tip leakage loss introduces major part of losses of the rotor in axial gas turbines. therefore, the rotor blade tip has a considerable effect on rotor efficiency. to understand the flow physics of the rotor tip leakage, we solve the flow field for different tip platforms (passive flow control) and by considering coolant tip injection (active flow control). various blade tip configurations such ...

we present a sixth-order non-polynomial spline method for the solutions of two-point nonlinear boundary value problem u(4)+f(x,u)=0, u(a)=α1, u''(a)= α2, u(b)= β1,u''(b)= β2, in off step points. numerical method of sixth-order with end conditions of the order 6 is derived. the convergence analysis of the method has been discussed. numerical examples are presented to illustra...

in this paper, we have tried to find a solution for quick transfer of nuclear wastes from pools of cool water to dry stores to reduce the environmental concerns and financial cost of burying atomic waste. therefore, the rate of heat transfer from atomic waste materials to the outer surface of the container should be increased. this can be achieved by covering the bottom of the pool space with c...

The vortex method for the initial-boundary value problems of the Euler equations for incompressible flow is studied. A boundary correction technique is introduced to generate second order accuracy. Convergence and error estimates are proved.

The convergence analysis of multigrid methods for boundary element equations arising from negative-order pseudo-differential operators is quite different from the usual finite element multigrid analysis for elliptic partial differential equations. In this paper, we study the convergence of geometric multigrid methods for solving large-scale, data-sparse boundary element equations arising from t...

This study examines the use of Picard and Newton iteration to solve the nonlinear, saturated ground water flow equation. Here, a simple three-node problem is used to demonstrate the convergence difficulties that can arise when solving the nonlinear, saturated ground water flow equation in both homogeneous and heterogeneous systems with and without nonlinear boundary conditions. For these cases,...

an analytical model for a coastal boundary current was used to investigate heat and salt budget of exchange flows in the persian gulf as a marginal sea. coastal boundary currents exchange heat and freshwater with the mosphere and the offshore waters. as heat and salinity fluxes caused by air-sea interaction and eddy activities, different temperature and salinity associated with boundary current...

We consider the convergence in the L norm, uniformly in time, of the Navier-Stokes equations with Dirichlet boundary conditions to the Euler equations with slip boundary conditions. We prove that if the Oleinik conditions of no back-flow in the trace of the Euler flow, and of a lower bound for the Navier-Stokes vorticity is assumed in a Kato-like boundary layer, then the inviscid limit holds.
