Abstract

An original Immersed Boundary Method for solving moving body flows is proposed. This method couples (i) a Lagrangian Volume-of-Solid description of the solid object avoiding conservation issues and (ii) a robust implicit volume penalty forcing embedded in a low-Mach number projection method to account for the solid's impact on the fluid dynamics. A new composite velocity field is introduced to describe both solid and fluid domains in a single set of governing equations. The accuracy of the method has been assessed on several academic cases, involving stationary or moving bodies and with different mesh resolutions. The predicted forces on the solid are in excellent agreement with body-fitted reference cases. The system of equations is also proven to be fully mass conservative. Application of the method on a two-dimensional vertical axis turbine case shows a $30 %$ reduction in computational cost compared to a body-fitted method.

期刊介绍： The International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids publishes refereed papers describing significant developments in computational methods that are applicable to scientific and engineering problems in fluid mechanics, fluid dynamics, micro and bio fluidics, and fluid-structure interaction. Numerical methods for solving ancillary equations, such as transport and advection and diffusion, are also relevant. The Editors encourage contributions in the areas of multi-physics, multi-disciplinary and multi-scale problems involving fluid subsystems, verification and validation, uncertainty quantification, and model reduction. Numerical examples that illustrate the described methods or their accuracy are in general expected. Discussions of papers already in print are also considered. However, papers dealing strictly with applications of existing methods or dealing with areas of research that are not deemed to be cutting edge by the Editors will not be considered for review. The journal publishes full-length papers, which should normally be less than 25 journal pages in length. Two-part papers are discouraged unless considered necessary by the Editors.
