    Notes: We study the numerical solution of optimal control problems associated with two-dimensional viscous incompressible thermally convective flows. Although the techniques apply to more general settings, the presentation is confined to the objectives of minimizing the vorticity in the steady state case and tracking the velocity field in the non-stationary case with boundary temperature controls. In the steady state case we develop a systematic way to use the Lagrange multiplier rules to derive an optimality system of equations from which an optimal solution can be computed; finite element methods are used to find approximate solutions for the optimality system of equations. In the time-dependent case a piecewise-in-time optimal control approach is proposed and the fully discrete approximation algorithm for solving the piecewise optimal control problem is defined. Numerical results are presented for both the steady state and time-dependent optimal control problems. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A state-of-the-art model is developed for the simulation of the dispersion of hazardous toxic or flammable gases heavier than air in the atmosphere. The model depends on solving the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations in addition to the energy equation and a species concentration equation for the contaminant gas. Turbulence closure is achieved by using a buoyancy-extended version of the standard k- ∊ two-equation model. The buoyancy extension is introduced to account for the anisotropic turbulent viscosity resulting from the strong stratification introduced by the dense gas clouds. The spatial discretization is achieved via the Galerkin finite element method, while the solution is advanced in time using the forward Euler method. A special element layer is introduced in the near-ground region to bridge the gap between the solid wall and the main solution domain where the turbulence model can be applied. This special element layer eliminates the need to apply the wall function in the standard way where any oscillations in the pressure field could contaminate the velocity solution. The model was tested against the Burro-8 field trial and could predict the experiment satisfactorily to within the experimental uncertainties of the reported results. © by 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Steady flows in a three-dimensional lid-driven cavity at moderate Reynolds number are studied using various methods of parallel programming on the Cray T3D and Thinking Machines CM-5. These three-dimensional flows are compared with flows computed in a two-dimensional cavity. Solutions at Reynolds number up to 500 agree well with the experimental data of Aidun et al. (Phys. Fluids A, 3, 2081-2091 (1991)) for the location of separation of the secondary eddy at the downstream wall. Convergence of the three-dimensional problem using GMRES with diagonal preconditioning could not be obtained at Reynolds number greater than about 500. We speculate that the source of the difficulty is the loss of stability via pitchfork and Hopf bifurcations identified by Aidun et al. The relative performance of various methods of message passing on the Cray T3D is compared with the data-parallel mode of programming on the CM-5. No clear advantage between machines or message-passing methods is distinguished. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A hybrid conservative finite difference/finite element scheme is proposed for the solution of the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. Using velocity-pressure variables on a non-staggeredgrid system, the solution is obtained with a projection method basedon the resolution of a pressure Poisson equation.The new proposed scheme is derived from the finite element spatial discretization using the Galerkin method with piecewise bilinear polynomial basis functions defined on quadrilateral elements. It is applied to the pressure gradient term and to the non-linear convection term as in the so-called group finite element method. It ensures strong coupling between spatial directions, inhibiting the development of oscillations during long-term computations, as demonstrated by the validation studies.Two- and three-dimensional unsteady separated flows with open boundaries have been simulated with the proposed method using Cartesian uniform mesh grids. Several examples of calculations on the backward-facing step configuration are reported and the results obtained are compared with those given by other methods. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper is concerned with the precise localization of Hopf bifurcations in various fluid flow problems. This is when a stationary solution loses stability and often becomes periodic in time. The difficulty is to determine the critical Reynolds number where a pair of eigenvalues of the Jacobian matrix crosses the imaginary axis. This requires the computation of the eigenvalues (or at least some of them) of a large matrix resulting from the discretization of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations. We thus present a method allowing the computation of the smallest eigenvalues, from which we can extract the one with the smallest real part. From the imaginary part of the critical eigenvalue we can deduce the fundamental frequency of the time-periodic solution. These computations are then confirmed by direct simulation of the time-dependent Navier-Stokes equations. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper presents an adaptive finite element method to solve forced convective heat transfer. Solutions are obtained in primitive variables using a high-order finite element approximation on unstructured grids. Two general-purpose error estimators are developed to analyse finite element solutions and to determine the characteristics of an improved mesh which is adaptively regenerated by the advancing front method. The adaptive methodology is validated on a problem with a known analytical solution. The methodology is then applied to heat transfer predictions for two cases of practical interest. Predictions of the Nusselt number compare well with measurements and constitute an improvement over previous results. