An Unstructured hp Finite-Element Schemefor Fluid Flow and Heat Transferin Moving Domains
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents the formulation, validation, and application of a spectral/hp algorithm for numerical solution of the Navier–Stokes and heat/scalar transport equations in arbitrarily moving complex geometries. The new spectral element algorithm is based on the arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian formulation and utilizes modal expansion of Jacobi polynomials in mixed triangular and quadrilateral elements in two dimensions. Time integration is performed by stiffly stable schemes and can deliver up to third-order time accuracy for transient problems. Test cases with sufficiently smooth solutions demonstrate spectral convergence and low phase/dissipation error. Preliminary simulation results for micro-mixers and micro-heat spreaders are also presented. c © 2001 Elsevier Science

Solution of Thermo-Fluid problems in Bounded Domains via the Numerical Panel Method
The classical panel method has been extensively used in external aerodynamics to calculate ideal flow fields around moving vehicles or stationary structures in unbounded domains. However, the panel method, as a somewhat simpler implementation of the boundary element method, has rarely been employed to solve problems in closed complex domains. This paper aims at filling this gap and discusses th...
متن کاملHeat generation and radiation effects on steady MHD free convection flow of micropolar fluid past a moving surface
This paper was concerned with studying the magnetohydrodynamic steady laminar free convection flow of a micropolar fluid past a continuously moving surface in the presence of heat generation and thermal radiation. Similarity transformation was employed to transform the governing partial differential equations into ordinary ones, which were then solved numerically using the finite element method...

Effect of time dependent normal transpiration on the problem of unsteady viscous flow and heat transfer in the vicinity of an axisymmetric stagnation point of an infinite circular cylinder moving simultaneously with time-depended angular and axial velocities and with time-dependent wall temperature or wall heat flux are investigated. The impinging free stream is steady with a strain rate . A re...
متن کاملAnalytical and numerical investigation of heat and mass transfer effects on magnetohydrodynamic natural convective flow past a vertical porous plate
The aim of this investigation is to study the effect of hall current on an unsteady natural convective flow of a viscous, incompressible, electrically conducting optically thick radiating fluid past a vertical porous plate in the presence of a uniform transverse magnetic field. The Rosseland diffusion approximation is used to describe the radiative heat flux in the energy equation. Analytical a...
متن کاملCharacterization of unsteady double-diffusive mixed convection flow with soret and dufour effects in a square enclosure with top moving lid
The present study considers the numerical examination of an unsteady thermo-solutal mixed convection when the extra mass and heat diffusions, called as Soret and Dufour effects, were not neglected. The numerical simulations were performed in a lid-driven cavity, where the horizontal walls were kept in constant temperatures and concentrations. The vertical walls were well insulated. A finite vol...
