Control of a transitional laminar separation bubble using steady and unsteady 2D and 3D Tollmien-Schlichting (TS) like boundary-layer disturbances is investigated by means of direct numerical simulations. The specific influence of different disturbance modes which allow an effective reduction of the reverse-flow region is illustrated. It is shown that unsteady 2D or 3D control is more efficient...

This study investigated the performance and aeroelastic characteristics of a wind turbine blade based on strongly coupled approach (two-way fluid structure interaction) to simulate the transient FSI1 responses of HAWT2. Aerodynamic response was obtained by 3D CFD-URANS approach and structural response was obtained by 3D Finite element method. Aeroelastic responses of the blade were obtained by ...

background: numerical study of angulation effects of renal arteries on blood flow has been of great interest for many researchers. objective: this paper aims at numerically determining the angulation effects of stenosed renal arteries on blood flow velocity and renal mass flow. method: an anatomically realistic model of abdominal aorta and renal arteries is reconstructed from ct-scan images and...

Keywords: POD reduced order model 3D flows Finite element Unstructured mesh Numerical simulation a b s t r a c t A new scheme for implementing a reduced order model for complex mesh-based numerical models (e.g. finite element unstructured mesh models), is presented. The matrix and source term vector of the full model are projected onto the reduced bases. The proper orthogonal decomposition (POD...

Due to improvements in computational resources, interest has recently increased in using implicit scheme for solving flow equations on 3D unstructured grids. However, most of the implicit schemes produce greater numerical diffusion error than their corresponding explicit schemes. This stems from the fact that in linearizing implicit fluxes, it is conventional to replace the Jacobian matrix in t...
