Buoyant Convection Computed in a Vorticity, Stream-Function Formulation
Model equations describing large scale buoyant convection in an enclosure are formulated with the vorticity and stream function as dependent variables. The mathematical model, based on earlier work of the authors, is unique in two respects. First, it neglects viscous and thermal conductivity effects. Second the fluid is taken to be thermally expandable: large density variations are allowed whil...
متن کاملNatural vorticity boundary conditions on solid walls
We derive boundary conditions for the vorticity equation with solid wall boundaries. The formulation uses a Dirichlet condition for the normal component of vorticity, and Neumann type conditions for the tangential components. In a Galerkin (integral) formulation the tangential condition is natural, i.e. it is enforced by a right-hand side functional and does not impose a boundary constraint on ...
متن کاملSTREAM FUNCTION-VORTICITY DRIVEN CAVITY SOLUTION USING p FINITE ELEMENTS
Ahstract~~alculations for the two-dimensional driven cavity incompressible flow problem are presented. A p-type Jinite element scheme for the fully coupled stream function-vorticity formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations is used. Graded meshes are used to resolve vortex flow features and minimize the impact of comer singularities. Incremental continuation in the Reynolds number allows solut...
متن کاملConvergence of a finite element discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations in vorticity and stream function formulation
The standard discretization of the Stokes and Navier-Stokes équations in vorticity and stream function formulation by affine finite éléments is known for its bad convergence. We present here a modified discretization, we prove that the convergence is improved and we establish a priori error estimâtes. Résumé. Il est bien connu que la discrétisation usuelle des équations de Stokes et de Navier-S...
متن کاملBoundary Effects in Potential Vorticity Dynamics
Many aspects of geophysical flows can be described compactly in terms of potential vorticity dynamics. Since potential temperature can fluctuate at boundaries, however, the boundary conditions for potential vorticity dynamics are inhomogeneous, which complicates considerations of potential vorticity dynamics when boundary effects are dynamically significant. A formulation of potential vorticity...
