Abstract In this paper, we introduce the incompressible discrete Maxwellian equilibrium distribution function and external forces into the two-stage third-order Discrete Unified Gas-Kinetic Scheme (DUGKS) for simulating low-speed incompressible turbulent flows with forcing term. The Wall-Adapting Local Eddy-viscosity (WALE) and Vreman sub-grid models for Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of wall-bounded turbulent flows are coupled within the present framework. In order to simulate the three-dimensional turbulent flows associated with great computational cost, a parallel implementation strategy for the present framework is developed, and is validated by three canonical wall-bounded turbulent flows, viz., the fully developed turbulent channel flow at a friction Reynolds number (Re) about 180, the turbulent plane Couette flow at a friction Re number about 93 and three-dimensional lid-driven cubical cavity flow at a Re number of 12000. The turbulence statistics are computed by the present approach with both WALE and Vreman models, and their predictions match precisely with each other. Especially, the predicted flow physics of three-dimensional lid-driven cavity are consistent with the description from abundant literatures. While, they have small discrepancies in comparison to the Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) due to the relatively low grid resolution. The present numerical results verify that the present two-stage third-order DUGKS-based LES method is capable for simulating inhomogeneous wall-bounded turbulent flows and getting reliable results with relatively coarse grids.

AbstractIn this paper, we introduce the discrete Maxwellian equilibrium distribution function for incompressible flow and force term into the two-stage third-order Discrete Unified Gas-Kinetic Scheme (DUGKS) for simulating low-speed turbulent flows. The Wall-Adapting Local Eddy-viscosity (WALE) and Vreman sub-grid models for Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) of turbulent flows are coupled within the present framework. Meanwhile, the implicit LES are also presented to verify the effect of LES models. A parallel implementation strategy for the present framework is developed, and three canonical wall-bounded turbulent flow cases are investigated, including the fully developed turbulent channel flow at a friction Reynolds number (Re) about 180, the turbulent plane Couette flow at a friction Re number about 93 and lid-driven cubical cavity flow at a Re number of 12000. The turbulence statistics, including mean velocity, the r.m.s. fluctuations velocity, Reynolds stress, etc. are computed by the present approach. Their predictions match precisely with each other, and they are both in reasonable agreement with the benchmark data of DNS. Especially, the predicted flow physics of three-dimensional lid-driven cavity flow are consistent with the description from abundant literature. The present numerical results verify that the present two-stage third-order DUGKS-based LES method is capable for simulating inhomogeneous wall-bounded turbulent flows and getting reliable results with relatively coarse grids.

The Galerkin Finite Element Method (GFEM) with 8- and 27-node hexahedrons elements is used for solving diffusion and transient three-dimensional reaction-diffusion with singularities. Besides analyzing the results from the primary variable (temperature), the finite element approximations were used to find the derivative of the temperature in all three directions. This technique does not provide an order of accuracy compatible with the one found in the temperature solution; thereto, a calculation from the third order finite differences is proposed here, which provide the best results, as demonstrated by the first two applications proposed in this paper. Lastly, the presentation and the discussion of a real application with two cases of boundary conditions with singularities are proposed.

In this paper, a new numerical algorithm is introduced to solve the Blasius equation, which is a third-order nonlinear ordinary differential equation arising in the problem of two-dimensional steady state laminar viscous flow over a semi-infinite flat plate. The proposed approach is based on the first kind of Bessel functions collocation method. The first kind of Bessel function is an infinite series, defined on ℝ and is convergent for any x ∊ℝ. In this work, we solve the problem on semi-infinite domain without any domain truncation, variable transformation basis functions or transformation of the domain of the problem to a finite domain. This method reduces the solution of a nonlinear problem to the solution of a system of nonlinear algebraic equations. To illustrate the reliability of this method, we compare the numerical results of the present method with some well-known results in order to show the applicability and efficiency of our method.

Compressor Rotor

The effects of circumferential distortions in inlet total pressure on the flow field in a low-aspect-ratio, high-speed, high-pressure-ratio, transonic compressor rotor are investigated in this paper. The flow field was studied experimentally and numerically with and without inlet total pressure distortion. Total pressure distortion was created by screens mounted upstream from the rotor inlet. Circumferential distortions of 8 periods per revolution were investigated at two different rotor speeds. The unsteady blade surface pressures were measured with miniature pressure transducers mounted in the blade. The flow fields with and without inlet total pressure distortion were analyzed numerically by solving steady and unsteady forms of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations. Steady three-dimensional viscous flow calculations were performed for the flow without inlet distortion while unsteady three-dimensional viscous flow calculations were used for the flow with inlet distortion. For the time-accurate calculation, circumferential and radial variations of the inlet total pressure were used as a time-dependent inflow boundary condition. A second-order implicit scheme was used for the time integration. The experimental measurements and the numerical analysis are highly complementary for this study because of the extreme complexity of the flow field. The current investigation shows that inlet flow distortions travel through the rotor blade passage and are convected into the following stator. At a high rotor speed where the flow is transonic, the passage shock was found to oscillate by as much as 20% of the blade chord, and very strong interactions between the unsteady passage shock and the blade boundary layer were observed. This interaction increases the effective blockage of the passage, resulting in an increased aerodynamic loss and a reduced stall margin. The strong interaction between the passage shock and the blade boundary layer increases the peak aerodynamic loss by about one percent.

The Stability

The nonlinear dynamical equations are established by using the method of quasi-shells for three-dimensional shallow spherical shells with circular bottom. Displacement mode that meets the boundary conditions of fixed edges is given by using the method of the separate variable, A nonlinear forced vibration equation containing the second and the third order is derived by using the method of Galerkin. The stability of the equilibrium point is studied by using the Floquet exponent.

The relationship between turbomachinery blade circulation and tip clearance vortex circulation measured experimentally is examined using three-dimensional viscous flow computations. It is shown that the clearance vortex circulation one would measure is dependent on the placement of the fluid contour around which the circulation measurement is taken. Radial transport of vorticity results in the magnitude of the measured clearance vortex circulation generally being less than the blade circulation. For compressors, radial transport of vorticity shed from the blade tip in proximity to the endwall is the principal contributor to the discrepancy between the measured vortex circulation and blade circulation. Further, diffusion of vorticity shed at the blade tip toward the endwall makes it impossible in most practical cases to construct a fluid contour around the vortex that encloses all, and only, the vorticity shed from the blade tip. One should thus not expect agreement between measured tip clearance vortex circulation and circulation around the blade.
