Cusp-Ended Stagnation Zone. Flow around a Sphere

نویسنده

  • M. D. Todorov
چکیده

The classical Helmholtz problem is applied for modelling the axisymmetric inviscid cusp-ended separated flow around a sphere. Two coordinate systems are employed: polar for initial calculations and parabolic the latter being more suitable for investigation of infinitely long stagnation zones. Scaled coordinates are introduced and difference schemes for the free-stream equation and the Bernoulli integral are devised. The separation point is not initially prescribed and is defined iteratively. A separated flow with vanishing drag coefficient is obtained.

Finite-Difference Implementation of Inviscid Separated Flows with Infinitely-Long Cusp-Ended Stagnation Zone around Circular Cylinder

The classical Helmholtz problem is applied for modelling and numerical investigation of inviscid cusp-ended separated flow around circular cylinder. Two coordinate systems are used: polar for initial calculations and parabolic as topologically most suited for infinite stagnation zone. Scaling by the shape of the unknown free line renders the problem to computational domain with fixed boundaries...

Unsteady Free Convection from a Sphere in a Porous Medium with Variable Surface Temperature

In this paper a transient free convection flow around a sphere with variable surface temperature and embedded in a porous medium has been considered. The temperature of the sphere is suddenly raised and subsequently maintained at values that varies with position on surface. The method of asymptotic expansions is applied for small Rayleigh numbers and then a finite-difference scheme is used to s...

Mixed Convection Boundary Layer Flow near the Lower Stagnation Point of a Solid Sphere with Newtonian Heating

The steady mixed convection boundary layer flow near the lower stagnation point of a solid sphere, generated by Newtonian heating in which the heat transfer from the surface is proportional to the local surface temperature, is considered in this study. The governing boundary layer equations are first transformed into a system of non-dimensional equations via the non-dimensional variables, and t...

Numerical Simulation of Steady State Three-Dimensional Groundwater Flow Near Lakes

Numerical simulation of threedimensional groundwater flow near lakes shows that the continuity of the boundary encompassing the local groundwater flow system associated with a lake is the key to understanding the interaction of a lake with the groundwater system. The continuity of the boundary can be determined by the presence of a stagnation zone coinciding with the side of the lake nearest th...
