Tile method uses the three-node triangular element with equal-order interpolation functions for all variables of tile velocity components and pressure. The main advantage of the combined nlethod is that it inlproves the sohltion accuracy by coupling an error estinla- tion procedure to an adaptive meshing technique that generates small elements in regions with a large change ill sohmtion gradients, mid at the same time, larger elements in the other regions. The performance of the combined procedure is evaluated by analyzing one test case of the flow past a cylinder, for their transient and steady-state flow behaviors.展开更多

The method uses a simple Cartesian mesh to simulate flows past immersed complicated bodies. With the Chapman-Enskog expansion analysis, a transform is performed between the Navier-Stokes and lattice Boltzmann equations (LBEs). The LBFS is used to discretize the macroscopic differential equations with a finite volume method and evaluate the interface fluxes through local reconstruction of the lattice Boltzmann solution. The immersed boundary technique is used to correct the intermediate velocity around the solid boundary to satisfy the no-slip boundary condition. Agreement of simulation results with the data found in the literature shows reliability of the proposed method in simulating laminar flows on a Cartesian mesh.展开更多

An incremental pressure fractional step method is adopted to handle the velocity-pressure coupling. The velocity and the pressure are collocated at the node of the vertex-centered control volume which is formed by join- ing the centroid of cells sharing the common vertex. For the temporal integration of the momentum equations, an im- plicit second-order scheme is utilized to enhance the com- putational stability and eliminate the time step limit due to the diffusion term. The momentum equations are discretized by the vertex-centered finite volume method (FVM) and the pressure Poisson equation is solved by the Galerkin finite el- ement method (FEM). The momentum interpolation is used to damp out the spurious pressure wiggles. The test case with analytical solutions demonstrates second-order accuracy of the current hybrid scheme in time and space for both veloc- ity and pressure. The classic test cases, the lid-driven cavity flow, the skew cavity flow and the backward-facing step flow, show that numerical results are in good agreement with the published benchmark solutions.展开更多

The idea is similar to the influence matrix to solve the lack of vorticity boundary conditions. For any given boundary condition of the vorticity, the coupled vorticity-stream function formulation is solved. Then solve the governing equations with the correction boundary conditions to improve the solution. These equations are numerically solved by Fourier series truncation and finite difference method. The two numerical techniques are employed to treat the non-linear terms. The first method for small Reynolds number R equals 0-50 has the same results as that in M. Anwar and S.C.R. Dennis' report. The second one for R greater than 50 obtains the reliable results. (Author abstract) 4 Refs.展开更多

文摘This paper presents a new method to numerically solve the viscous incompress- ible steady flow in a channel with non-uniform section by use of the equations of total pressure and velocity.This method is to solve the equations of total pressure and velocity in the non-or- thogonai curvilinear mesh.The advantages of this method is discussed.
文摘A Fourier pseudospectral-finite difference scheme is proposed for unsteady Navier-Stokes equation. It is showed that the numerical solution keeps semi-discrete conservation. The strict error estimation is established. The numerical results are presented.
文摘Correction methods for the steady semi-periodic motion of incompressible fluid are investigated. The idea is similar to the influence matrix to solve the lack of vorticity boundary conditions. For any given boundary condition of the vorticity, the coupled vorticity-stream function formulation is solved. Then solve the governing equations with the correction boundary conditions to improve the solution. These equations are numerically solved by Fourier series truncation and finite difference method. The two numerical techniques are employed to treat the non-linear terms. The first method for small Reynolds number R equals 0-50 has the same results as that in M. Anwar and S.C.R. Dennis' report. The second one for R greater than 50 obtains the reliable results. (Author abstract) 4 Refs.
