Adaptation to a finite domain requires a new approach to the boundary conditions at solid boundaries in the context of the Arakawa C grid. In this paper, the boundary condition at the vertical walls is taken to be vanishing of the normal derivative of the tangential velocity. This gives zero potential vorticity at the boundary, and is consistent with the material conservation of the potential vorticity. This condition, coupled to symmetric boundary conditions for the wave height arising from a reduced version of the evolution equations at boundaries, leads to an extension of the class of staggered C-grid Poisson-bracket schemes to interior flows with solid boundaries. The scheme is implemented, shown to preserve Casimirs, and applied to a range of problems in shallow water hydrodynamics including interaction of travelling hydraulic jumps at resonance, and X-type soliton interactions over a variable bottom surface. This structure-preserving scheme provides a robust building block for long-time simulation of floating ocean wave energy extractors.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":287,"journal":{"name":"Computers & Fluids","volume":"280 ","pages":"Article 106353"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-06-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0045793024001853/pdfft?md5=7d3ad02036b53c631d85746e954d56af&pid=1-s2.0-S0045793024001853-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141541917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that the straightforward enforcement of entropy constraints in the filter yields poor results around species interfaces and propose an adaptive switch for the entropy bounds based on the convergence properties of the pressure field which drastically improves its performance for multi-species flows. The proposed approach is shown in a variety of numerical experiments applied to the multi-species Euler and Navier–Stokes equations computed on unstructured grids, ranging from shock-fluid interaction problems to three-dimensional viscous flow instabilities.

A novel approach is used in the governing equations to ensure stable numerical schemes and homogeneous particle distributions. The SPH heat equation takes into account the thermal release during phase transition and is more suitable for alloy solidification. The solid wall boundary conditions are slightly modified to satisfy the filling simulations. Several case studies are carried out to predict significant details about the filling order and flow structures in the mold cavity. The velocity and temperature distributions during different stages of melt filling are also given. The results show that this proposed model allows us to understand the predisposition of defects such as gas porosity and weld lines in the castings.

We study the properties such as H-inequality, total variation boundedness and positivity of both the LBEs, and infer that the LBE due to semi-implicit discretisation naturally satisfies all the properties while the LBE due to explicit discretisation requires more restrictive condition on relaxation factor compared to the usual condition obtained from Chapman-Enskog expansion. We also derive the macroscopic finite difference form of the LBEs, and utilise it to establish the consistency of LBEs with the hyperbolic system. Further, we extend this LBM framework to hyperbolic conservation laws with source terms, such that there is no spurious numerical convection due to imbalance between convection and source terms.

In the present work, we showcase the application of loose coupling algorithm for FSI problems using the sharp interface IB method specifically for low to moderate mass ratios (defined as the ratio of the mass of the structure to the mass of the fluid at the same volume). We demonstrate several test cases: vortex-induced vibration (VIV) of a cylinder, the effect of hinged leaflets attached to the exit of a piston in a channel, sedimentation of a circular disk, and bi-leaflet mechanical heart valves (BMHV) made of lightweight materials in physiological flow. We found our loose coupling method to be stable in all the test cases and obtained a linear relationship between the grid resolution employed and the lowest mass ratio for stable computations in the case of VIV of cylinder. Thus, a significant finding of our work is that with a reduction in grid spacing, one can achieve stable FSI simulation involving lower mass ratios using loosly-coupled schemes. We have deployed the present technique to investigate the dynamics of very low-density cylinders and hinged leaflets due to the fluid forces on them.
