The Evaluation of the Boundary Vorticity by URANS and LES Methods
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2015, Vol 7, Issue 4
Abstract
The role of concentrated vorticity in fluid dynamics phenomena, concerning both the vorticity creation at the boundary and the response to the flow field is not wholly understood. The Lighthill describes the vorticity production at a solid boundary as a slow diffusion of the vorticity similar to the Fourier heat conduction. In the paper it is shown that this mechanism associated to URANS method is not applied to the concentrated vorticity case, and the LES method better reproduces the flows involving concentrations vorticity.

Aerodynamic Interference between Oscillating Lifting Surfaces and Fuselage. Part 6: A Panel Method for Non-Lifting Bodies Oscillating in Subsonic Flow
In the sixth part of this series, we continue our study started in the previous article, i.e., we present the basis of the method for calculating the unsteady airforces on oscillating non-lifting bodies. The method propo...
Development of a Three-Dimensional Unstructured Euler Solver for High-Speed Flows
This paper addresses the solution of the compressible Euler equations on hexahedral meshes for supersonic and hypersonic flows. Spatial discretization is accomplished by a cell-centered finite-volume formulation which em...
Drop dispensing in a viscous outer liquid
The formation and detachment of Newtonian drops in viscous external liquids is investigated. A global analysis of two necking processes is presented in order to highlight the behavior of such thinning phenomena, when con...

Nanofilled EPDM composite for aerospace applications
O-rings are designed to be seated in a groove and compressed during assembly between two or more parts, creating a seal at the interface. The joint may be static, or (in a few circumstances) may have relative motion betw...
