Navier Stokes Equations

In this study, viscous, turbulent, and steady flow around an airfoil near the water surface has been simulated through a numerical method. In this simulation, Navier-Stokes equations have been solved using the finite volume method with a discretized second-order accuracy and PIMPLE algorithm. The Volume of Fraction (VOF) method has been employed to predict the free surface flow. A part of the simulation results has been validated through numerical and experimental data. Besides considering the style of flow separation in the angles of numerous attacks and airfoil static stall near the surface of the water. For this purpose, the airfoil simulation has been processed airfoil in the 68,000 Reynolds number, angle of attack of 2.5 to 11 degree and different distances from the water surface ( h/c = 0.5, 1,  ). In a larger angle of attacks, flow is initially separated from the leading edge of the surface, and then it attaches to the surface at a lower point. This reattachment leads to an increase in adverse pressure gradient and the formation of a larger separation in the downstream of the airfoil. The pressure gradient dramatically increases, and the flow gets separated from the upstream of the airfoil. Upon lowering distance from the surface, static stall takes place at a higher point and a lower angle of attack, respectively.

Navier Stokes Equations

Conditionally averaged Navier-Stokes equations are used to describe transitional flow in adverse pressure gradient combined with a transport equation for the intermittency factor γ. A transport equation developped in earlier work has been modified to eliminate the use of a distance along a streamline. An extension of the correlations is proposed to determine the spot growth parameter in adverse pressure gradient. This approach is verified against flows over a flat plate with an elliptical leading edge.

Shedding Frequency

The separation of a two-dimensional laminar boundary layer under the influence of a suddenly imposed external adverse pressure gradient was studied by time-accurate numerical solutions of the Navier–Stokes equations. It was found that a strong adverse pressure gradient created periodic vortex shedding from the separation. The general features of the time-averaged results were similar to experimental results for laminar separation bubbles. Comparisons were made with the ‘steady’ separation experiments of Gaster (1966). It was found that his ‘bursting’ occurs under the same conditions as our periodic shedding, suggesting that bursting is actually periodic shedding which has been time-averaged. The Strouhal number based on the shedding frequency, local free-stream velocity, and boundary-layer momentum thickness at separation was independent of the Reynolds number and the pressure gradient. A criterion for onset of shedding was established. The shedding frequency was the same as that predicted for the most amplified linear inviscid instability of the separated shear layer.

A finite volume method with a multiphase type free surface description is employed to calculate the flow around ships in shallow and restricted channels. The flows at critical and supercritical depth Froude numbers (Fnd = 1.0 and Fnd = 1.18) are calculated for Series–60 monohull and a medium speed catamaran. A steady state solution for Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with a k-ε turbulence model is obtained by time marching. Computed wave profiles are in good agreement with model tests in the near field of the ship. The computed and measured resistance agree fairly well.

A three dimensional non-hydrostatic numerical model is presented based on the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and mass transport equations. An unstructured finite-volume technique is used to discretized the governing equations with good adaptable to complicated boundary. A conservative scalar transport algorithm is also applied in this model. An integral method of the top- layer pressure is applied to reduce the number of vertical layers. Three classical examples including periodic waves propagating over a submerged bar and non-hydrostatic lock exchange are used to demonstrate the capability and efficiency of the model. The simulation results are in good agreement with the analytical solution and experimental data.

Physical Model Tests

COMFLOW is a general 3D free-surface flow solver. The numerical method is based on the Navier-Stokes equations in a porous medium, with additional force terms to represent the (turbulent) interaction of the flow with the medium. The free surface is displaced by means of the Volume-Of-Fluid method. The main objective in this paper is to validate the permeable flow model in 3D. Tailor-made physical model tests were performed for this purpose. In the experiment surface elevations are measured inside and around a permeable structure with 18 wave gauges in total. The measurements are represented well by the simulation results.

Oscillatory Boundary Layer

Numerical simulations of Navier–Stokes equations are performed to study the flow originated by an oscillating pressure gradient close to a wall characterized by small imperfections. The scenario of transition from the laminar to the turbulent regime is investigated and the results are interpreted in the light of existing analytical theories. The ‘disturbed-laminar’ and the ‘intermittently turbulent’ regimes detected experimentally are reproduced by the present simulations. Moreover it is found that imperfections of the wall are of fundamental importance in causing the growth of two-dimensional disturbances which in turn trigger turbulence in the Stokes boundary layer. Finally, in the intermittently turbulent regime, a description is given of the temporal development of turbulence characteristics.

Small Influence

To give insight into the clocking effect and its influence on the wake transportation and its interaction, the unsteady three-dimensional flow through a 1.5-stage axial low pressure turbine is simulated numerically using a density-correction based, Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes equations commercial CFD code. The 2nd stator clocking is applied over ten equal tangential positions. The results show that the harmonic blade number ratio is an important factor affecting the clocking effect. The clocking effect has a very small influence on the turbine efficiency in this investigation. The efficiency difference between the maximum and minimum configuration is nearly 0.1%. The maximum efficiency can be achieved when the 1st stator wake enters the 2nd stator passage near blade suction surface and its adjacent wake passes through the 2nd stator passage close to blade pressure surface. The minimum efficiency appears if the 1st stator wake impinges upon the leading edge of the 2nd stator and its adjacent wake of the 1st stator passed through the mid-channel in the 2nd stator.

Navier Stokes Equations

The leading-edge receptivity to acoustic waves of two-dimensional parabolic bodies was investigated using a spatial solution of the Navier–Stokes equations in vorticity/streamfunction form in parabolic coordinates. The free stream is composed of a uniform flow with a superposed periodic velocity fluctuation of small amplitude. The method follows that of Haddad & Corke (1998) in which the solution for the basic flow and linearized perturbation flow are solved separately. We primarily investigated the effect of frequency and angle of incidence (−180° [les ] α2 [les ] 180°) of the acoustic waves on the leading-edge receptivity. The results at α2 = 0° were found to be in quantitative agreement with those of Haddad & Corke (1998), and substantiated the Strouhal number scaling based on the nose radius. The results with sound waves at angles of incidence agreed qualitatively with the analysis of Hammerton & Kerschen (1996). These included a maximum receptivity at α2 = 90°, and an asymmetric variation in the receptivity with sound incidence angle, with minima at angles which were slightly less than α2 = 0° and α2 = 180°.

Navier Stokes Equations

The Navier-Stokes equations have been solved in order to obtain an analytical solution of the fully developed laminar flow in a duct having a rectangular cross section with two opposite equally porous walls. We obtained solutions both for the case of steady flow as well as for the case of oscillating pressure gradient flow. The pulsating flow is obtained by the superposition of the steady and oscillating pressure gradient solutions. The solution has applications for blood flow in fiber membranes used for the artificial kidney.
