of generalized Newtonian and Oldroyd-B fluids flow

Keslerová, Radka, Kozel, Karel

Similarity:

This work deals with the numerical solution of generalized Newtonian and Oldroyd-B fluids flow. The governing system of equations is based on the system of balance laws for mass and momentum for incompressible laminar viscous and viscoelastic fluids. Two different definition of the stress tensor are considered. For viscous case Newtonian model is used. For the viscoelastic case Oldroyd-B model is tested. Both presented models can be generalized. In this case the viscosity is defined...

Numerical modelling of viscous and viscoelastic fluids flow through the branching channel

Keslerová, Radka, Kozel, Karel

Similarity:

The aim of this paper is to describe the numerical results of numerical modelling of steady flows of laminar incompressible viscous and viscoelastic fluids. The mathematical models are Newtonian and Oldroyd-B models. Both models can be generalized by cross model in shear thinning meaning. Numerical tests are performed on three dimensional geometry, a branched channel with one entrance and two output parts. Numerical solution of the described models is based on cell-centered finite volume...

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 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...

Comparing numerical integration schemes for a car-following model with real-world data

Přikryl, Jan, Vaniš, Miroslav

Similarity:

A key element of microscopic traffic flow simulation is the so-called car-following model, describing the way in which a typical driver interacts with other vehicles on the road. This model is typically continuous and traffic micro-simulator updates its vehicle positions by a numerical integration scheme. While increasing the order of the scheme should lead to more accurate results, most micro-simulators employ the simplest Euler rule. In our contribution, inspired by [1], we will provide...

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 steady and unsteady bypass flow

Prokop, Vladimír, Kozel, Karel

Similarity:

This paper deals with a problem of numerical solution of laminar viscous incompressible stationary and nonstationary flows through a vessel with bypass. One could describe these problems by using model of the Navier-Stokes equations and find a steady solution of an unsteady system by using a multistage Runge-Kutta method together with a time dependent artificial compressibility method. Nonstationary solution is achieved from initial stationary solution by prescribing of nonstationary...
