Homotopy Solution for Stagnation-Point Flow

Communications in Theoretical Physics, 2012
This article reports the homotopy solution for stagnation point flow of a non-Newtonian fluid. An incompressible second grade fluid impinges on the wall either orthogonally or obliquely. The resulting nonlinear problems have been solved by a homotopy analysis method (HAM). Convergence of the series solutions is checked. Such solutions are compared with

On the Creation of Stagnation Points in a Rotating Flow

Ocean Engineering, 1997
Abstract We report the results of a numerical study of the creation of stagnation points in a rotating cylinder of fluid where both end-walls are rotated. Good agreement is found with previous results where the stagnation points are formed on the core of the primary columnar vortex.

ON THE VISCOUS FLOW NEAR THE STAGNATION POINT ON AN INTERFACE

1964
Abstract : The viscous flow near the stagnation point on an interface between two liquids with different densities is studied. The use of a model allows some fairly general results to be readily obtained as a result of a mathematical analysis. Moreover, although the model is obviously not in full accordance with re-entry phenomena, it is believed that ...

Stagnation-Point Flow of Rarefied GaS

Journal of the Physical Society of Japan, 1967
This paper deals theoretically with the stagnation-point flow of a rarefied gas. Representative Mach number M S taken in the continuum flow region is assumed to be small and thus the analysis is based on the linearized B-G-K equation. A method of solution is developed in which the continuum flow and the Knudsen layer flow are considered successively ...

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.

Stagnation Point Probes in Hypersonic Flow

2017
Disturbance level measurements are carried out in the Hypersonic Ludwieg Tube Braunschweig (HLB) at \(\text{ Ma } = 5.9\) considering three shapes of stagnation point probes (SPP) and two different types of high speed surface sensors. Navier Stokes mean-flow solutions are produced for the flow around the front shapes to increase the understanding of ...

MHD stagnation-point flow

2013
The flow near a stagnation-point is a fundamental topic in fluid dynamics and it has been studied by several researches during the past decades because of its relevant applications. In this Thesis we investigate the influence of the electromagnetic field on the stagnation-point flow of a Newtonian or a micropolar fluid.

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.

Axisymmetric stagnation point flow in magnetohydrodynamics

Applied Scientific Research, Section B, 1961
This paper contains a theoretical treatment of the axisymmetric stagnation point problem in magnetohydrodynamics. Two distinct arrangements of the magnetic field are considered, with the lines of force lying in the plane of, and perpendicular to the streamlines, respectively.
