Turbulent-laminar patterns in plane Poiseuille flow

Tobias Schneider, Tobias Klaus Kreilos

Turbulent-laminar banded patterns in plane Poiseuille flow are studied via direct numerical simulations in a tilted and translating computational domain using a parallel version of the pseudospectral code Channelflow. 3D visualizations via the streamwise v ...

Flow simulation of a Pelton bucket using finite volume particle method

François Avellan, Ebrahim Jahanbakhsh, Christian Vessaz

The objective of the present paper is to perform an accurate numerical simulation of the high-speed water jet impinging on a Pelton bucket. To reach this goal, the Finite Volume Particle Method (FVPM) is used to discretize the governing equations. FVPM is ...

Rotational propulsion enabled by inertia

Lailai Zhu

The fluid mechanics of small-scale locomotion has recently attracted considerable attention, due to its importance in cell motility and the design of artificial micro-swimmers for biomedical applications. Most studies on the topic consider the ideal limit ...

A second-order cut-cell method for the numerical simulation of 2D flows past obstacles

We present a new second-order method, based on the MAC scheme on cartesian grids, for the numerical simulation of two-dimensional incompressible flows past obstacles. In this approach, the solid boundary is embedded in the cartesian computational mesh. Dis ...

Large Eddy Simulation of Particle Dynamics Inside a Differentially Heated Cavity

Christoph Bosshard

In nuclear safety, most severe accident scenarios lead to the presence of fission products in aerosol form in the closed containment atmosphere. It is important to understand the particle depletion process to estimate the risk of a release of radioactivity ...

Dam Break of Newtonian Fluids and Granular Suspensions

Nicolas Andreini

The objective of this thesis was to increase our understanding of two-phase geophysical flows (e.g. debris flows) by providing velocity profiles in idealized laboratory avalanches. To that end, we developed a new experimental platform made up of an incline ...

Simulation of Time-Dependent Viscoelastic Fluid Flows by Spectral Elements

Azadeh Jafari

The research work reported in this dissertation is aimed to develop efficient and stable numerical schemes in order to obtain accurate numerical solution for viscoelastic fluid flows within the spectral element context. The present research consists in the ...

Segmentation and Grid Generation for Numerical Simulations of VAD Connections with Patientspecific Data

Alfio Quarteroni, Simone Deparis, Elena Faggiano, Jean Bonnemain, Ludwig Von Segesser

Objectives: We are interested in the numerical simulation of the anastomotic region comprised between outflow canula of LVAD and the aorta. Segmentation, geometry reconstruction and grid generation from patient specific data remain an issue because of the ...

Grid Filter Models for the Large Eddy Simulation of Fluid Flows

Marc Anthony David Habisreutinger

In fluid mechanics, turbulence can occur in very simple flow geometries, for Newtonian fluids and without the need for additional flow conditions such as temperature gradients or chemical reactions. In standard cases, intuitive assumptions on the physics o ...

The Effects of Fluid Elasticity on Grid Turbulence

Richard Vonlanthen

Experiments on grid turbulence are reported for pure water and dilute Polyox WSR 301 solutions. A novel passive grid, which consists of a square mesh grid with tethered spheres, has been developed to enhance the turbulence properties. In pure water the new ...
