Vorticity generation mechanisms and correct boundary conditions for transverse jet simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
A three-dimensional vortex element method is developed to simulate the flow field of an incompressible transverse jet at high Reynolds number — in particular, to explore the response of large-scale vortical structures in the jet to actuation. Vorticity produced in the channel wall boundary layer interacts with the jet flow at the nozzle exit, producing both axial and azimuthal perturbations to the primary azimuthal jet vorticity. We derive vorticity boundary conditions that incorporate this interaction, providing a general framework for modeling vorticity associated with actuation. A comparison of centerplane trajectories for unforced transverse jets illustrates the effect of vorticity boundary conditions on the jet near field.

Vorticity formulation for an actuated jet in crossflow
The mixing properties of a transverse jet are important to a variety of engineering applications. This study seeks to develop actuation strategies that manipulate the geometry and rate of mixing between jet and crossflow, based on a mechanistic understanding of vorticity structure and evolution. Previous studies have shown that vorticity from both the jet boundary layer and the channel wall bou...

متن کاملA Fast Immersed Boundary Fourier Pseudo-spectral Method for Simulation of the Incompressible Flows
Abstract The present paper is devoted to implementation of the immersed boundary technique into the Fourier pseudo-spectral solution of the vorticity-velocity formulation of the two-dimensional incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The immersed boundary conditions are implemented via direct modification of the convection and diffusion terms, and therefore, in contrast to some other similar ...

For implementation
 of the free surface boundary condition, a new subroutine has been introduced to an existing steady 3-D body fitted code. This code was previously written for steady flow simulation in closed ducts. The algorithm used in this subroutine reduces the instability problem according to the free surface wave generation. For code validation, it was applied to two different open c...
