The work presented in this paper is part of a comprehensive research effort aimed at understanding the influence of flow unsteadiness on leading edge cavitation. Pressure measurements are made on the suction side of an oscillating hydrofoil in the High-Spe ...
This thesis is divided into two parts. In the first one the creation of a complete numerical tool, from the mesh generation to the data treatment, is presented. However time consuming this part has been, this is not the most important one. The second and m ...
High-performance parallel computer systems have been employed to compute a variety of three-dimensional incompressible fluid flows. Three different numerical methods have been used for the discretization of the Navier-Stokes equations, with domain decompos ...
An algorithm is proposed for the simulation of unsteady viscous stratified compressible flows. The advantage of the method is its capability to deal with a broad range of subsonic Mach numbers, including nearly incompressible flows, with a single modelling ...
In an attempt to describe the basic phenomenon of grout propagation, a continuous model of miscible fluid displacement in deformable saturated porous media is proposed. In order to exhibit the relevance of the hydromechanical coupling during the mass trans ...
In this thesis we will show that unsteady, incompressible fluid-flow problems, as described by the three-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations, can efficiently be simulated by a parallel computer code based on a spectral element discretization. This efficien ...
An experimental study of flow in a Francis hydraulic turbine, especially designed for the GAMM Workshop, has been carried out. In order to provide a data base for the validation and comparison of computational fluid dynamics codes, a Francis turbine mode! ...
A computer model for simulating pressure and flow propagation in the human arterial system is developed. The model is based on the one-dimensional flow equations and includes non-linearities arising from geometry and material properties. Fifty five arteria ...
