Numerical simulation of shock tube generated vortex: effect of numerics

Vortices generated at the open end of a planar shock tube are numerically simulated using the AUSM+ scheme. This scheme is known to have low numerical dissipation and therefore is suitable for capturing unsteady vortex motion. However, this low numerical dissipation can also cause oscillations in the vorticity field. Numerical experiments presented here highlight the effect of numerical dissipation on the simulated vortex, as well as the role played by turbulence models. Two turbulence models – the shear-stress-transport (SST) and its modified version for unsteady flows (SST-SAS) – are employed to observe the effect of including turbulence models in such complex flows where the vortex has an embedded shock.     

Modelling of inflow-conditions for vortex particle methods to simulate atmospheric turbulence and its induced aerodynamic admittance on line-like bluff bodies

ABSTRACT

This paper presents a novel method for the simulation of aerodynamic admittance of turbulent wind on bluff line-like structures using a pseudo 3D model of Vortex Particle Method (VPM). The method is a computationally efficient extension of the 2D VPM, where a coupled set of simulation slices accounts for the 3D nature of the oncoming wind flow. Pre-computed vortex particles are seeded in each of the parallel 2D simulation slices in order to model the turbulent velocity perturbations. Here, the modelling of the inflow seeding particles is enhanced, reducing the computational cost and allowing extendibility into quasi 3D domain. This a priori computation of the seeding vortex particles is based on modelling the atmospheric turbulence characteristics. The method is applied to simulate turbulent flow around an infinitesimally thin flat-plate, to asses its validity at the viscous-rotational boundary layer, which is important for accurate fluid-structure Interaction simulations. Furthermore, sensitivity analysis to different attributes is assessed     

Self-Trapping in Discrete Nonlinear Schrdinger Equation with Next-Nearest Neighbor Interaction

The dynamical self-trapping of an excitation propagating on one-dimensional of different sizes with nextnearest neighbor (NNN) interaction is studied by means of an explicit fourth order symplectic integrator. Using localized initial conditions, the time-averaged occupation probability of the initial site is investigated which is a function of the degree of nonlinearity and the linear coupling strengths. The self-trapping transition occurs at larger values of the nonlinearity parameter as the NNN coupling strength of the lattice increases for fixed size. Furthermore, given NNN coupling strength, the self-trapping properties for different sizes are considered which are some different from the case with general nearest neighbor (NN) interaction.     

Two new discrete integrable systems

In this paper,we focus on the construction of new(1+1)-dimensional discrete integrable systems according to a subalgebra of loop algebra A 1.By designing two new(1+1)-dimensional discrete spectral problems,two new discrete integrable systems are obtained,namely,a 2-field lattice hierarchy and a 3-field lattice hierarchy.When deriving the two new discrete integrable systems,we find the generalized relativistic Toda lattice hierarchy and the generalized modified Toda lattice hierarchy.Moreover,we also obtain the Hamiltonian structures of the two lattice hierarchies by means of the discrete trace identity.

 在工程应用中,温度计套管因共振导致断裂问题日益受到重视,相关的讨论也很多,但多局限于对共振频率的计算与评估,缺乏对共振情况下和非共振情况下温度计套管的受力分析和研究,没有一个综合的解决方案.针对这一现状,根据ASME PTC19.3 TW-2010提供的准则,通过对温度计套管振动频率、静态应力和动态应力的分析,建立了相应的极限限制条件,提出了温度计套管的应力分析和断裂评估的工程应用设计方法.从设计资料准备到计算评估等给出具体的设计步骤,并结合计算实例,介绍了这个方法的具体应用.这种方法可以使温度计套管从本质上避免共振折断.     

Numerical simulation of trajectory and deformation of bubble in tip vortex

According to the behaviors of a bubble in the ship wake flow,the numerical simulation is divided into two stages,quasi-spherical motion and non-spherical motion,based on whether the bubble is captured by the vortex or not.The one-way coupled particle tracking method(PTM) and the boundary element method(BEM) are adopted to simulate these two stages,respectively.Meanwhile,the initial condition of the second stage is taken as the output of the first one,and the entire simulation is connected and completed.Based on the numerical results and the published experimental data,the cavitation inception is studied,and the wake bubble is tracked.Besides,the split of the bubble captured by the vortex and the following sub-bubbles are simulated,including motion,deformation,and collapse.The results provide some insights into the control on wake bubbles and optimization of the wake flow.     

Interstitial vortex in superconducting film with periodic hole arrays

The response of superconducting Nb films with a diluted triangular and square array of holes to a perpendicular magnetic field are investigated.Due to small edge-to-edge separation of the holes,the patterned films are similar to multi-connected superconducting islands.Two regions in the magnetoresistance R(H) curves can be identified according to the field intervals of the resistance minima.Moreover,in between these two regions,variation of the minima spacing was observed.Our results provide strong evidence of the coexistence of interstitial vortices in the islands and fluxoids in the holes.     

Wigner function and the entanglement of quantized Bessel—Gaussian vortex state of quantized radiation field

A new kind of quantum non-Gaussian state with vortex structure, termed Bessel-Gaussian vortex state, is constructed, which is an eigenstate of sum of squared annihilation operators a² + b². The Wigner function of the quantum vortex state is derived and exhibits negativity which is an indication of nonclassicality. It is also found that quantized vortex state is always in entanglement. And a scheme for generating such quantized vortex states is proposed.
