Calculation of the Flow around a High-Pressure Turbine Blade with Cooling-Jet Injection from Slots at the Leading Edge

A fully vectorised, basically three-dimensional finite-volume multi-block method for flows with complex boundaries is applied in a stripped-down two-dimensional version for the investigation of the flow field in the leading-edge region of a high-pressure turbine blade with slot cooling-jet injection. The calculation results are compared with experiments and the numerical results of other investigators. The present method yields excellent agreement with the experiments for the isentropic Mach number distributions on the blade surface. All numerical results for the velocity field were found to be in very good agreement with each other and with experiments on the suction side, while the agreement is not as good on the pressure side.     

Modelling of Advection-Dominated Transport in a Porous Column with a Time-Decaying Flow Field

This paper examines the problem of the advective-dispersive movement of a non-decaying, inert chemical dye solution through the pore space of a fluid saturated porous column. The objective of the paper is to present a complete study of the one-dimensional advective-dispersive transport problem by considering certain analytical solutions, experimental results and their comparisons with specific computational simulations. Dye concentrations obtained by means of an image processing method are used in conjunction with an analytical solution to identify the hydrodynamic dispersion coefficient that governs the advective-dispersive transport problem. The experimental results and identified parameters are also used to assess the computational estimates derived from several stabilized computational schemes available in the literature, for examining advection-dominated transport processes in porous media.     

Steady Film Flow of a Highly Viscous Heavy Fluid with Mass Supply

Asymptotic models of a thin layer of highly viscous heavy incompressible Newtonian fluid are constructed for steady axisymmetric (plane) flow on a curved rigid surface with distributed or point mass supply on a surface section near the axis (plane) of symmetry. Examples of analytical and numerical investigations of the free-surface shape and hydrodynamic-parameter fields are given. The models constructed are generalized for the case of a viscoplastic fluid and solutions which can be used for describing extrusive volcanic eruptions are obtained.     

Three-Dimensional Interaction of a Blunt Cone with a Hot Region in a Supersonic Flow in the Presence of Surface Injection

The problem of the interaction of a blunt cone placed at zero incidence in a supersonic flow with a spherical hot region in the incident flow is considered for the case in which the hot region center is displaced relative to the axis of symmetry of the body. Two cases are studied: (1) the interaction of temperature inhomogeneity with an impermeable conical surface and (2) interaction in the presence of intense surface injection localized on the spherical bluntness of the body. It is shown that strong surface injection considerably improves the flow pattern and the aerodynamic characteristics of the body.

Evolution of the Flow Field around a Circular Cylinder and a Sphere upon Instantaneous Start with a Supersonic Velocity

Evolution of the flow field around a circular cylinder and a sphere instantaneously starting with a constant supersonic velocity (M = 5 and Re = 10⁵) from the state at rest is studied by means of numerical integration of unsteady twodimensional Navier–Stokes equations.     

Effect of Gas Injection from the Surface of a Body on Its Interaction with a Temperature Inhomogeneity in a Supersonic Flow

The flow pattern in the shock layer and the aerodynamic characteristics of a hemisphere in unsteady axisymmetric interaction with a closed spherical hot-gas region embedded in the oncoming supersonic flow in the presence of intense injection of gas from the body surface into the shock layer are studied on the basis of the inviscid perfect gas model. Two cases are considered, namely, (1) when the radius of the permeable surface is greater than that of the temperature inhomogeneity and (2) when the injection is localized in the vicinity of the forward stagnation point and the permeable region is smaller the inhomogeneity.     

On the confinement of a viscous fluid by means of a feedback external field

In this work we consider a planar stationary flow of an incompressible viscous fluid in a semi-infinite strip governed by the standard Stokes system. We show how this fluid can be stopped at a finite distance from the entrance of the semi-infinite strip by means of a feedback source depending in a sublinear way on the velocity field. This localization effect is proved by reducing the problem to a non-linear biharmonic type one for which the localization of solutions is obtained through the application of an energy method, in the spirit of the monograph by S.N. Antontsev, J.I. Díaz and S.I. Shmarev (Energy Methods for Free Boundary Problems: Applications to Non-Linear PDEs and Fluid Mechanics, Birkäuser, Boston, 2002). Since the presence of the non-linear terms defined by the source is not standard in fluid mechanics literature, we give also some results about the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions for this problem.
