(High order discontinuities decomposition entropy condition schemes for Euler equations. <i>CFD J</i>. 2002;10(4): 448–457), this article studies a type of one-step fully-discrete scheme, and constructs a third-order scheme which is written into a compact form via a new limiter. The highlights of this study and advantages of new third-order scheme are as follows: ① We proposed a very simple new methodology of constructing one-step, consistent high-order and non-oscillation schemes that do not rely on Runge–Kutta method; ② We systematically studied new scheme's theoretical problems about entropy conditions, error analysis, and non-oscillation conditions; ③ The new scheme achieves exact solution in linear cases and performing better in nonlinear cases when CFL → 1; ④ The new scheme is third order but high resolution with excellent shock-capturing capacity which is comparable to fifth order WENO scheme; ⑤ CPU time of new scheme is only a quarter of WENO5 + RK3 under same computing condition; ⑥ For engineering applications, the new scheme is extended to multi-dimensional Euler equations under curvilinear coordinates. Numerical experiments contain 1D scalar equation, 1D,2D,3D Euler equations. Accuracy tests are carried out using 1D linear scalar equation, 1D Burgers equation and 2D Euler equations and two sonic point tests are carried out to show the effect of entropy condition linearization. All tests are compared with results of WENO5 and finally indicate EC3 is cheaper in computational expense.</p>","PeriodicalId":50348,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids","volume":"96 6","pages":"930-961"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139956327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Contrary to the density-based algorithms, the pressure-based algorithms have stable convergence rates even in zero-Mach number flows. As another contribution, literature shows that the past developed methods mostly used mesh searching techniques to attribute particles to cells at the beginning of each tracking time-step. Also, they had to calculate the linear basis functions at every time-step to estimate the particle mean fields and interpolate the data. These calculations would be computationally very expensive, time-consuming, and inefficient in computational domains with arbitrary-shaped 3D meshes. As known, the barycentric tracking is a continuous particle tracking method, which provides more efficiency in case of handling 3D domains with general mesh shapes. The barycentric tracking eliminates any mesh searching technique and readily provides the convenient linear basis functions. So, this work benefits from these advantages and tracks the particles based on their barycentric coordinates.  It leads to less computational work and a better efficiency for the present method. A bluff-body turbulent flow case is examined to validate the present FV/PDF MC method. From the accuracy perspective, it is shown that the results of the present algorithm are in great agreement with experimental data and available numerical solutions. The present study shows that the number of particle time-steps required to reach the statistically steady-state condition is at least one-sixth less than the previously developed algorithms. This also approves a faster convergence rate for the present hybrid pressure-based algorithm.</p>","PeriodicalId":50348,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids","volume":"96 6","pages":"884-901"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139839461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Accordingly, this study presents a stabilized NS-PFEM-FIC formulation to simulate an incompressible fluid with free-surface flow. In the proposed approach, (1) stabilization is achieved by implementing the gradient strain field in place of the constant strain field over the smoothing domains, handling spatial and temporal instabilities in direct nodal integration; (2) the finite increment calculus (FIC) stabilization terms are added using nodal integration, and a three-step fractional step method is adopted to update pressures and velocities; and (3) a novel slip boundary with the predictor–corrector algorithm is developed to deal with the interaction between the free-surface flow with rigid walls, avoiding the pressure concentration induced by standard no-slip condition. The proposed stabilized NS-PFEM-FIC is validated via several classical numerical cases (hydrostatic test, water jet impinging, water dam break, and water dam break on a rigid obstacle). Comparisons of all simulations to the experimental results and other numerical solutions reveal good agreement, demonstrating the strong ability of the proposed stabilized NS-PFEM-FIC to solve incompressible free-surface flow with high accuracy and promising application prospects.</p>","PeriodicalId":50348,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids","volume":"96 6","pages":"853-883"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139842814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This well-known multi-scale, multi-physics problem is widely used in various fields, including industry and medicine. The method adopts a fully sharp model, where surface tension and Maxwell stress are treated as surface forces and free charges are concentrated on the zero thickness liquid-vacuum interface. Incorporating charge evaporation imposes strict restrictions on the time-step, as the rate of evaporation sharply increases with surface evolution. To overcome this challenge, an iterative algorithm that couples the electric field and surface charge density is proposed to obtain accurate results, even with significantly large time-steps. To mitigate the numerical residuals near the interface, which may introduce parasitic flows and cause numerical instability, an immersed interface method-based iterative projection method for the Navier–Stokes equations is proposed, in which a traction boundary condition involving multiple surface forces is imposed on the sharp interface. Numerical experiments were carried out, and the results show that the method is splitting-error-free and stable. The sharp immersed method is applied to simulate the electric-induced deformation of an ionic liquid drop with charge evaporation. The results indicate that charge evaporation can suppress the sharp development of Taylor cones at the ends of the drops. These findings have significant implications for the design and optimization of EHD systems in various applications.</p>","PeriodicalId":50348,"journal":{"name":"International Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids","volume":"96 5","pages":"766-788"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-02-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139956968","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
