Two Fluid

The general hydrodynamic behavior at small clearance Reynolds numbers of two fluids of different density and viscosity occupying the finite annular space between a rotating and stationary disk is explored using a simplified version of the Navier-Stokes equations which retains only the centrifugal force portion of the inertia terms. A criterion for selecting the annular flow fields that are compatible with physical reservoirs is established and then used to determine the conditions under which two-fluid flows in the annulus might be expected for specific fluid combinations.

Two Fluid

We investigate a one dimensional flow described with the non-compressible coupled Euler and non-compressible Navier-Stokes equations in the Cartesian coordinate system. We couple the two fluids through the continuity equation where different void fractions can be considered. The well-known self-similar Ansatz was applied and analytic solutions were derived for both velocity and pressure field as well.

In this paper we investigate numerically chaotic behaviors of incompressible fluid flows at large Reynolds numbers in triangular driven cavities. The problem is first formulated as incompressible Navier–Stokes equations with appropriate boundary and initial conditions. The equations are then solved numerically by an exponentially fitted finite volume method for various Reynolds numbers up to 107. Numerical experiments on flows in triangular cavities with different depths are performed. The numerical results show clearly that the transitions of the flows from lamina to turbulence/chaos follow some conventional routes to chaos.

Two Fluid

Nonisothermal viscous two-fluid flows occur in numerous kinds of coating devices. The corresponding mathematical models often represent two-dimensional free boundary value problems for the Navier-Stokes equations or their modifications. In the present paper we are concerned with a particular problem of coupled heat and mass transfer. Marangoni convection is incorporated, too. The solvability of a corresponding stationary problem is discussed. The obtained results generalize previous results for a similar isothermal problem.

Good Agreement

       In this paper, the phenomena of vortex shedding from the circular cylinder surface has been studied at several Reynolds Numbers (40≤Re≤ 300).The 2D, unsteady, incompressible, Laminar flow, continuity and Navier Stokes equations have been solved numerically by using CFD Package FLUENT. In this package PISO algorithm is used in the pressure-velocity coupling.        The numerical grid is generated by using Gambit program. The velocity and pressure fields are obtained upstream and downstream of the cylinder at each time and it is also calculated the mean value of drag coefficient and value of lift coefficient .The results showed that the flow is strongly unsteady and unsymmetrical at Re>60. The results have been compared with the available experiments and a good agreement has been found between them

The work is devoted to the analysis of the flow of immiscible liquid in a flat channel and the creation of calculation schemes for determining the flow parameters. A critical analysis of the well-known Two Fluids Model was carried out and a new scheme for the determination of wall and interfacial friction, called the hydraulic approximation in the theory of stratified flows, was proposed. Verification of the proposed approximate model was carried out on the basis of a direct numerical solution of the Navier–Stokes equations for each fluid by a finite-difference method with phase-boundary tracking by the VOF (Volume of Fluid) method. The graphical dependencies illustrating the change in the interfase boundaries of liquids and the averaged over the occupied area of the phase velocities along the flat channel are presented. The results of comparative calculations for two-fluid models are also given, according to the developed model in the hydraulic approximation and direct modeling. It is shown that the calculations in accordance with the hydraulic approximation are more consistent with the simulation results. Thus, the model of hydraulic approximation is the most preferred method for calculating stratified flows, especially in cases of variable volumetric content of liquids.

Model Dynamics

The truncated Burgers models have a unique equilibrium state which is defined continuously for all the Reynolds numbers and attainable from a realizable class of initial disturbances. Hence, they represent a sequence of convergent approximations to the original (untruncated) Burgers problem. We have pointed out that consideration of certain degenerate equilibrium states can lead to the successive turbulence-turbulence transitions and finite-jump transitions that were suggested by Case & Chiu. As a prototype of the Navier–Stokes equations, Burgers model can simulate the initial-value type of numerical integration of the Fourier amplitude equations for a turbulent channel flow. Thus, the Burgers model dynamics display certain idiosyncrasies of the actual channel flow problem described by a truncated set of Fourier amplitude equations, which includes only a modest number of modes due to the limited capability of the computer at hand.

The linear stability of Hagen-Poiseuille flow (Poiseuille pipe flow) with superimposed rigid rotation against small three-dimensional disturbances is examined at finite and infinite axial Reynolds numbers. The neutral curve, which is obtained by numerical solution of the system of perturbation equations (derived from the Navier-Stokes equations), has been confirmed for finite axial Reynolds numbers by a few simple experiments. The results suggest that, at high axial Reynolds numbers, the amount of rotation required for destabilization could be small enough to have escaped notice in experiments on the transition to turbulence in (nominally) non-rotating pipe flow.

Viscous Drop

This theoretical study is devoted to description of fluid flow and heat transfer in a spreading viscous drop with phase transition. A similarity solution for the combined full Navier–Stokes equations and energy equation for the expanding lamella generated by drop impact is obtained for a general case of oblique drop impact with high Weber and Reynolds numbers. The theory is applicable to the analysis of the phenomena of drop solidification, target melting and film boiling. The theoretical predictions for the contact temperature at the substrate surface agree well with the existing experimental data.
