Navier-Stokes system

Develop a Dual Reciprocity boundary-only integral equation for the Navier-Stokes system of equations. 

Thus the objective here is a generally applicable simulation of steady, two-dimensional, incompressible flow between rigid rolls with film splitting. The results reported are solutions of the full Navier-Stokes system including the physically required boundary conditions. The analysis is also extended to a shearthinning fluid. The solutions consist of velocity and pressure fields, free surface position and shape, and the sensitivities of these variables to parameter variations, valuable information not readily available from the conventional approach (10). The rate-of-strain, vorticity, and stress fields are also available from the solutions reported here although they are not portrayed. Moreover, the stability of the flow states represented by the solutions can also be found by additional finite element techniques (11), and the results of doing so will be reported in the future. 

If these assumptions are satisfied then the ideas developed earlier about the mean free path can be used to provide qualitative but useful estimates of the transport properties of a dilute gas. While many varied and complicated processes can take place in fluid systems, such as turbulent flow, pattern fonnation, and so on, the principles on which these flows are analysed are remarkably simple. The description of both simple and complicated flows m fluids is based on five hydrodynamic equations, die Navier-Stokes equations. These equations, in trim, are based upon the mechanical laws of conservation of particles, momentum and energy in a fluid, together with a set of phenomenological equations, such as Fourier s law of themial conduction and Newton s law of fluid friction. When these phenomenological laws are used in combination with the conservation equations, one obtains the Navier-Stokes equations. Our goal here is to derive the phenomenological laws from elementary mean free path considerations, and to obtain estimates of the associated transport coefficients. Flere we will consider themial conduction and viscous flow as examples. 

This latter modified midpoint method does work well, however, for the long time integration of Hamiltonian systems which are not highly oscillatory. Note that conservation of any other first integral can be enforced in a similar manner. To our knowledge, this method has not been considered in the literature before in the context of Hamiltonian systems, although it is standard among methods for incompressible Navier-Stokes (where its time-reversibility is not an issue, however). 

The simplest case of fluid modeling is the technique known as computational fluid dynamics. These calculations model the fluid as a continuum that has various properties of viscosity, Reynolds number, and so on. The flow of that fluid is then modeled by using numerical techniques, such as a finite element calculation, to determine the properties of the system as predicted by the Navier-Stokes equation. These techniques are generally the realm of the engineering community and will not be discussed further here. 

Reviews of concentration polarization have been reported (14,38,39). Because solute wall concentration may not be experimentally measurable, models relating solute and solvent fluxes to hydrodynamic parameters are needed for system design. The Navier-Stokes diffusion—convection equation has been numerically solved to calculate wall concentration, and thus the water flux and permeate quaUty (40).

While there are mairy variants of the basic, model, one can show that there is a well-defined minimal set of niles that define a lattice-gas system whose macroscopic behavior reproduces that predicted by the Navier-Stokes equations exactly. In other words, there is critical threshold of rule size and type that must be met before the continuum fluid l)cliavior is matched, and onec that threshold is reached the efficacy of the rule-set is no loner appreciably altered by additional rules respecting the required conservation laws and symmetries.

General equations of momentum and energy balance for dispersed two-phase flow were derived by Van Deemter and Van Der Laan (V2) by integration over a volume containing a large number of elements of the dispersed phase. A complete system of solutions of linearized Navier-Stokes equations... 

The system of quasi-one-dimensional non-stationary equations derived by transformation of the Navier-Stokes equations can be successfully used for studying the dynamics of two-phase flow in a heated capillary with distinct interface. 

In fluid dynamics the behavior in this system is described by the full set of hydrodynamic equations. This behavior can be characterized by the Reynolds number. Re, which is the ratio of characteristic flow scales to viscosity scales. We recall that the Reynolds number is a measure of the dominating terms in the Navier-Stokes equation and, if the Reynolds number is small, linear terms will dominate if it is large, nonlinear terms will dominate. In this system, the nonlinear term, (u V)u, serves to convert linear momentum into angular momentum. This phenomena is evidenced by the appearance of two counter-rotating vortices or eddies immediately behind the obstacle. Experiments and numerical integration of the Navier-Stokes equations predict the formation of these vortices at the length scale of the obstacle. Further, they predict that the distance between the vortex center and the obstacle is proportional to the Reynolds number. All these have been observed in our 2-dimensional flow system obstructed by a thermal plate at microscopic scales. ... 

An Eulerian-Eulerian (EE) approach was adopted to simulate the dispersed gas-liquid flow. The EE approach treats both the primary liquid phase and the dispersed gas phase as interpenetrating continua, and solves a set of Navier-Stokes equations for each phase. Velocity inlet and outlet boundary conditions were employed in the liquid phase, whilst the gas phase conditions consisted of a velocity inlet and pressure outlet. Turbulence within the system was account for with the Standard k-e model, implemented on a per-phase basis, similar to the recent work of Bertola et. al.[4]. A more detailed description of the computational setup of the EE method can be found in Pareek et. al.[5]. 

In the first two cases the Navier-Stokes equation can be applied, in the second case with modified boundary conditions. The computationally most difficult case is the transition flow regime, which, however, might be encountered in micro-reactor systems. Clearly, the defined ranges of Knudsen numbers are not rigid rather they vary from case to case. However, the numbers given above are guidelines applicable to many situations encoimtered in practice. 

The Navier-Stokes equation and the enthalpy equation are coupled in a complex way even in the case of incompressible fluids, since in general the viscosity is a function of temperature. There are, however, many situations in which such interdependencies can be neglected. As an example, the temperature variation in a microfluidic system might be so small that the viscosity can be assumed to be constant. In such cases the velocity field can be determined independently from the temperature field. When inserting the computed velocity field into Eq. (77) and expressing the energy density e by the temperature T, a linear equahon in T is... 

Note that when the fluid velocity (v) is constant, the description of convection given by the second term on the right-hand side of this equation is identical to that of the plug flow model [Eq. (8)]. In more complex systems, a spatially varying fluid velocity may by incorporated by using the Navier-Stokes equations [Eqs. (10)—(12)] to describe velocity profiles. 

The basic idea of the IBM is that the presence of the solid boundary (fixed or moving) in a fluid can be represented by a virtual body force field Fp applied on the computational grid at the vicinity of solid-flow interface. Thus, the Navier-Stokes equation for this flow system in the Eulerian frame can be given by...
