The solution of large deflection problem of thin circular plate by the method of composite expansion

In this paper, the method of composite expansion in perturbation theory is used for the solution of large deflection problem of thin circular plate. In this method. the outer field solution and the inner boundary layer solution are combined together to satisfy all the boundary conditions. In this paper, Hencky’s membrane solution is used for the first approximation in outer field solution, and then the second approximate solution is obtained. The inner boundary layer solution is found on the bases of boundary layer coondinate. In this paper, the reciprocal ratio of maximum deflection and thickness of the plate is used as the small parameter. The results of this paper improves quite a bit in comparison with the results obtained in 1948 by Chien Wei-zang.

Wake layer in a thermal turbulent boundary layer with pressure gradient

The open equations of thermal turbulent boundary layer subjected to pressure gradient have been analysed by method of matched asymptotic expansions at large Reynolds number. The flow is divided into outer wake layer and inner wall layer. The asymptotic expansions are matched by Millikan-Kolmogorov hypothesis. The temperature profile in overlap region yields composite law which reduce to log. law for moderate pressure gradient and inverse half power law for strong adverse pressure gradient. In case of a shallow thermal wake, the matching result of outer wake layer reduces to composite temperature defect law, which is more general than the classical log. law. The comparison of data for thermal boundary layer with strong adverse pressure gradient is also considered. Received on 26 May 1998     

Boundary layer development in a gas flow with stagnation enthalpy varying across the streamlines

We consider a laminar boundary layer for which the stagnation enthalpy specified in the initial section is variable with height. Such problems arise, for example, for bodies located in the wake behind another body, for hypersonic flow past slender blunted bodies (as a result of the large transverse entropy gradients in the highentropy layer), for stepwise variation of the temperature of a surface on which there is an already developed boundary layer, for sudden expansion of the boundary layer as a result of its flow past a corner of the surface, etc.Strictly, we should in such cases solve the boundary layer equations (if the longitudinal gradients are much smaller than the transverse) with the specified initial distribution of the quantities. However, from the physical point of view, the distributed region may be broken down into two regions, the near-wall boundary layer and an outer region which is a gas flow with constant velocity and the specified initial temperature profile, whose calculation yields the edge conditions for the boundary layer. The boundary between the regions is determined from the condition of adequately smooth matching of the solutions. This approach is much preferable to the first, since it permits avoiding (within the framework of boundary layer theory) the difficulties associated with the presence of a possible singularity at the initial point of the surface due to the discontinuity of the boundary conditions at this point, and also permits using conventional boundary layer theory if the effect of the viscosity in the outer region is not significant. However, this partition requires additional justifications of the possibility of independent determination of the solution in the outer region and the determination of the edge of the boundary layer, considered as the region of influence of the wetted surface. The boundary layer in a nonuniform flow has been considered in several works for a linear initial velocity or temperature profile [1–3].It should be noted that the linear initial enthalpy or velocity profiles for constant gas properties do not undergo changes under the influence of viscosity or thermal conductivity. Thus the fundamental characteristic features noted above which are associated with the presence of the two regions and their interaction in essence cannot be investigated using these examples.In this study we obtain and analyze the exact solutions of the equations of the compressible boundary layer for a power-law variation of the initial stagnation enthalpy profile as a function of the stream function for a constant initial velocity. Here it is shown that the influence of the boundary conditions at the wall are actually localized in the near-wall boundary layer, which is similar in dimensions to the conventional velocity or thermal boundary layers. In the region which is external with relation to this layer, in accordance with the physical picture described above, the solution coincides with the solution of the Cauchy problem for the heat conduction equation, which describes the development of the initial temperature profile in an infinite steady-state flow with constant velocity.It is shown that for the sufficiently smooth initial profiles which are of interest in practice the outer flow undergoes practically no changes until we reach the inner boundary layer, and it may be calculated using the perfect gas laws.

