Numerical simulation of free-surface flows with surface tension

Sváček, Petr

Similarity:

This paper focuses on the mathematical modelling and the numerical approximation of the flow of two immiscible incompressible fluids. The surface tension effects are taken into account and mixed boundary conditions are used. The weak formulation is introduced, discretized in time, and the finite element method is applied. The free surface motion is treated with the aid of the level set method. The numerical results are shown.

About the decay of surface waves on viscous fluids without surface tension

Gerhard Ströhmer (2003)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We study the decay of the motions of a viscous fluid subject to gravity without surface tension with a free boundary at the top. We show that the solutions of the linearization about the equilibrium state decay, but not exponentially in a uniform manner. We also discuss the consequences of this for the non-linear equations.

Air entrainment in transient flows in closed water pipes : A two-layer approach

Similarity:

In this paper, we first construct a model for free surface flows that takes into account the air entrainment by a system of four partial differential equations. We derive it by taking averaged values of gas and fluid velocities on the cross surface flow in the Euler equations (incompressible for the fluid and compressible for the gas). The obtained system is conditionally hyperbolic. Then, we propose a mathematical kinetic interpretation of this system to finally construct a two-layer...

Local free boundary problem for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics

Piotr Kacprzyk

Similarity:

We consider the motion of an incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (mhd) fluid in a domain bounded by a free surface. In the external domain there exists an electromagnetic field generated by some currents which keeps the mhd flow in the bounded domain. Then on the free surface transmission conditions for electromagnetic fields are imposed. In this paper we prove existence of local regular solutions by the method of successive approximations. The L₂ approach is used. This helps us to treat...

Global free boundary problem for incompressible magnetohydrodynamics

Piotr Kacprzyk

Similarity:

We consider the motion of incompressible mhd in a domain bounded a free surface. In the external domain there exists an electromagnetic field generated by some currents which keeps the mhd flow in the bounded domain. On the free surface transmission conditions for the electromagnetic fields are imposed. For sufficiently small initial velocity and vanishing external force the global existence is proved. The L₂-approach is used. This helps us to treat the transmission conditions. ...

The nappe profile of a free overfall

Enrico Marchi (1992)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

The phenomenon of the free overfall at the sharp drop of a channel bed has been deeply investigated experimentally since the pioneering work of Rouse (1933). Its behaviour is well known at least in the usual case of a wide rectangular channel. However, no complete theoretical solution has yet been obtained. Assuming the steady flow to be two-dimensional, irrotational and frictionless, an analytical solution for the flow field is obtained accounting for the presence of two free boundaries....

Asymptotic estimates for a perturbation of the linearization of an equation for compressible viscous fluid flow

Gerhard Ströhmer (2008)

Studia Mathematica

Similarity:

We prove a priori estimates for a linear system of partial differential equations originating from the equations for the flow of a barotropic compressible viscous fluid under the influence of the gravity it generates. These estimates will be used in a forthcoming paper to prove the nonlinear stability of the motionless, spherically symmetric equilibrium states of barotropic, self-gravitating viscous fluids with respect to perturbations of zero total angular momentum. These equilibrium...
