چکیده

We consider low-Reynolds-number axisymmetric flow about two spheres using a novel, biharmonic stream function. This enables us to calculate analytically not only the forces, but also the dipole moments stresslets and pressure moments and the associated resistance functions. In this paper the basics properties of axisymmetric flow and the stream function are discussed. Explicit series expansions, obtained by separation in bispherical coordinates, will be presented in a follow-up paper.

Aixsymmetric Stagnation Point Flow of a Viscous Fluid on a Moving Cylinder with Time Dependent Axial Velocity

The unsteady viscous flow in the vicinity of an axisymmetric stagnation point of an infinite moving cylinder with time-dependent axial velocity is investigated. The impinging free stream is steady with a strain rate k. An exact solution of the Navier-Stokes equations is derived in this problem. A reduction of these equations is obtained by use of appropriate transformations. The general self-si...

A comparative study between two numerical solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations

The present study aimed to investigate two numerical solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. For this purpose, the mentioned flow equations were written in two different formulations, namely (i) velocity-pressure and (ii) vorticity-stream function formulations. Solution algorithms and boundary conditions were presented for both formulations and the efficiency of each formulation was investiga...
