A note on oblique stagnation-point flow

Physics of Fluids, 2008
Previous analyses of oblique stagnation-point flow at a plane wall are discussed and unified with reference to a free parameter. The oblique flow consists of orthogonal stagnation-point flow to which is added a shear flow whose vorticity is fixed at infinity.

Unsteady axisymmetric stagnation point flow

Fluid Dynamics Research, 1992
The unsteady axisymmetric case of a three-dimensional stagnation flow is investigated. The incompressible potential flow far away from the stagnation point oscillates about a constant mean value. Using perturbation methods, an analytical solution of the problem is obtained for the extreme cases of low and high oscillation frequencies.

Unsteady Stagnation Point Heat Transfer

Journal of Heat Transfer, 1965
An analysis is presented for the unsteady laminar, forced-convection heat transfer at a two-dimensional and axisymmetrical front stagnation due to an arbitrarily prescribed wall temperature or heat flux variation. The flow is incompressible and steady.

Magnetohydrodynamic flow at a rear stagnation point

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1967
An exact rear stagnation point solution is sought for a viscous, incompressible conducting fluid in the presence of a magnetic field. It is found that a steady solution exists only if [Nscr ] ≥ 2, where [Nscr ] = σB2/ρα is the interaction parameter of the flow based upon the normal component of the magnetic field at the wall. Here α is a positive

Stagnation-Point Radiation for Apollo 4

Journal of Thermophysics and Heat Transfer, 2004
The radiative heating rate at the stagnation point of the Apollo 4 vehicle is calculated using an up-to-date set of radiation parameters and is compared with the flight data. The radiation parameter set includes the recently characterized atomic lines of N and O and the molecular bands of N 2 , CO, and H 2 in the vacuum ultraviolet wavelength range ...

Instability of stagnation points in magnetohydrodynamic equilibria

Physics of Plasmas, 1996
Instabilities associated with streamlines connecting stagnation points in an equilibrium with plane incompressible flow are studied. It is shown that they belong to two different types: If the velocity of fluid absorption at the endpoint is greater than the velocity of fluid emission at the initial point, only a discrete spectrum of unstable standing ...

Stability of stagnation points in rotating flows

Physics of Fluids, 1997
The Lifschitz and Hameiri theory for short-wave instabilities is used to show that any steady inviscid plane flow subjected (or not) to a Coriolis with perpendicular angular velocity vector is unstable to three-dimensional perturbations if Φ(x0)<0 on a stagnation point located at x0.

Impinging rotational stagnation-point flows

International Journal of Non-Linear Mechanics, 2017
Abstract A rotational stagnation-point flow of fluid density ρ1 and kinematic viscosity ν1 impinges normal to another rotational stagnation-point flow of fluid density ρ2 and viscosity ν2. Results are compared with a previous study on the normal impingement of two Homann stagnation-point flows for which the flow in the far field is irrotational.
