Inviscid flows over a cylinder

چکیده
In this paper, we simulate steady inviscid flows over a cylinder using potential and stream functions, including entropy and vorticity corrections for incompressible, subsonic, transonic and supersonic flows. The present hierarchical formulation is equivalent to Euler equations satisfying conservation of mass, momentum and energy. Standard numerical schemes and iterative algorithms are used for the mixed type potential (or stream function) equation and for the convection equations of entropy and vorticity augmented with the proper artificial dissipation necessary for stability of computations. Typical results for a cylinder in uniform and shear flows are presented and the merits of the present approach are briefly discussed. 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. Keyword: Inviscid flows

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...
متن کاملA Composite Finite Difference Scheme for Subsonic Transonic Flows (RESEARCH NOTE).
This paper presents a simple and computationally-efficient algorithm for solving steady two-dimensional subsonic and transonic compressible flow over an airfoil. This work uses an interactive viscous-inviscid solution by incorporating the viscous effects in a thin shear-layer. Boundary-layer approximation reduces the Navier-Stokes equations to a parabolic set of coupled, non-linear partial diff...
متن کاملOn the natural convective heat transfer from a cold horizontal cylinder over an adiabatic surface
A steady two-dimensional laminar free convection heat transfer from a cold horizontal isothermal cylinder located above an adiabatic floor is studied both experimentally and numerically. In the experimental measurements the effects of cylinder distance from horizontal floor to its diameter (L/D) on heat transfer coefficient is studied for Rayleigh numbers of 3×105 and 6×105. Computations are ma...
متن کاملMathematical Modeling of Potential Flow over a Rotating Cylinder (RESEARCH NOTE)
Potential flow over rotating cylinder is usually solved by the singularity method. However,in this paper a mathematical solution is presented for this problem by direct solution of the Laplace’sequation. Flow over the cylinder was considered non-viscous. Neumann and Dirichlet boundaryconditions were used on the solid surfaces and in the infinity, respectively. Because of non-viscous flow,the La...
متن کاملEffects Of Frequency Variation At Inlet Flow On The Vortex Shedding Frequency Behind A Circular Cylinder
In many applications the flow that past bluff bodies has frequency nature (oscillated) and it is not uniform. This kind of flow has effects on the formation of vortex shedding behind bluff bodies. In this paper the flow around a circular cylinder was numerically simulated. The effects of frequency variation at inlet flow on the vortex shedding frequency were investigated. The transient Two-Dime...
