Improved convection cooling in steady channel flows
A fundamental problem in heat transfer is the convective cooling of the heated walls of a channel. We find steady two-dimensional (2D) flows that maximize the heat removed from fixed-temperature walls for a given rate of energy used to drive the flow, Pe (Pe is the Peclet number, a dimensionless flow speed). For parabolic (Poiseuille) flow, the heat transfer scales as Pe. Starting from Poiseuil...
متن کاملA parallelized, adaptive algorithm for multiphase flows in general geometries
We describe a parallelized, adaptive algorithm for multiphase flow in general geometries. Phase boundaries are considered sharp and their motion is computed using the coupled level set/volume-of-fluid (CLSVOF) method. General geometries are represented using a ‘‘Cartesian grid’’ approach; not a body-fitted approach. Our algorithm is designed to be ‘‘robust’’; in other words we compute flows in ...
متن کاملCooling Flows or Heating Flows?
It is now clear that AGN heat cooling flows, largely by driving winds. The winds may contain a relativistic component that generates powerful synchrotron radiation, but it is not clear that all winds do so. The spatial and temporal stability of the AGN/cooling flow interaction are discussed. Collimation of the winds probably provides spatial stability. Temporal stability may be possible only fo...
متن کاملConvection in Slab and Spheroidal Geometries
Three-dimensional numerical simulations of compressible turbulent thermally driven convection, in both slab and spheroidal geometries, are reviewed and analyzed in terms of velocity spectra and mixing length theory. The same ideal gas model is used in both geometries, and resulting ows are compared. The Piecewise-Parabolic Method (PPM), with either thermal conductivity or photospheric boundary ...
متن کاملApplication of the Schwarz-Christoffel Transformation in Solving Two-Dimensional Turbulent Flows in Complex Geometries
In this paper, two-dimensional turbulent flows in different and complex geometries are simulated by using an accurate grid generation method. In order to analyze the fluid flow, numerical solution of the continuity and Navier-Stokes equations are solved using CFD techniques. Considering the complexity of the physical geometry, conformal mapping is used to generate an orthogonal grid by means of...