Méthode couplée CVFE/BE pour les calculs acoustiques en domaine non borné

A new method based on the flux conservation for acoustic computations in unbounded domain is presented. The domain is divided in outer and inner regions by a fictitious boundary. The inner problem is solved by a control volume finite element method while the outer flow is treated with a boundary element method. The coupling of the two sub-domains is performed using an appropriate expression for the outgoing fluxes satisfying the Sommerfeld condition. A two-dimensional configuration with a circular interface is considered to show that the method is effective. Results of this method are compared to an analytical solution and to results from the literature.     

A robust numerical method for flow through a pipe driven by an oscillating pressure gradient

The problem of periodic flow of an incompressible fluid through a pipe, which is driven by an oscillating pressure gradient (e.g. a reciprocating piston), is investigated in the case of a large Reynolds number. This process is described by a singularly perturbed parabolic equation with a periodic right‐hand side, where the singular perturbation parameter is the viscosity ν. The periodic solution of this problem is a solution of the Navier–Stokes equations with cylindrical symmetry. We are interested in constructing a parameter‐robust numerical method for this problem, i.e. a numerical method generating numerical approximations that converge uniformly with respect to the parameter ν and require a bounded time, independent of the value of ν, for their computation. Our method comprises a standard monotone discretization of the problem on non‐standard piecewise uniform meshes condensing in a neighbourhood of the boundary layer. The transition point between segments of the mesh with different step sizes is chosen in accordance with the behaviour of the analytic solution in the boundary layer region. In this paper we construct the numerical method and discuss the results of extensive numerical experiments, which show experimentally that the method is parameter‐robust.

Particle image velocimetry measurements of a shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction

Particle image velocimetry is used to investigate the interaction between an incident shock wave and a turbulent boundary layer at Mach 2.1. A particle response assessment establishes the fidelity of the tracer particles. The undisturbed boundary layer is characterized in detail. The mean velocity field of the interaction shows the incident and reflected shock wave pattern, as well as the boundary layer distortion. Significant reversed flow is measured instantaneously, although, on average no reversed flow is observed. The interaction instantaneously exhibits a multi-layered structure, namely, a high-velocity outer region and a low-velocity inner region. Flow turbulence shows the highest intensity in the region beneath the impingement of the incident shock wave. The turbulent fluctuations are found to be highly anisotropic, with the streamwise component dominating. A distinct streamwise-oriented region of relatively large kinematic Reynolds shear stress magnitude appears within the lower half of the redeveloping boundary layer. Boundary layer recovery towards initial equilibrium conditions appears to be a gradual process.

Statistics of Particle Accumulation in Spatially Developing Turbulent Boundary Layers

We present the results of a Direct Numerical Simulation of a particle-laden spatially developing turbulent boundary layer up to Re _θ ?=?2500. Two main features differentiate the behavior of inertial particles in a zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer from the more commonly studied case of a parallel channel flow. The first is the variation along the streamwise direction of the local dimensionless parameters defining the fluid-particle interactions. The second is the coexistence of an irrotational free-stream and a near-wall rotational turbulent flow. As concerns the first issue, an inner and an outer Stokes number can be defined using inner and outer flow units. The inner Stokes number governs the near-wall behavior similarly to the case of channel flow. To understand the effect of a laminar-turbulent interface, we examine the behavior of particles initially released in the free stream and show that they present a distinct behavior with respect to those directly injected inside the boundary layer. A region of minimum concentration occurs inside the turbulent boundary layer at about one displacement thickness from the wall. Its formation is due to the competition between two transport mechanisms: a relatively slow turbulent diffusion towards the buffer layer and a fast turbophoretic drift towards the wall.     

A bending quasi-front generated by an instantaneous impulse loading at the edge of a semi-infinite pre-stressed incompressible elastic plate

A refined membrane-like theory is used to describe bending of a semi-infinite pre-stressed incompressible elastic plate subjected to an instantaneous impulse loading at the edge. A far-field solution for the quasi-front is obtained by using the method of matched asymptotic expansions. A leading-order hyperbolic membrane equation is used for an outer problem, whereas a refined (singularly perturbed) membrane equation of an inner problem describes a boundary layer, which smoothes a discontinuity predicted by the outer problem at the wave front. The inner problem is then reduced to one-dimensional by an appropriate choice of inner coordinates, motivated by the wave front geometry. Using the inherent symmetry of the outer problem, a solution for the quasi-front is derived that is valid in a vicinity of the tip of the wave front. Pre-stress is shown to affect geometry and type of the generated quasi-front; in addition to a classical receding quasi-front the pre-stressed plate can support propagation of an advancing quasi-front. Possible responses may even feature both types of quasi-front at the same time, which is illustrated by numerical examples. The case of a so-called narrow quasi-front, associated with a possible degeneration of contribution of singular perturbation terms to the governing equation, is studied qualitatively.     

