The model validation has been performed for a number of flows and its main results are given in the paper. The turbulent mixing of flow with shear in the tangential velocity component is discussed in details. An analytical solution to the system of ordinary differential equations of the k-ε model of turbulent mixing has been found for the self-similar regime of flow. The model coefficients were chosen using simulation results for some simplest turbulent flows. The solution can be used for the verification of codes. The numerical simulation of the problem has been performed by the 2D code EGAK using this model. A good agreement of the numerical simulation results with the self-similar solution, 3D DNS results and known experimental data has been achieved. This allows stating that the k-ε model constants chosen by the authors are acceptable for the considered flow.展开更多

By rates of solutions to the three-dimensional combining the LP-Lq estimate for the linearized equations and an elaborate energy method, the convergence rates are obtained in various norms for the solution to the equilibrium state in the whole space when the initial perturbation of the equilibrium state is small in the H3-framework. More precisely, the optimal convergence rates of the solutions and their first-order derivatives in the L2-norm are obtained when the LP-norm of the perturbation is bounded for some p ε [1, 6).展开更多

With the finite volumemethod and a body-fitted coordinate system, the discretised equations were solved by the SIMPLESTalgorithm. The numerical result of a cut-off valve with curved inlet shows the flow characteristicsand the main cause of energy loss when fluid flows through a valve. And then, the boundaries ofvalve were modified in order to reduce the energy loss. The computational results of modified valveshow that the numerical value of turbulent kinetic energy is lower, and that the modified design ofthe 3-D valve boundaries is much better. The analysis of the result also shows that RNG k-εturbulence model can successfully be used to predict the 3-D turbulent separated flows and thesecondary flow inside valve pipes.展开更多

A Computational Fluid Dynamics(CFD) approach using the steady-state, Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes(RANS) equations with the standard k-ε turbulence model within control volumes of non-uniform cuboid shapes has been employed. Dispersion field is computed by solving an unsteady transport equation of passive scalar. Another approach based on Gaussian plume model is used to correct the turbulent Schmidt number of tracer, in order to improve the dispersion simulation. The experimental data from a wind tunnel under neutral conditions are used to validate the numerical results of velocity, turbulence, and dispersion fields. The numerical results show a reasonable agreement with the wind tunnel data. The deviation of concentration between the simulation with corrected turbulent Schmidt number and the wind tunnel experiments may arise from 1) imperfect point sources, 2) heterogeneous turbulent difusivity, and 3) the constant turbulent Schmidt assumption used in the model.展开更多
