Good Agreement

A numerical and experimental study is described for the two-dimensional steady flow through a uniform cascade of normal flat plates. The Navier–Stokes equations are written in terms of the stream function and vorticity and are solved using a second-order-accurate finite-difference scheme which is based on a modified procedure to preserve accuracy and iterative convergence at higher Reynolds numbers. The upstream and downstream boundary conditions are discussed and an asymptotic solution is employed both upstream and downstream. A frequently used method for dealing with corner singularities is shown to be inaccurate and a method for overcoming this problem is described. Numerical solutions have been obtained for blockage ratio of 50 % and Reynolds numbers in the range 0 [les ]R[les ] 500 and results for both the lengths of attached eddies and the drag coefficients are presented. The calculations indicate that the eddy length increases linearly withR, at least up toR= 500, and that the multiplicative constant is in very good agreement with the theoretical prediction of Smith (1985a), who considered a related problem. In the case ofR= 0 the Navier–Stokes equations are solved using the finite-difference scheme and a modification of the boundary-element method which treats the corner singularities. The solutions obtained by the two methods are compared and the results are shown to be in good agreement. An experimental investigation has been performed at small and moderate values of the Reynolds numbers and there is excellent agreement with the numerical results both for flow streamlines and eddy lengths.

The Way

The way in which energy propagates away from a two-dimensional oscillatory disturbance in a thermocline is considered theoretically and experimentally. It is shown how the St. Andrew's-cross-wave is modified by reflections and how the cross-wave can develop into thermocline waves. A linear shear flow is then superimposed on the thermocline. Ray theory is used to evaluate the wave shapes and these are compared to finite-difference solutions of the full Navier–Stokes equations.

Computational Performance

CFD Julia is a programming module developed for senior undergraduate or graduate-level coursework which teaches the foundations of computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The module comprises several programs written in general-purpose programming language Julia designed for high-performance numerical analysis and computational science. The paper explains various concepts related to spatial and temporal discretization, explicit and implicit numerical schemes, multi-step numerical schemes, higher-order shock-capturing numerical methods, and iterative solvers in CFD. These concepts are illustrated using the linear convection equation, the inviscid Burgers equation, and the two-dimensional Poisson equation. The paper covers finite difference implementation for equations in both conservative and non-conservative form. The paper also includes the development of one-dimensional solver for Euler equations and demonstrate it for the Sod shock tube problem. We show the application of finite difference schemes for developing two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes solvers with different boundary conditions applied to the lid-driven cavity and vortex-merger problems. At the end of this paper, we develop hybrid Arakawa-spectral solver and pseudo-spectral solver for two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Additionally, we compare the computational performance of these minimalist fashion Navier-Stokes solvers written in Julia and Python.

A model of moisture movement in wood is presented in this paper in a two-dimensional-in-space formulation. The finite-difference technique has been used in order to obtain the solution of the problem. The model was applied to predict the moisture content in sawn boards from pine during long term storage under outdoor climatic conditions. The satisfactory agreement between the numerical solution and experimental data was obtained.