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper summarizes the method-of-lines (MOL) solution of the Navier-Stokes equations for an impulsively started incompressible laminar flow in a circular pipe with a sudden expansion. An intelligent higher-order spatial discretization scheme, which chooses upwind or downwind discretization in a zone-of-dependence manner when flow reversal occurs, was developed for separated flows. Stability characteristics of a linear advective-diffusive equation were examined to depict the necessity of such a scheme in the case of flow reversals. The proposed code was applied to predict the time development of an impulsively started flow in a pipe with a sudden expansion. Predictions were found to show the expected trends for both unsteady and steady states. This paper demonstrates the ease with which the Navier-Stokes equations can be solved in an accurate manner using sophisticated numerical algorithms for the solution of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). Solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations in primitive variables formulation by using the MOL and intelligent higher-order spatial discretization scheme are not available to date. © 1997 by John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A new boundary element method is presented for steady incompressible flow at moderate and high Reynolds numbers. The whole domain is discretized into a number of eight-noded cells, for each of which the governing boundary integral equation is formulated exclusively in terms of velocities and tractions. The kernels used in this paper are the fundamental solutions of the linearized Navier-Stokes equations with artificial compressibility. Significant attention is given to the numerical evaluation of the integrals over quadratic boundary elements as well as over quadratic quadrilateral volume cells in order to ensure a high accuracy level at high Reynolds numbers. As an illustration, square driven cavity flows are considered for Reynolds numbers up to 1000. Numerical results demonstrate both the high convergence rate, even when using simple (direct) iterations, and the appropriate level of accuracy of the proposed method. Although the method yields a high level of accuracy in the primary vortex region, the secondary vortices are not properly resolved. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: The formulation and implementation of a three-dimensional meshless method, the element-free Galerkin (EFG) method, are described. The formulation is intended for dynamic problems with geometric and material non-linearities solved with explicit time integration, but some of the developments are applicable to other solution methods. The mechanical formulation is posed in the reference configuration so that the shape functions and their derivatives need to be computed only once. A method for speeding up the calculation of shape functions and their derivatives is presented. Results are presented for sloshing problems and Taylor bar impact problems, including an impact problem in which the bar impacts with an angle of obliquity. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Multiresolution analysis based on the reproducing kernel particle method (RKPM) is developed for computational fluid dynamics. An algorithm incorporating multiple-scale adaptive refinement is introduced. The concept of using a wavelet solution as an error indicator is also presented. A few representative numerical examples are solved to illustrate the performance of this new meshless method. Results show that the RKPM is a good candidate for tackling the widespread large-scale problems in fluid dynamics. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: A fourth-order numerical method for solving the Navier-Stokes equations in streamfunction/vorticity formulation on a two-dimensional non-uniform orthogonal grid has been tested on the fluid flow in a constricted symmetric channel. The family of grids is generated algebraically using a conformal transformation followed by a non-uniform stretching of the mesh cells in which the shape of the channel boundary can vary from a smooth constriction to one which one possesses a very sharp but smooth corner. The generality of the grids allows the use of long channels upstream and downstream as well as having a refined grid near the sharp corner. Derivatives in the governing equations are replaced by fourth-order central differences and the vorticity is eliminated, either before or after the discretization, to form a wide difference molecule for the streamfunction. Extra boundary conditions, necessary for wide-molecule methods, are supplied by a procedure proposed by Henshaw et al. The ensuing set of non-linear equations is solved using Newton iteration. Results have been obtained for Reynolds numbers up to 250 for three constrictions, the first being smooth, the second having a moderately sharp corner and the third with a very sharp corner. Estimates of the error incurred show that the results are very accurate and substantially better than those of the corresponding second-order method. The observed order of the method has been shown to be close to four, demonstrating that the method is genuinely fourth-order. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Numerical uncertainties are quantified for calculations of transonic flow around a divergent trailing edge (DTE) supercritical aerofoil. The Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations are solved using a linearized block implicit solution procedure and mixing-length turbulence model. This procedure has reproduced measurements around supercritical aerofoils with blunt trailing edges that have shock, boundary layer and separated regions. The present effort quantifies numerical uncertainty in these calculations using grid convergence indices which are calculated from aerodynamic coefficients, shock location, dimensions of the recirculating region in the wake of the blunt trailing edge and distributions of surface pressure coefficients. The grid convergence index is almost uniform around the aerofoil, except in the shock region and at the point where turbulence transition was fixed. The grid convergence index indicates good convergence for lift but only fair convergence for moment and drag and also confirms that drag calculations are more sensitive to numerical error. © 1997 by John Wiley and Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: This paper presents an adaptive finite element method for solving incompressible turbulent flows using a k-∊ model of turbulence. Solutions are obtained in primitive variables using a highly accurate quadratic finite element on unstructured grids. A projection error estimator is presented that takes into account the relative importance of the errors in velocity, pressure and turbulence variables. The efficiency and convergence rate of the methodology are evaluated by solving problems with known analytical solutions. The method is then applied to turbulent flow over a backward-facing step and predictions are compared with experimental measurements. © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
