The flow field, velocity and pressure coefficient distribution of some 2-D ideal flows are presented. Conformal mapping is used to simulate two-dimensional ideal flow for a variety of complex internal and external configurations, based on the numerical integration of Schwarz-Christoffel transformation. The advantages of this method are simplicity and high accuracy. The method presented in this ...

A mathematical model for the prediction of internal recirculation of complex impinging stream reactors has been presented. The model constitutes a repetition of a series of ideal plug flow reactors and CSTR reactors with recirculation. The simplicity of the repeating motif allows for the derivation of an algebraic relation of the whole system using the Laplace transform. An impinging stream...

The classical panel method has been extensively used in external aerodynamics to calculate ideal flow fields around moving vehicles or stationary structures in unbounded domains. However, the panel method, as a somewhat simpler implementation of the boundary element method, has rarely been employed to solve problems in closed complex domains. This paper aims at filling this gap and discusses th...

exergy analysis of a system is a method for recognizing the value and type of system availability against surrounding environment. it also helps to find how macroscopic properties of the system change during a process. this analysis is based on first and second laws of thermodynamics. by exergy analysis proportion of each process in the internal availability transmission and the places of usefu...

The effect of equilibrium velocity shear on the resistive tearing instability has been systematically studied, using the boundary layer approach. Both the "constant-f/!" tearing mode, which has a growth rate that scales as S -3/5, and the "nonconstant-f/!" tearing mode [a' (as) -1/3» 1], which has a growth rate that scales as S -1/3, are analyzed in the presence of flow. Here S is the usual rat...

designing and optimization of the intake manifold is one of the important steps in the development of the internal combustion engines. in this paper, the flow inside the intake manifold of an internal combustion engine is investigated by numerical modeling. the convective flux models are adopted to simulate the unsteady compressible flow behavior. to solve the governing equations, for calculati...

Several aspects of the viewing situation affect the ability to determine heading from optical flow. These include the amount of depth variation and number of texture elements in the scene, the location and amount of the visual field stimulated, and the position of the focus of expansion within the stimulus. Without a quantification of the discrimination information provided by the stimuli prese...

The design of ideal internal dynamics (IID) generators, namely solving IID, is a fundamental problem, which is a key step to handle the nonminimum-phase output tracking problem. In this paper, for a class of unstable matrix differential equations, a new causal dynamic IID generator is proposed, whose parameters are partly chosen via H2/H∞ optimization. Compared with existing similar generators,...
