Uniqueness Of A Solution

The nonstationary Navier–Stokes equations are studied in the infinite cylinder Π = {x = (x', xn) ∈ Rn:  x' ∈ σ ∈ R n – 1: – ∞ < xn < ∞, n = 2, 3} under the additional condition of the prescribed time-periodic flow-rate (flux) F(t). It is assumed that the flow-rate F belongs to the space L2(0, 2π), only. The time-periodic Poiseuille solution has the form u(x, t) = (0, ... , 0, U(x', t)),  p(x,t) = –q(t)xn + p0(t), where (U(x', t), q(t)) is a solution of an inverse problem for the time-periodic heat equation with a specific over-determination condition. The existence and uniqueness of a solution to this problem is proved.

Bounding Surfaces

Flows between two closely spaced bounding surfaces are frequently appear in engineering applications and natural flows. In current paper the flow over a cylinder in a narrow rectangular duct was investigated by numerical computations of Navier-Stokes equations using Large eddy simulations (LES) at ReD = 3 750 based on cylinder diameter and the bulk velocity at inflow boundary. The influence of the bounding walls was demonstrated by comparing mean flow streamlines with the flow over an infinite cylinder at close Reynolds numbers. A comparison between the time-averaged velocity field in front and past the cylinder with experimental from the literature data showed good agreement although the characteristic horseshoe vortex structures are highly sensitive to Reynolds number and turbulence level at inflow boundary. Most energetic modes in recirculating region were revealed by spectral analysis. These low-frequency modulations were characterized by the pair of dominating vortices which are expected to have high influence on the heat transfer in near wake of the cylinder.

The Mean

Oscillatory forcing of a porous medium may have a dramatic effect on the mean flow rate produced by a steady applied pressure gradient. The oscillatory forcing may excite nonlinear inertial effects leading to either enhancement or retardation of the mean flow. Here, in Part 1, we consider the effects of non-zero inertial forces on steady flows in porous media, and investigate the changes in the flow character arising from changes in both the strength of the inertial terms and the geometry of the medium. The steady-state Navier–Stokes equations are solved via a Galerkin finite element method to determine the velocity fields for simple two-dimensional models of porous media. Two geometric models are considered based on constricted channels and periodic arrays of circular cylinders. For both geometries, we observe solution multiplicity yielding both symmetric and asymmetric flow patterns. For the cylinder arrays, we demonstrate that inertial effects lead to anisotropy in the effective permeability, with the direction of minimum resistance dependent on the solid volume fraction. We identify nonlinear flow phenomena which might be exploited by oscillatory forcing to yield a net increase in the mean flow rate. In Part 2, we take up the subject of unsteady flows governed by the full time-dependent Navier–Stokes equations.

Time Average

The turbulent flow generated by an oscillating pressure gradient close to an infinite plate is studied by means of numerical simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations to analyse the characteristics of the steady streaming generated within the boundary layer. When the pressure gradient that drives the flow is given by a single harmonic component, the time average over a cycle of the flow rate in the boundary layer takes both positive and negative values and the steady streaming computed by averaging the flow over n cycles tends to zero as n tends to infinity. On the other hand, when the pressure gradient is given by the sum of two harmonic components, with angular frequencies ω1 and ω2 = 2ω1, the time average over a cycle of the flow rate does not change sign. In this case steady streaming is generated within the boundary layer and it persists in the irrotational region. It is shown both theoretically and numerically that in spite of the presence of steady streaming, the time average over n cycles of the hydrodynamic force, acting per unit area of the plate, vanishes as n tends to infinity.
