Previous analytical work on stability of fluid-conveying pipes assumed a uniform velocity profile for the conveyed fluid. In real fluid flows, the presence of viscosity leads to a sheared region near the wall. Earlier studies correctly note that viscous forces do not affect the dynamics of the system since these forces are balanced by pressure drop in the conveyed fluid. Although viscous shear has not been ignored in these studies, a uniform velocity profile assumes that the sheared region is infinitely thin. Prior analysis was extended to account for a fully developed nonuniform profile such as would be encountered in real fluid flows. A modified, highly tractable equation of motion was derived, which includes a single additional parameter to account for the true momentum of the fluid. This empirical parameter was determined by numerical analysis over the Reynolds number range of interest. The stability of cantilever pipes conveying fluid with two types of non-uniform velocity profile was assessed. In the first case, the profile was a function of Reynolds number and transition to turbulence occurred before the onset of flutter instability. This case had stability properties similar to the uniform velocity case except in specific narrow regions of the parameter space. The second case required that the Reynolds number be such that the flow was always laminar. For this case, lower fluid velocity was required to achieve instability, and the oscillation frequency at instability was considerably lower over much of the parameter space, compared to the uniform case.

Abstract In this paper, the dynamics of axially functionally graded (AFG) conical pipes conveying fluid are analyzed. The materials are distributed along the conical pipe axis as a volume fraction function. Either the elastic modulus or the density of the AFG conical pipe is assumed to vary from the inlet to the outlet. The governing equation of the AFG conical pipe is derived using the Hamiltonian principle and solved by the differential quadrature method. The effects of the volume fraction index, volume fraction function type and reduction factor on the natural frequency and critical velocity are analyzed. It is found that for a power function volume fraction type, the natural frequency and critical velocity increase with increasing volume fraction index and clearly increase when the volume fraction index is within the range (0, 10). For an exponential function volume fraction type, the natural frequency and critical velocity change rapidly within the range (−10, 10), besides the above range the relationship between the natural frequency, critical velocity and volume fraction index is approximate of little change. The natural frequency and critical velocity decrease linearly with increasing reduction factor.

A numerical study of non-linear, high amplitude standing waves in non-cylindrical circular resonators is reported here. These waves are shock-less and can generate peak acoustic overpressures that can exceed the ambient pressure by three/four times its nominal value. A high fidelity compressible computational fluid dynamic model is used to simulate the phenomena in cylindrical and arbitrarily shaped axisymmetric resonators. A right circular cylinder and frustum of cone are the two geometries studied. The model is validated using past numerical and experimental results of standing waves in cylindrical resonators. The non-linear nature of the harmonic response of the frustum of cone resonator system is investigated for two different working fluids (carbon dioxide and argon) operating at various values of piston amplitude. The high amplitude non-linear oscillations demonstrated can be used as a prime mover in a variety of applications including thermoacoustic cryocooling.
