Optimization of a second-order multiply-connected inhomogeneous boundary-value problem was considered in terms of elastic torsion. External boundary and material proportions are the applied constraints in finding optimal internal configurations of the cross section. The optimization procedure is based on the numerical simulation of the membrane analogy and the results obtained indicate that the procedure is usable as an engineering tool. Optimal solutions are obtained for some representative cases of the torsion problem and they are presented in the form of tables and figures.

Current simulations of swirling flows in pipes are limited to relatively low Reynolds number flows (Re < 6000); however, the characteristic Reynolds number is much higher (Re > 20,000) in most of engineering applications. To address this difficulty, this paper presents a numerical simulation algorithm of the dynamics of incompressible, inviscid-limit, axisymmetric swirling flows in a pipe, including the vortex breakdown process. It is based on an explicit, first-order difference scheme in time and an upwind, second-order difference scheme in space for the time integration of the circulation and azimuthal vorticity. A second-order Poisson equation solver for the spatial integration of the stream function in terms of azimuthal vorticity is used. In addition, when reversed flow zones appear, an averaging step of properties is applied at designated time steps. This adds slight artificial viscosity to the algorithm and prevents growth of localized high-frequency numerical noise inside the breakdown zone that is related to the expected singularity that must appear in any flow simulation based on the Euler equations. Mesh refinement studies show agreement of computations for various mesh sizes. Computed examples of flow dynamics demonstrate agreement with linear and nonlinear stability theories of vortex flows in a finite-length pipe. Agreement is also found with theoretically predicted steady axisymmetric breakdown states in a pipe as flow evolves to a time-asymptotic state. These findings indicate that the present algorithm provides an accurate prediction of the inviscid-limit, axisymmetric breakdown process. Also, the numerical results support the theoretical predictions and shed light on vortex dynamics at high Re.

AbstractBased on the improved computational fluid dynamics and discrete element method (CFD-DEM), heat transfer and two-component flow of biomass and quartz sand have been studied from experiments and numerical simulation in this paper. During experiments, the particle temperature and moving images are respectively recorded by infrared thermal imager and high speed camera. With the increase of the velocity, the mixing index (MI) and the cooling rate of the particles are rising. Due to larger heat capacity and mass, the temperature of biomass drops slower than that of quartz sand. Fictitious element method is employed to solve the incompatibility of the traditional CFD-DEM where the cylindrical biomass are considered as an aggregation of numerous fictitious sphere particles arranged in certain sequence. By the comparison of data collected by infrared thermal imager and the simulated results, it can be concluded that experimental data is basically agreement with numerical simulation results. Directly affected by inflow air (25℃), the average temperature of particles in the bed height area (h>30 mm) is about 3 degrees lower than that of the other heights. When the superficial gas velocity is larger, the fluidization is good, and the gas temperature distribution is more uniform in the whole area. On the contrary, bubbles are not easy to produce and the fluidization is restricted at lower superficial gas velocity. Gas-solid heat transfer mainly exists under the bed height of 10 mm, and decreases rapidly on fluidized bed height. The mixing index (MI) is employed to quantitatively discuss the mixing effectiveness, which first rises accelerate, then rising speed decreases, finally tends to a upper limit.

AbstractThe unsteady convective boundary layer flow of a nanofluid along a permeable shrinking/stretching plate under suction and second-order slip effects has been developed. Buongiorno’s two-component nonhomogeneous equilibrium model is implemented to take the effects of Brownian motion and thermophoresis into consideration. It can be emphasized that, our two-phase nanofluid model along with slip concentration at the wall shows better physical aspects relative to taking the constant volume concentration at the wall. The similarity transformation method (STM), allows us to reducing nonlinear governing PDEs to nonlinear dimensionless ODEs, before being solved numerically by employing the Keller-box method (KBM). The graphical results portray the effects of model parameters on boundary layer behavior. Moreover, results validation has been demonstrated as the skin friction and the reduced Nusselt number. We understand shrinking plate case is a key factor affecting non-uniqueness of the solutions and the range of the shrinking parameter for which the solution exists, increases with the first order slip parameter, the absolute value of the second order slip parameter as well as the transpiration rate parameter. Besides, the second-order slip at the interface decreases the rate of heat transfer in a nanofluid. Finally, the analysis for no-slip and first-order slip boundary conditions can also be retrieved as special cases of the present model.

The Josephson equation with constant current and sinusoidal forcings and a phase shift is investigated in detail: the existence and the bifurcations of harmonics and subharmonics under small perturbations are given, by using the second-order averaging method and Melnikov function; the influence on bifurcations of periodic or subharmonics as the phase shift varies is considered; some numerical simulation results are reported in order to prove our theoretical predictions.

The present work considers the turbulent flow inside an annular rotor-stator cavity with and without centrifugal throughflow. Extensive measurements performed using a two-component laser-Doppler anemometer technique, and pressure transducers are compared to numerical predictions based on one-point statistical modeling using a low-Reynolds-number second-order full-stress transport closure. A study of the flow control parameters is performed, and, for the first time, a better insight into the transition from Batchelor to Stewartson types of flow is gained from this study. The advanced second-order model is confirmed to be the adequate level of closure to describe such complex flows.
