Kinetic Flux Vector Splitting Method On Moving Grids (KFMG) For Unsteady Aerodynamics And Aeroelasticity
(Indian Institute of Science, 2007-06-07)Analysis of unsteady flows is a very challenging topic of research. A decade ago, potential flow equations were used to predict unsteady pressures on oscillating bodies. Recognising the fact that nonlinear aerodynamics is ... -
Kinetic Streamlined-Upwind Petrov Galerkin Methods for Hyperbolic Partial Differential Equations
(2017-09-20)In the last half a century, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) has been established as an important complementary part and some times a significant alternative to Experimental and Theoretical Fluid Dynamics. Development ... -
On Three Dimensional High Lift Flow Computations
(2018-02-18)Computing 3D high lift flows has been a challenge to the CFD community because of three important reasons: complex physics, complex geometries and large computational requirements. In the recent years, considerable progress ... -
A Residual Based h-Adaptive Strategy Employing A Zero Mean Polynomial Reconstruction
(2016-04-18)This thesis deals with the development of a new adaptive algorithm for three-dimensional fluid flows based on a residual error estimator. The residual, known as the R –parameter has been successfully extended to three ... -
Structural sensitivity of the precessing vortex core instability in swirled jets
This thesis performs an LES study of the flow through a swirling nozzle. The nozzle has one single stream with swirl being generated by vanes mounted on an axially aligned centrebody. The end face of the centrebody ... -
Studies On Shock Wave Attenuation In Liquids
(2013-06-11)The attenuation mechanism of shock waves of arbitrary strength propagating in air has been reasonably well understood. On the other hand, very little is known about the precise mechanism of shock wave attenuation and energy ... -
Studies on Vortex Breakdown in a Closed Cylinder with a Rotating Endwall
(2018-01-09)Swirling flows abound in nature and numerous engineering applications. Under conditions which are not completely understood, the swirling cores could undergo a sudden enlargement of their vortex core, leading to a ’vortex ...
