This paper presents a three-dimensional through-flow approach based on the cylindrical Euler equations incorporating body force method. Blade performance is captured through mixture of empirical correlations and novel reverse flow treatment. The code first application physically correct Godunov solver to rotating stall surge modelling. ensures accurate calculation inter-cell fluxes unlike in typical modern CFD codes which non-linear convective terms are linearised. Validation consists...
This work focuses on the review of particle-based multiscale and hybrid methods that have surfaced in field fluid mechanics over last 20 years. We consider five established particle methods: molecular dynamics, direct simulation Monte Carlo, lattice Boltzmann method, dissipative dynamics smoothed-particle hydrodynamics. A general description is given each method conjunction with applications. An analysis length scale separation revealed current only bridge across scales which are order...
A multiphase approach is used to study macrosegregation phenomena that occur during solidification of steel ingot castings. The goal enhance the understanding different mechanisms formation. 4 cases are presented consecutively with increasing complexity model assumptions and dimensions: (1) feeding-induced macrosegregations in 1-dimentional unidirectional situation, (2) caused by thermosolutal buoyancy driven flow a 2-dimensional axially symmetric benchmark ingot, (3) grain sedimentation...
Abstract This paper introduces a unified concept and algorithm for the fractional-step (FS), artificial compressibility (AC) pressure-projection (PP) methods solving incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. The proposed FSAC-PP approach falls into group of pseudo-time splitting high-resolution incorporating characteristics-based (CB) Godunov-type treatment convective terms with PP methods. Due to fact that CB are applicable directly hyperbolic AC formulation not elliptical FS-PP (split)...

The present paper deals with the formation of macrosegregation in a benchmark ingot using (Fe-C-Cr) ternary alloy composition. numerical investigation complex multiphase phenomena is difficult study, because thermophysical properties depend strongly on temperature, concentration, pressure and chemical composition as well. For modeling solidification melting processes different phases (e.g. liquid, equiaxed crystals columnar dendrite trunks) have been considered. mass, momentum, energy...

This paper investigates the effects of wall mass, m w, and bonding stiffness, κ, on thermal resistance at a solid–liquid interface. The main observation is that mass influences independently its theoretical harmonic frequency, √κ/m w walls. We show increasing atomic solid particles significantly increases temperature jump Furthermore, this effect becomes continuously more important as value stiffness decreases. To understand this, we study density profiles walls, which shed light their...
