High resolution algorithms for the Navier Stokes equations for generalized descretizationsMitchell, Curtis Randall 20 October 2005 (has links)
Accurate finite volume solution algorithms for the two dimensional Navier Stokes equations and the three dimensional Euler equations for both structured and unstructured grid topologies are presented. Results for two dimensional quadrilateral and triangular elements and three dimensional tetrahedral elements will be provided. Fundamental to the solution algorithm is a technique for generating multidimensional polynomials which model the spatial variation of the flow variables. Cell averaged data is used to reconstruct pointwise distributions of the dependent variables. The reconstruction errors are evaluated on triangular meshes. The implementation of the algorithm is unique in that three reconstructions are performed for each cell face in the domain. Two of the reconstructions are used to evaluate the inviscid fluxes and correspond to the right and left interface states needed for the solution of a Riemann problem. The third reconstruction is used to evaluate the viscous fluxes. The gradient terms that appear in the viscous fluxes are formed by simply differentiating the polynomial. By selecting the appropriate cell control volumes, centered, upwind and upwind-biased stencils are possible. Numerical calculations in two dimensions include solutions to elliptic boundary value problems, Ringleb’s flow, an inviscid shock reflection, a flat plate boundary layer, and a shock induced separation over a flat plate. Three dimensional results include the ONERA M6 wing. All of the unstructured grids were generated using an advancing front mesh generation procedure. Modifications to the three dimensional grid generator were necessary to discretize the surface grids for bodies with high curvature. In addition, mesh refinement algorithms were implemented to improve the surface grid integrity. Examples studied include a Glasair fuselage, High Speed Civil Transport, and the ONERA M6 wing. The role of reconstruction as applied to adaptive remeshing is discussed and a new first order error estimator is presented. Numerical examples of the remeshing procedure include both smooth and discontinuous flows. / Ph. D.

Finite element analysis of high-speed flows with application to the ram accelerator concept.Brueckner, Frank Peter. January 1991 (has links)
A Petrov-Galerkin method for the solution of the compressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations is presented. The method is based on the introduction of an anisotropic balancing diffusion in the local direction of the propogation of the scalar variables. The direction in which the diffusion is added and its magnitude are automatically calculated locally using a criterion that is optimal for one-dimensional transport equations. Algorithms are developed using bilinear quadrilateral and linear triangular elements. The triangular elements are used in conjunction with an adaptive scheme using unstructured meshes. Several applications are presented that show the exceptional stability and accuracy of the method, including the ram accelerator concept for the acceleration of projectiles to ultrahigh velocities. Both two-dimensional and axisymmetric models are employed to evaluate multiple projectile configurations and flow conditions.

An assessment of renormalization methods in the statistical theory of isotropic turbulenceKiyani, Khurom January 2005 (has links)
For the latter half of the last century renormalization methods have played an important part in tackling problems in fundamental physics and in providing a deeper understanding of systems with many interacting scales or degrees of freedom with strong coupling. The study of turbulence is no exception, and this thesis presents an investigation of renormalization techniques available in the study of the statistical theory of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence. The thesis consists of two parts which assess the two main renormalization approaches available in modeling turbulence. In particular we will be focusing on the renormalization procedures developed by McComb and others. The first part of this thesis will discuss Renormalization Group (RG) approaches to turbulence, with a focus on applications to reduce the degrees of freedom in a large-eddy simulation. The RG methods as applied to classical dynamical systems will be reviewed in the context of the Navier-Stokes equations describing fluid flow. This will be followed by introducing a functional based formalism of a conditional average first introduced by McComb, Roberts and Watt [Phys. Rev A 45, 3507 (1992)] as a tool for averaging out degrees of freedom needed in an RG calculation. This conditional average is then used in a formal RG calculation applied to the Navier-Stokes equations, originally done by McComb and Watt [Phys. Rev. A 46, 4797 (1992)], and later revised by Mc- Comb and Johnston [Physica A 292, 346 (2001)]. A correction to the summing of the time-integral detailed in the latter work is shown to introduce an extra viscous life-time term to the denominator of the increment to the renormalized viscosity and is shown to have a negligible effect in the numerical calculations. We follow this study by outlining some problems with the previous approach. In particular it is shown that a cross-term representing the interaction between high and low wavenumber modes which was neglected in the previous studies on the grounds that it does not contribute to energy dissipation, does in fact contribute significantly. A heuristic method is then put forward to include the effects of this term in the RG calculation. This leads to results which agree qualitatively with numerical calculations of eddy-viscosities. We finish this part of the thesis with an application of the RG method to the modeling of a passive scalar advected by a turbulent velocity field. The second part of this thesis will begin by reviewing Eulerian renormalized perturbation theory attempts in closing the infinite moment hierarchy introduced by averaging the Navier-Stokes equations. This is followed by presenting a new formulation of the local energy transfer theory (LET) of McComb et. al. [J. Fluid Mech. 245, 279 (1992)] which resolves some problems of previous derivations. In particular we show by the introduction of time-ordering that some previous problems with the exponential representation of the correlator can be overcome. Furthermore, we show that the singularity in the LET propagator equation cancels by way of a counter-term. We end this study by introducing a single-time Markovian closure based on LET which, unlike other Markovian closures, does not rely on any arbitrary parameters being introduced in the theory.

