Identifying the Stationary Viscous Flows Around a Circular Cylinder at High Reynolds Numbers
We propose an approach to identifying the solutions of the steady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations for high Reynolds numbers. These cannot be obtained as initial-value problems for the unsteady system because of the loss of stability of the latter. Our approach consists in replacing the original steady-state problem for the Navier-Stokes equations by a boundary value problem for the Euler...
متن کاملDiscrete vortex simulation of the separated flow around a rotating circular cylinder at high Reynolds number
The separated flow around a rotating circular cylinder is investigated by the discrete vortex method combined with the boundary layer theory. The Keller Box method is used to solve the laminar boundary layer in order to determine the separation points on the upper and the lower sides of the rotating circular cylinder. The nascent vortices are then introduced near the separation points. A discre...
متن کاملPassive swimming in low-Reynolds-number flows.
The possibility of microscopic swimming by extraction of energy from an external flow is discussed, focusing on the migration of a simple trimer across a linear shear flow. The geometric properties of swimming, together with the possible generalization to the case of a vesicle, are analyzed. The mechanism of energy extraction from the flow appears to be the generalization to a discrete swimmer ...
متن کاملAsymptotic Exponents from Low-Reynolds-Number Flows
The high-order statistics of fluctuations in velocity gradients in the crossover range from the inertial to the Kolmogorov and sub-Kolmogorov scales are studied by direct numerical simulations (DNS) of homogeneous isotropic turbulence with vastly improved resolution. The derivative moments for orders 0 ≤ n ≤ 8 are represented well as powers of the Reynolds number, Re, in the range 380 ≤ Re ≤ 22...
متن کاملComplex magnetohydrodynamic low-Reynolds-number flows.
The interaction between electric currents and a magnetic field is used to produce body (Lorentz) forces in electrolyte solutions. By appropriate patterning of the electrodes, one can conveniently control the direction and magnitude of the electric currents and induce spatially and temporally complicated flow patterns. This capability is useful, not only for fundamental flow studies, but also fo...
