Computational Fluid Dynamics: An Introduction

An introduction to computational fluid dynamics - the finite volume method

Computational Fluid Dynamics using OpenCL – a Practical Introduction

The main aim of the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations is to reconstruct the reality of fluid motion and behaviour as accurately as possible in order to better understand the natural phenomena under specified conditions. Ideally, general solutions can also cover different scales and geometric configurations. Unfortunately, due to expensive algorithms, classic CFD codes most often re...

Hydrodynamic Improvement of underwater glider by Computational Fluid Dynamics method

Gliders are new marine vehicles which have research and military uses and they move by sequent diving and climbing. Suitable design of its main body and wings are important for the most advance velocity. hydrodynamic design variables are main body form, wings (cross section, dimensions, shape, longitudinal and vertical position) and hydrostatic parameters (static trim angle, amount of added for...

Computational fluctuating fluid dynamics

This paper describes the extension of a recently developed numerical solver for the Landau-Lifshitz Navier-Stokes (LLNS) equations to binary mixtures in three dimensions. The LLNS equations incorporate thermal fluctuations into macroscopic hydrodynamics by using white-noise fluxes. These stochastic PDEs are more complicated in three dimensions due to the tensorial form of the correlations for t...

Computational Fluid Dynamics

iii Preface There is fluid flow everywhere around us: air is flowing past airplanes, cars and buildings; water is flowing past ships, through rivers and harbours; oil is flowing through pipelines and in underground reservoirs; blood is flowing through our arteries. And the most important flow around us has not even been mentioned: the air flow in the atmosphere that determines our weather. It w...
