Width Effects in Transonic Flow over a Rectangular Cavity

A Flow-resonant Model of Transonic Laminar Open Cavity Instability

A transonic air stream flowing over a rectangular cavity or enclosure is unsteady. At certain flow conditions, large scale oscillations develop in the shear layer which, for an open cavity, spans across the whole enclosure. The convected shear layer instabilities interact with the cavity geometry, they generate resonance, and induce large amplitude wall pressure fluctuations, aerodynamic pressu...

Numerical Simulations of Transonic Flow Acoustic Resonance in Cavity

Direct numerical simulations are used to investigate transonic flow acoustic resonance in an open cavity. The numerical scheme minimizes the errors due to dispersion and dissipation of acoustic waves, and resolves both the unsteady flow and radiated acoustic field. Implicit solution of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations is obtained using a compact high-order spacial differencing scheme, c...

Radiation Effects on Convective Heat and Mass Transfer Flow in a Rectangular Cavity

In this paper we analyze the combine influence of radiation and dissipation on the convective heat and mass transfer flow of a viscous fluid through a porous medium in a rectangular cavity using Darcy model. Making use of the incompressibility the governing non-linear coupled equations for the momentum, energy and diffusion are derived in terms of the non-dimensional stream function, temperatur...

Mixed Convection Flow in a Rectangular Ventilated Cavity with a Heat Conducting Solid Circular Cylinder at the Center

A numerical investigation has been carried out for mixed convection flow in a rectangularventilated cavity with a heat conducting solid circular cylinder at the center. Forced convection flowconditions were imposed by providing an inlet at the bottom of the left wall and an outlet vent at the topto the other sidewall. In this paper, the effect of cavity aspect ratio as well as the mixed convect...
