Application of High‐Order Direct Flux Reconstruction and Stiffness‐Resilient Time Integration to Simulations of Idealized Atmospheric Flows

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
The proposed work implements a direct flux reconstruction method for spatial discretization and a stiffness‐resilient exponential time integration method for temporal discretization on the cube‐sphere grid. A space‐time tensor formalism is employed to provide a general representation in any curvilinear coordinate system. This combination enables highly

Delayed Detached-Eddy Simulations of Aerodynamic Variability During Carrier-Based Aircraft Landing with a Domain Precursor Inflow Method

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Flight tests and wind tunnel experiments face difficulties in investigating the impact of aircraft carrier air-wake on the landing process. Meanwhile, numerical methods generally exhibit low overall computational efficiency in solving such problems.

Unsteady aerodynamics modeling using Volterra series expansed by basis function

open access: yesMATEC Web of Conferences, 2018
Unsteady aerodynamics modeling must accurately describe nonlinear aerodynamic characteristics in addition to unsteady aerodynamic characteristics. The Volterra series has attracted increasing attention as a powerful tool for nonlinear system modeling. It

Unsteady transonic viscous-inviscid interaction using Euler and boundary-layer equations [PDF]

open access: yes
The Euler code is used extensively for computation of transonic unsteady aerodynamics. The boundary layer code solves the 3-D, compressible, unsteady, mean flow kinetic energy integral boundary layer equations in the direct mode.

Polymer Stress‐Tensor Calculation for a Laminar Submerged Viscoelastic Jet Flow Using Different Constitutive Models

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical Methods in Fluids, EarlyView.
This study presents an efficient method to compute polymer stress‐tensor components in viscoelastic laminar jet flows using models such as Oldroyd‐B, Giesekus, PTT, and FENE. By assuming a stationary and parallel flow, the methodology significantly reduces computational cost.

The influence of unsteady aerodynamics on hingeless rotor ground resonance [PDF]

open access: yes
Calculations of the model frequency and damping for a hingeless rotor on a gimballed support in hover are compared with measured results for two configurations (differing in blade flap stiffness). Good correlation is obtaned when an inflow dynamics model

CFD Analysis of Dual‐Layer PCM Roofs for Thermal Mitigation in Residential Buildings

open access: yesHeat Transfer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a computational fluid dynamics analysis of dual‐layer phase change material (PCM) roofs for passive cooling in residential buildings under the hot and humid climate of Bangladesh. A three‐dimensional transient model was developed in ANSYS Fluent using the enthalpy–porosity approach to simulate coupled heat conduction ...
