Two-dimensional Channel (two-dimensional + channel)
Selected AbstractsHeat transfer characteristics in a two-dimensional channel with an oscillating wallHEAT TRANSFER - ASIAN RESEARCH (FORMERLY HEAT TRANSFER-JAPANESE RESEARCH), Issue 4 2001Masahide Nakamura Abstract Numerical calculations have been carried out for the laminar heat transfer in a two-dimensional channel bounded by a fixed wall and an oscillating wall. In this calculation, the moving boundary problem was transformed into a fixed boundary problem using the coordinate transformation method, and the fully implicit finite difference method was used to solve the mass, momentum, and energy conservation equations. The calculated results are summarized as follows: (i) The wall oscillation has an effect of enhancing the heat transfer and an effect of increasing the additional pressure loss. (ii) An optimum Strouhal number for the enhancement of heat transfer exists, and this optimum value is strongly affected by the amplitude of wall oscillation. © 2001 Scripta Technica, Heat Trans Asian Res, 30(4): 280,292, 2001 [source] Numerical simulation of vortical ideal fluid flow through curved channelINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR NUMERICAL METHODS IN FLUIDS, Issue 11 2003N. P. Moshkin Abstract A numerical algorithm to study the boundary-value problem in which the governing equations are the steady Euler equations and the vorticity is given on the inflow parts of the domain boundary is developed. The Euler equations are implemented in terms of the stream function and vorticity. An irregular physical domain is transformed into a rectangle in the computational domain and the Euler equations are rewritten with respect to a curvilinear co-ordinate system. The convergence of the finite-difference equations to the exact solution is shown experimentally for the test problems by comparing the computational results with the exact solutions on the sequence of grids. To find the pressure from the known vorticity and stream function, the Euler equations are utilized in the Gromeka,Lamb form. The numerical algorithm is illustrated with several examples of steady flow through a two-dimensional channel with curved walls. The analysis of calculations shows strong dependence of the pressure field on the vorticity given at the inflow parts of the boundary. Plots of the flow structure and isobars, for different geometries of channel and for different values of vorticity on entrance, are also presented. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. [source] On the validity of the perturbation approach for the flow inside weakly modulated channelsINTERNATIONAL JOURNAL FOR NUMERICAL METHODS IN FLUIDS, Issue 12 2002H. Zhou The equations governing the flow of a viscous fluid in a two-dimensional channel with weakly modulated walls have been solved using a perturbation approach, coupled to a variable-step finite-difference scheme. The solution is assumed to be a superposition of a mean and perturbed field. The perturbation results were compared to similar results from a classical finite-volume approach to quantify the error. The influence of the wall geometry and flow Reynolds number have extensively been investigated. It was found that an explicit relation exists between the critical Reynolds number, at which the wall flow separates, and the dimensionless amplitude and wavelength of the wall modulation. Comparison of the flow shows that the perturbation method requires much less computational effort without sacrificing accuracy. The differences in predicted flow is kept well around the order of the square of the dimensionless amplitude, the order to which the regular perturbation expansion of the flow variables is carried out.

The largest open window is made of corner-sharing CoO4 and PO3C tetrahedra, giving 16-membered rings of dimensions 9.677,(5) × 4.684,(4),Å2. There are two independent ethylenediphosphonate ligands, each lying about an inversion centre. [source] |
