Transonic viscous inviscid interactions in narrow channels

Quasi-Simultaneous Viscous-Inviscid Interaction for Transonic Airfoil Flow

Following Prandtl, a viscous-inviscid interaction (VII) method is presented, where the flow field is divided into a viscous shear layer and an inviscid outer region. Their coupling is performed with the quasi-simultaneous approach, making use of an appropriately chosen interaction law. Firstly, an engineering example of transonic airfoil flow is presented, in which the interaction law is based ...

Application of viscous-inviscid interaction methods to transonic turbulent flows

Modelling of Transonic Flow in Very Narrow Channels

The study is focused on the mathematical modelling of leakage flow in very narrow channels. The problem is solved as a two-dimensional non-stationary turbulent compressible Newtonian fluid flow with ideal gas properties. The turbulent flow is assumed to be statistically steady and the mathematical model is described by the non-linear conservative system of the compressible Favre-averaged Navier...

Inviscid and Viscous Interactions in Subsonic Corner Flows

A flap can be used as a high-lift device, in which a downward deflection results in a gain in lift at a given geometric angle of attack. To characterize the aerodynamic performance of a deflected surface in compressible flows, the present study examines a naturally developed turbulent boundary layer past the convex and concave corners. This investigation involves the analysis of mean and fluctu...

Nondecaying Hydrodynamic Interactions along Narrow Channels.

Particle-particle interactions are of paramount importance in every multibody system as they determine the collective behavior and coupling strength. Many well-known interactions such as electrostatic, van der Waals, or screened Coulomb interactions, decay exponentially or with negative powers of the particle spacing r. Similarly, hydrodynamic interactions between particles undergoing Brownian ...
