[en] A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE MAIN PARTICLE-BASED METHODS USED FOR FLOW SIMULATION / [pt] UMA ANÁLISE COMPARATIVA DOS PRINCIPAIS MÉTODOS BASEADOS EM PARTÍCULAS PARA SIMULAÇÃO DE ESCOAMENTOS

JOAO FELIPE BARBOSA ALVES 15 January 2009 (has links)
[pt] Neste trabalho, foi realizado um estudo comparativo de eficiência e acurácia dos métodos de partículas Moving Particle Semi-implicit Method (MPS) e Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH). A acurácia dos métodos de partículas foi determinada tomando-se como referência os métodos dos Volumes Finitos e Volume of Fluid (VOF). A comparação de acurácia entre os métodos MPS e SPH foi realizada através da simulação dos problemas de quebra de barragem e de descarga de água. Além disso, o problema de escoamento laminar em uma cavidade quadrada e o problema do tubo de choque foram simulados com sucesso pelo método SPH. A análise de eficiência foi realizada pela determinação do tempo total de processamento em função do número de partículas. Adicionalmente, uma análise da influencia do número de partículas na solução foi realizada. Os resultados obtidos mostram que ambos os métodos podem ser considerados como boas ferramentas para a simulação de fluidos. / [en] This work comprises a comparative study of the particle methods Moving Particle Semi-implicit (MPS) and Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) in terms of their efficiency and accuracy. The methods of Finite Volume and Volume of Fluid (VOF) were used as reference for determining the accuracy of the particle methods. The methods MPS and SPH were compared with each other by means of simulations of the problems of dam collapse and water discharge. On top of that, the problems of shear driven cavity and shock tube were successfully simulated using SPH. In order to analyze the methods` efficiency, the total processing time as a function of the number of particles was calculated. Finally, an analysis of the influence of the number of particles in solution was performed. The results obtained in this work show that both the MPS and SPH methods can be considered as good tools for fluid simulation.
