Numerical Solution of 2-Dimensional Flows through Butterfly Valve Using Overset Grid Technique.

An overset-grid method for 3D unsteady incompressible flows

A composite-grid numerical method is developed for simulating unsteady, three-dimensional (3D), incompressible flows in complex geometries. The governing equations are solved using a second-order accurate, finite-volume method based on the dual time-stepping artificial compressibility approach. Overset grids are employed to discretize arbitrarily complex geometries, and a new interface algorith...

A Solution Adaptive Structured/Unstructured Overset Grid Flow Solver with Applications to Helicopter Rotor Flows

This paper summarizes a method that solves both the three dimensional thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations and the Euler equations using overset structured and solution adaptive unstructured grids with applications to helicopter rotor fiowfields. The overset structured grids use an implicit finite-difference method to solve the thin-layer Navier-Stokes/Euler equations while the unstructured grid ...

Toward Wall Modeling in Cartesian Grid Solver Using Overset Grid Technique for Ship Hydrodynamics

A Cartesian grid solver is coupled with an orthogonal curvilinear grid solver using overset grid interpolation and a coupled pressure Poisson solver. It aims at resolving the boundary layer on the body surface effectively. SUGGAR code, an overset grid assembly program, provides overset grid information of a Cartesian background grid and a thin orthogonal body-fitted grid to resolve the boundary...

numerical investigation of two cylinders passing each other, using overset grid method

in this paper, the interactions of flow over two circular or rectangular cylinders, passing by each other, have been investigated, using overset grids method. two-dimensional incompressible governing fluid flow equations are solved using finite volume method. in this research, several interpolation methods have been tested to transfer data between grids. one of them called mass flux base interp...