Solution of three-dimensional natural convection about a vertical square rod in a cylindrical enclosure

The problem of three-dimensional laminar natural convection in a vertical enclosure with an inner square rod is treated by a numerical method in boundary-fitted co-ordinates. The inner and outer cylinders are heated and cooled, respectively, to maintain different constant surface temperatures. The horizontal enclosure surfaces are maintained at adiabatic conditions. The Prandtl number is that of air, 0·703, and the Rayleigh numbers span the conduction, transition and boundary layer regimes of flow. The radius ratio is 1, and the aspect ratio (cylinder length divided by maximum annular gap) is 1. The results of the study provide data useful in the design and performance assessment of nuclear reactor spent fuel shipping casks.

Numerical investigation of a spatially developing turbulent natural convection boundary layer along a vertical heated plate

Large-eddy simulation (LES) on a spatially developing natural convection boundary layer along a vertical heated plate was conducted. The heat transfer rate, friction velocity, mean velocity and temperature, and second-order turbulent properties both in the wall-normal and the stream-wise direction showed reasonable agreement with the findings of past experiments. The spectrum of velocity and temperature fluctuation showed a -2/3-power decay slope and -2-power decay slope respectively. Quadrant analysis revealed the inclination on Q1 and Q3 in the Reynolds stress and turbulent heat flux, changing their contribution along the distance from the plate surface. Following the convention, we defined the threshold region where the stream-wise mean velocity takes local maximum, the inner layer which is closer to the plate than the threshold region, the outer layer which is farther to the plate than the threshold region. The space correlation of stream-wise velocity tilted the head toward the wall in the propagating direction in the outer layer; on the other hand, the correlated motion had little inclination in the threshold region. The time history of the second invariant of gradient tensor Q revealed that the vortex strength oscillates both in the inner and the outer layers in between the laminar and the transition region. In the turbulent region, the vortex was often dominant in the outer layer. Instantaneous three-dimensional visualization of Q revealed the existence of high-speed fluid parcels associated with arch-shape vortices. These results were considered as an intrinsic structure in the outer layer, which is symmetrical to the structure of canonical smooth/rough wall bounded layer flow in forced convection.     

Numerical simulation of viscous transonic flows over an airfoil

High Reynolds number viscous transonic flow is described based on an interaction of the potential outer flow with the boundary layer and wake. Following the procedure of Lighthill (1958), the solutions in these domains are matched to each other through boundary conditions. The solution to the complete problem is obtained iteratively through successive computations of the flows in the outer and inner domains. Both old and new algorithms are used for the iteration process and subsequent problem solution. Results are given for all the airfoils from the Experimental Data Base for Computer Program Assessment (AGARD-AR-138, 1979). A comparison of these results with experimental data shows the degree of agreement between these unbounded airfoil flow simulations and real transonic flow over the central part of a straight wing.

A similarity solution for the flow and heat transfer over a moving permeable flat plate in an external free stream: case of strong injection

The previous work of Bachok et al. (Heat Mass Transf. 47:1643–1649, 2011) on the forced convection heat transfer on an isothermal moving surface in an external free stream is extended to the case when fluid injection through the surface, characterized by the parameter γ, is large. The asymptotic solution derived in this limit shows that the boundary layer has a double region structure, with an inviscid inner region of thickness O(γ) and an outer shear layer. Some further aspects of the original problem not treated in Bachok et al. (Heat Mass Transf. 47:1643–1649, 2011) are discussed as well as the analogous problem for a constant surface heat flux, where relatively small injection rates are seen to give rise to large increases in the surface temperature.
