in the present work a two dimensional numerical investigation of steam flows in a turbine blade passage is performed. a finite volume approach has been used and the pressure–velocity coupling is resolved using the simple algorithm. the purpose of this paper is to find that one of the used turbulent models is better for this kind of studies. a structured mesh arrangement with boundary layer mesh...

sedimentation is one of the most important problems in harbors that results in considerable economic costs. harbor planforms affects the flow pattern in the harbor basin and consequently, plays an important role in sediment transport and sedimentation. in the present study, a two dimensional depth-averaged hydrodynamic and sediment transport model has been developed to investigate the effect of...

in this paper, a viscous flow simulation is presented using the lattice boltzmann equation (lbe). a finite volume approach is adapted to discretize the lbe on a cell-centered, arbitrary shaped, rectangular tessellation. the formulation includes upwind scheme and high order descretization schemes for the flux term and collision operator respectively. a consistent open and solid boundary treatmen...

risk-based assessment methods are commonly used at the contaminated sites by hydrocarbon pollutants. this paper presents the results of a two-dimensional finite volume model of reactive transport of biodegradable btex which have been developed for the saturated zone of an unconfined aquifer in the pump station area of tehran oil refinery, iran. the model governing equations were numerically sol...

unsteady flow through non - homogeneous and anisotropic porous media can be modeled by a partial differential equation.' this-equation cannot be solved analytically. hence, numerical methods. such as the finite element and the finite difference methods might be employed. in this study a mathematical model has been developed using the fully implicit finite difference method with control vol...

phytoplankton and zooplankton concentrations in pishin reservoir are predicted employing a three-dimensional numerical model in this paper. modeling is performed using a numerical model based on mass transport equation. advection, diffusion and source/sink processes are considered as separate subroutines for predicting the concentrations of phytoplankton and zooplankton in the reservoir. finit...
