We investigate the special cases of the formation of shocks in the accretion disks around the nonrotating (Schwarzschild) black holes in cases where one or few stars perturb the disk. We model the structure of disk with a 2D fully general relativistic hydrodynamic code and investigate a variety of cases in which the stars interacting with the disk are captured at various locations. We have found the following results: (1) if the stars perturb the disk at nonsymmetric locations, a moving one-armed spiral shock wave is produced and it destroys the disk eventually; (2) if the disk is perturbed by a single star located close to the black hole, a standing shock wave is produced while the disk becomes an accretion tori; (3) if the disk is perturbed by stars at symmetric locations, moving two-armed spiral shock waves are produced while the disk reaches a steady state; (4) continuous injection of matter into the stable disk produces a standing shock wave behind the black hole. Our outcomes reinforce the view that different perturbations on the stable accretion disk carry out different types of shock waves which produce Quasi-Periodic Oscillation (QPO) phenomena in galactic black hole candidates and it is observed as a X-ray.

AbstractWith kilohertz quasi-periodic oscillation (kHz QPO) sources in neutron star low mass X-ray binaries (NS-LMXBs) published up to now, we analyze the centroid frequency (ν) distribution of twin kHz QPOs. We find that Atoll and Z sources show the similar distributions of ν1 and ν2, which indicate that twin kHz QPOs may be the common property of NS-LXMBs and have the similar physical origins. The mean values of ν1 and ν2 in Atoll sources are higher than those in Z sources, and we consider that this may because the QPO signals are sheltered by the thicken accretion disk or corona in Z sources. The maximums of ν2 in both Atoll and Z sources are the same order as the Keplerian orbital frequency of the NS surface, so kHz QPOs could occur near the NS surface.

Oscillating Sphere

Experiments are presented in which axisymmetric internal waves are generated by an oscillating sphere moving vertically in a stably stratified salt solution. The Reynolds numbers for the sphere based on the diameter and the mean velocity are between 10 and 200. Lighthill's theory for dispersive waves is used to calculate the phase configuration of the internal waves. The agreement between experiment and theory is reasonably good.

Oscillating Sphere

This work analyzes the effects of the interaction between an oscillating sphere and free surface flows through the reconstruction of the flow field around the body and the analysis of the displacements. The experiments were performed in an open water channel, where the sphere had three different boundary conditions in respect to the flow, defined as h* (the ratio between the distance of the sphere upper surface from the free surface and the sphere diameter). A quasi-symmetric condition at h* = 2, with the sphere equally distant from the free surface and the channel bottom, and two conditions of asymmetric bounded flow, one with the sphere located at a distance of 0.003m from the bottom at h* = 3.97 and the other with the sphere close to the free surface at h* = 0, were considered. The sphere was free to move in two directions, streamwise (x) and transverse to the flow (y), and was characterized by values of mass ratio, m* = 1.34 (ratio between the system mass and the displaced fluid mass), and damping ratio, ζ = 0.004. The comparison between the results of the analyzed boundary conditions has shown the strong influence of the free surface on the evolution of the vortex structures downstream the obstacle.

Curved Ducts

A numerical study is made on the fully developed bifurcation structure and stability of the mixed convection in rotating curved ducts of square cross-section with the emphasis on the effect of buoyancy force. The rotation can be positive or negative. The fluid can be heated or cooled. The study reveals the rich solution and flow structures and complicated stability features. One symmetric and two symmetric/asymmetric solution branches are found with seventy five limit points and fourteen bifurcation points. The flows on these branches can be symmetric, asymmetric, 2-cell, and up to 14-cell structures. Dynamic responses of the multiple solutions to finite random disturbances are examined by the direct transient computation. It is found that possible physically realizable fully developed flows evolve, as the variation of buoyancy force, from a stable steady multicell state at a large buoyancy force of cooling to the coexistence of three stable steady multicell states, a temporal periodic oscillation state, the coexistence of periodic oscillation and chaotic oscillation, a chaotic temporal oscillation, a subharmonic-bifurcation-driven asymmetric oscillating state, and a stable steady 2-cell state at large buoyancy force of heating.
