Long Time Computation of Two-Dimensional Vortex Sheet by Point Vortex Method
نویسندگان
چکیده
Two-dimensional vortex sheet suffers an unstable deformation from the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability and a curvature singularity which develops in a finite time. In this paper, long time computations of the two-dimensional vortex sheet are performed by a robust and efficient numerical method with high accuracy. To handle the rapid and non-uniform stretching of the interface, we adopt the adaptive point insertion and redistribution procedures. Computational results show highly refined structures of a complex and chaotic pattern for the vortex sheet up to very long time.

High Reynolds Viscous Flow Simulation Past the Elliptical Airfoil by Random Vortex Blob
In this paper, numerical simulation for a two-dimensional viscous and incompressible flow past the elliptical airfoil is presented by Random Vortex Blob (RVB). RVB is a numerical technique to solve the incompressible, two-dimensional and unsteady Navier-Stocks equations by converting them to rotational non-primitive formulations. In this method, the velocity vector at a certain point can be cal...
متن کاملNumerical Convergence of the Random Vortex Method for Complex Flows
Vortex methods rely principally on a discretization of the continuous two-dimensional time dependent vorticity eld into a large number of vortex \blobs", whose position and strength determine the underlying velocity eld. In this paper, the convergence of the random vortex method (RVM) for a complex ow is studied in function of three discretization parameters. Two of these parameters are related...
متن کاملComputation of Vortex Sheet Roll-up
In this article we shall review some recent developments for computing vortex sheet roll-up. A vortex sheet is an asymptotic model of a free shear layer in which the transition region between the two fluid streams is approximated by a surface across which the tangential velocity component is discontinuous. A common theme in fluid dynamics is that the vortex sheet model can be useful in understa...

Two 2-D aeroelastic models are presented here to determine instability boundary (flutter speed) and gust response of a typical section airfoil with degrees of freedom in pitch and plunge directions. To build these 2-D aeroelastic models, two different aerodynamic theories including Indicial Aerodynamic Theory and Vortex Lattice Method (VLM) have been employed. Also, a 3-D aeroelastic framework ...
متن کاملA Particle Method and Adaptive Treecodefor Vortex Sheet Motion inThree-Dimensional Flow
A particle method is presented for computing vortex sheet motion in three-dimensional flow. The particles representing the sheet are advected by a regularized Biot– Savart integral in which the exact singular kernel is replaced by the Rosenhead– Moore kernel. New particles are inserted to maintain resolution as the sheet rolls up. The particle velocities are evaluated by an adaptive treecode al...
