Modeling Turbulent Hydraulic Fracture Near a Free Surface
Motivated by observations of the subglacial drainage of water, we consider a hydraulic fracture problem in which the crack grows parallel to a free surface, subject to fully turbulent fluid flow. Using a hybrid Chebyshev=series-minimization numerical approach, we solve for the pressure profile, crack opening displacement, and crack growth rate for a crack that begins relatively short but eventu...
متن کاملHydraulic Fracture Propagation near a Natural Discontinuity
The trajectory of a hydraulically driven crack near natural fractures, faults, and inhomogeneities has been studied using the complex variable hypersingular boundary element technique. The crack trajectories are presented for the cases of an oblique and a steeply inclined fault. It has been demonstrated that natural fractures, faults, and other inhomogeneities generate unstable fracture conÞgur...
متن کاملModeling Turbulent Entrainment of Air at a Free Surface
Overview In free-surface flows the turbulence in the liquid may be sufficient to disturb the surface to the point of entraining air into the flow. This process is important, for example, in water treatment where air is needed to sustain microorganisms for water purification and in rivers and streams for sustaining a healthy fish population. Air entrainment is typically engineered into spillways...
متن کاملTHREE DIMENSIONAL MODELING OF TURBULENT FLOW WITH FREE SURFACE IN MOLD FILLING
In the present study a Finite Difference Method has been developed to model the transient incompressible turbulent free surface fluid flow. A single fluid has been selected for modeling of mold filling and The SOLA VOF 3D technique was modified to increase the accuracy of simulation of filling phenomena for shape castings. For modeling the turbulence phenomena k-e standard model was used. In or...
متن کاملAir Entrainment and Turbulence in Hydraulic Jumps: Free- Surface Fluctuations and Integral Turbulent Scales
An open channel flow can change from a supercritical to subcritical flow with a strong dissipative process: a hydraulic jump. Herein some new measurements of free-surface fluctuations next to the jump toe and integral turbulent scales in the roller are presented with a focus on turbulent hydraulic jumps with a marked roller. The results highlighted the fluctuating nature of the impingement peri...