The adomian decomposition method applied to blood flow through arteries in the presence of a magnetic fieldUngani, Tendani Patrick 06 May 2015 (has links)
A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Science, University of the Witwatersrand, Johannesburg, in fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Master of Science. February 16, 2015. / The Adomian decomposition method is an effective procedure for the
analytical solution of a wide class of dynamical systems without linearization
or weak nonlinearity assumptions, closure approximations, perturbation
theory, or restrictive assumptions on stochasticity. Our aim here is to apply
the Adomian decomposition method to steady two-dimensional blood
flow
through a constricted artery in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic
field. Blood
flow is the study of measuring blood pressure and determining
flow through arteries. Blood
flow is assumed to be Newtonian and is governed
by the equation of continuity and the momentum balanced equation (which
are known as the Navier-Stokes equations). This model is consistent with
the principles of ferro-hydrodynamics and magnetohydrodynamics and takes
into account both magnetization and electrical conductivity of blood. We
apply the Adomian decomposition method to the equations governing blood
flow through arteries in the presence of an external transverse magnetic field.
The results show that the e ect of a uniform external transverse magnetic
field applied to blood
flow through arteries favors the physiological condition
of blood. The motion of blood in stenosed arteries can be regulated by
applying a magnetic field externally and increasing/decreasing the intensity
of the applied field.

Viscous conservation laws and boundary layers. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2008 (has links)
In chapter 1, we focus on the noncharacteristic boundary layers for the parabolic regularization of quasi-linear hyperbolic problems, where the viscosity matrix is positive definite, with the zero Dirichlet boundary conditions. We adapt the method developed by Grenier and Gues [?] where the center-stable manifold theorem is used to prove the existence and exponential decay property of the leading boundary layer profile under suitable conditions on the boundary x = 0. With this boundary condition we prove the well-posedness of the initial boundary value problem of the inviscid flow. Then we prove the stability of the boundary layer by an energy estimate, where exponential decay property of the boundary layer profile plays an important role. Finally, we can specify the limit of the viscous solutions to the corresponding inviscid solution. / In chapter 2, we consider the noncharacteristic one-dimensional compressible full Navier-Stokes equations for the ideal gas with outflow boundary condition on the velocity and suitable initial conditions, which make all the three characteristics to the corresponding Euler equations negative up to some local time, especially on the boundary. By the aymptotic analysis, we derive an algebraic-differential equation for the leading boundary layer functions. The center-stable manifold theorem helps to prove the existence and exponential decay property of the leading boundary layer function. The outflow boundary condition makes it possible to estimate the normal derivatives. Combining this with the tangential derivative estimate, we can recover the H1 estimate of the error term. Thus we establish the stability of the boundary layers which satisfy an algebraic-differential equation in this case. With this stability result, we obtain the relation between the solutions to Navier-Stokes and Euler equations. / In chapter 3, we concentrate on the existence and nonlinear stability of the totally characteristic boundary layer for the quasi-linear equations with positive definite viscosity matrix under the assumption that the boundary matrix vanishes identically on the boundary x = 0. We carry out a weighted estimate to the boundary layer equations---Prandtl type equations to get the regularity and the far field behavior of the solutions. This allows us to perform a weighted energy estimate for the error equation to prove the stability of the boundary layers. The stability result finally implies the asymptotic limit of the viscous solutions. / In this thesis we study three kinds of asymptotic limiting behavior of the solutions to the initial boundary value problem of one-dimensional quasilinear equations with viscosity by carrying out the boundary layer analysis. / Wang, Jing. / Adviser: Zhouping Xin. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 71-01, Section: B, page: 0407. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2008. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 107-112). / Electronic reproduction.

On the motion of viscous compressible flows. / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collectionJanuary 2010 (has links)
Finally, we prove that weak solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations with the Navier boundary condition stabilize to static equilibrium states under a fair condition. / First, we show that the most general class of weak solutions to one-dimensional full compressible Navier-Stokes equations do not exhibit vacuum states in a finite time provided that no vacuum is present initially with the minimum physical assumptions on the data. Moreover, two initially non interacting vacuum regions will never meet each other in the future. / Secondly, we construct the local classical solutions to the compressible Navier-Stokes equations for initial vacuum far fields. In this case, we describe the blow-up phenomena of two-dimensional compact support smooth spherically symmetric solutions. When the far field of the initial state is away from vacuum, we obtain the global classical solutions and show the large time blow-up behavior of the gradient of the density. / This thesis deals with some important problems of compressible Navier-Stokes equations, including the well-posedness of the Cauchy problem, the regularity of the weak solutions constructed by Lions and Feireisl, and the dynamics of vacuum states, etc.. / Luo, Zhen. / Adviser: Zhouping Xin. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 72-04, Section: B, page: . / Thesis (Ph.D.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2010. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 152-161). / Electronic reproduction.
