An approximate analysis of the one� dimensional expanding flow of an ideal dissociating gas, which is initially in a frozen state, is presented. The different types of solutions of the equations of the flow, for variations in the rates of expansion and recombination, are discussed. Some numerical results indicating the distances and other dimensions involved are included. The results of the approximate analysis are compared with some numerical solutions and are found to be valid for all cases in which the analysis can be expected to apply.

AbstractAn analytic solution is developed for the one-dimensional dissipational slip gradient equation first described by Gurtin [“On the plasticity of single crystals: free energy, microforces, plastic strain-gradients”, J. Mech. Phys. Solids48 (2000) 989–1036] and then investigated numerically by Anand et al. [“A one-dimensional theory of strain-gradient plasticity: formulation, analysis, numerical results”, J. Mech. Phys. Solids53 (2005) 1798–1826]. However we find that the analytic solution is incompatible with the zero-sliprate boundary condition (“clamped boundary condition”) postulated by these authors, and is in fact excluded by the theory. As a consequence the analytic solution agrees with the numerical results except near the boundary. The equation also admits a series of higher mode solutions where the numerical result corresponds to (a particular case of) the fundamental mode. Anand et al. also established that the one-dimensional dissipational gradients strengthen the material, but this proposition only holds if zero-sliprate boundary conditions can be imposed, which we have shown cannot be done. Hence the possibility remains open that dissipational gradient weakening may also occur.

Abstract The process of diffusion-limited cell dehydration is modeled for a planar system by writing the one-dimensional diffusion-equation for a cell with moving, semipermeable boundaries. For the simplifying case of isothermal dehydration with constant diffusivity, an approximate analytical solution is obtained by linearizing the governing partial differential equations. The general problem must be solved numerically. The Forward Time Center Space (FTCS) and Crank-Nicholson differencing schemes are implemented, and evaluated by comparison with the analytical solution. Putative stability criteria for the two algorithms are proposed based on numerical experiments, and the Crank-Nicholson method is shown to be accurate for a mesh with as few as six nodes.

The empirical expressions for the equivalent friction factor to simulate the effect of particle-wall interaction with a single solid species have been extended to model the wall shear stress for multispecies solid-gas flows. Expressions representing the equivalent shear stress for solid-gas flows obtained from these wall friction models are included in the one-dimensional two-phase flow model and it can be used to study the effect of particle-wall interaction on the flow characteristics.

AbstractIn this paper, energy slope averaging in the one-dimensional steady gradually varied flow model is considered. For this purpose, different methods of averaging the energy slope between cross-sections are used. The most popular are arithmetic, geometric, harmonic and hydraulic means. However, from the formal viewpoint, the application of different averaging formulas results in different numerical integration formulas. This study examines the basic properties of numerical methods resulting from different types of averaging.

Unsteady flow in collapsible tubes has been widely studied for a number of different physiological applications; the principal motivation for the work of this paper is the study of blood flow in the jugular vein of an upright, long-necked subject (a giraffe). The one-dimensional equations governing gravity- or pressure-driven flow in collapsible tubes have been solved in the past using finite-difference (MacCormack) methods. Such schemes, however, produce numerical artifacts near discontinuities such as elastic jumps. This paper describes a numerical scheme developed to solve the one-dimensional equations using a more accurate upwind finite volume (Godunov) scheme that has been used successfully in gas dynamics and shallow water wave problems. The adapatation of the Godunov method to the present application is non-trivial due to the highly nonlinear nature of the pressure–area relation for collapsible tubes.The code is tested by comparing both unsteady and converged solutions with analytical solutions where available. Further tests include comparison with solutions obtained from MacCormack methods which illustrate the accuracy of the present method.Finally the possibility of roll waves occurring in collapsible tubes is also considered, both as a test case for the scheme and as an interesting phenomenon in its own right, arising out of the similarity of the collapsible tube equations to those governing shallow water flow.

This paper shows the power of spreadsheets as a strong tool in engineering teaching and research labs. In applied thermo-fluid education, even the one dimensional design or simple experimental measurement and analysis becomes a very complex exercise unless the procedure is programmed. Due to lengthy calculations and iterations, simple solutions are not possible. Exercises have therefore been limited in the classroom. But recent advances in powerful spreadsheets have opened a simple and fast way of performing design and advanced measurements. In recent times due to the introduction of a variety of mathematical soft wares, students have been relived from unnecessary time consuming chores; and therefore, complex measurements can now be carried out more comprehensively and easily. This paper reports on an experimental investigation to determine the effect of the vaneless diffuser width on the unsteady flow performance of a centrifugal compressor stage, where the whole data processing was carried out using a spreadsheet both for the steady and unsteady characteristics. Two compressor configurations with different vaneless diffuser width were investigated at four different impeller speeds and compared in the frequency and time domain. Only one diffuser rotating stall but different types of impeller rotating stalls were detected. The experiments show that the diffuser has a strong influence on the flow in the impeller including in areas way upstream. Analysis of the results indicated: • With increasing diffuser width the onset of impeller rotating stall was shifted to lower flow rates. • With increasing diffuser width the frequencies of the rotating stalls decreased. • There is a common tendency in most of the experiments to lower numbers of rotating cells with increasing relative speed. The whole data acquisition, processing and presentation are carried out using Excel.

We consider fully discrete schemes for the one-dimensional linear Schrödinger equation and analyze whether the classical dispersive properties of the continuous model are presented in these approximations. In particular, Strichartz estimates and the local smoothing of the numerical solutions are analyzed. Using a backward Euler approximation of the linear semigroup we introduce a convergent scheme for the nonlinear Schrödinger equation with nonlinearities which cannot be treated by energy methods.

Solution Accuracy

In the present paper we consider second order compact upwind schemes with a space split time derivative (CABARET) applied to one‐dimensional compressible gas flows. As opposed to the conventional approach associated with incorporating adjacent space cells we use information from adjacent time layer to improve the solution accuracy. Taking the first order Roe scheme as the basis we develop a few higher (i.e. second within regions of smooth solutions) order accurate difference schemes. One of them (CABARET3) is formulated in a two‐time‐layer form, which makes it most simple and robust. Supersonic and subsonic shock‐tube tests are used to compare the new schemes with several well‐known second‐order TVD schemes. In particular, it is shown that CABARET3 is notably more accurate than the standard second‐order Roe scheme with MUSCL flux splitting.
