The problem of second-order wave diffraction around arbitrary two-dimensional bodies is studied and a numerical method in time-domain presented. The solution is based on separating the velocity potential into a known ...

Periodic fully-developed fluid flow and heat transfer characteristics are obtained numerically for turbulent flow in a channel with repeated baffle blockages. The channel has a rectangular cross-section and the baffles are ...

In this investigation, a model has been developed to predict the performance and emissions – NOx, CO and soot-in a direct-injection stratified-charge engine with a Texaco controlled combustion system (TCCS). This model ...

Transient conditions of two-phase air-water flow were numerically analyzed. The wave growth from a stratified flow regime in a horizontal duct was considered. Conservation equations were solved by finite difference method. ...

A numerical thermohydrodynamic analysis of journal bearings operating under laminar flow and steady conditions is presented. Numerical solutions of full Navier-Stokes equations, coupled with energy equation in the lubricant ...

A hybrid method is presented for domain decomposition employing combinatorial and algebraic graph theoretical algorithms. The method uses combinatorial graph theory for partial decomposition, followed by a spectral bisection ...

Two variables of importance in the design of cross-corrugated plate heat exchangers are the size (i.e, height and pitch) of the corrugation embossed on the plates, and the orientation of the corrugation with respect to the ...

A code for computing three-dimensional steady Euler equations regions has been developed for supersonic and hypersonic inviscid flows. First-and second-order upwind schemes are used. The algorithm uses cell-centered implicit ...

A method for adaptive refinement of a triangular mesh for solution of the steady and unsteady Euler equations is presented. An upwind, finite volume based on Roe's flux difference splitting method is used to discretize the ...

In this paper, the hydrodynamic phenomena of collision of a high-speed droplet with a rigid plane have been investigated by using perturbation techniques. Here, the velocity components, in contrast to other works, have ...
