MHD flow past a circular cylinder using the immersed boundary method
(2010)
The immersed boundary method (IB hereafter) is an efficient numerical methodology for treating purely hydrodynamic flows in geometrically complicated flow-domains. Recently Grigoriadis et als. [1] proposed an extension of ...
Numerical simulations of turbulent flow in an eccentric annulus of unit eccentricity
(TSFP-9, 2015)
In this study, we perform Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of fully developed turbulent flows in eccentric annuli having different diameter ratios. Annuli of unit eccentricity, and diameter ratios of 0.2591 and 0.1395 ...
Three dimensional flow around a circular cylinder confined in a plane channel
(2011)
This paper presents two- and three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of the flow around a circular cylinder placed symmetrically in a plane channel. Results are presented in the Reynolds number range (based on the ...
On the transition to turbulence of a viscoplastic fluid past a confined cylinder: A numerical study
(2015)
Three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of a Bingham fluid flowing past a confined circular cylinder have been used in order to investigate viscoplastic effects in the wake-transition regime. The case of a cylinder ...
Three-dimensional numerical simulations of magnetohydrodynamic flow around a confined circular cylinder under low, moderate, and strong magnetic fields
(2013)
This paper presents three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of liquid metal flow around a circular cylinder placed symmetrically in a rectangular duct, under a wide range of magnetic field intensities. Results are ...
Effect of turbulent pulsating flow around a near-wall submerged cylinder on the potential motion of bed and suspended loads
(International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers, 2016)
In the present work, the pulsating flow around a submerged cylinder close to the impermeable seabed is examined by means of Large Eddy Simulations (LES). A Reynolds number equal to Re = 5000 is considered, based on the ...
Large Eddy Simulation of near-bed pipelines in oscillatory flow
(2018)
A series of unsteady, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the incompressible, oscillatory flow around a near-bed pipeline is presented. A flow at Reynolds number equal to Reαo=20,000 with respect to the oscillatory ...
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) Simulations of aerosol deposition in the lungs
(TSFP-9, 2015)
In the current study, Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are used to investigate the transport and deposition of inhaled aerosol particles (dp = 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10 μm) in a realistic geometry of the human airways under ...
The ASBM-SA turbulence closure: Taking advantage of structure-based modeling in current engineering CFD codes
(2015)
Structure-based turbulence models (SBM) carry information about the turbulence structure that is needed for the prediction of complex non-equilibrium flows. SBM have been successfully used to predict a number of canonical ...
Numerical simulations of turbulent flows within an infinite array of randomly placed cylinders
(2018)
We address the task of modelling numerically turbulent flows within random arrays of circular cylinders, relevant for several industrial and environmental applications. Numerical simulations are employed to model infinite ...
