    Notes: A formulation of the boundary element method for the solution of non-zero Reynolds number incompressible flows in which the non-linear terms are lumped together to form a forcing function is presented. Solutions can be obtained at low to moderate Reynolds numbers. The method was tested using the flow of a fluid in a two-dimensional converging channel (Hamel flow) for which an exact solution is available. An axisymmetric formulation is demonstrated by examining the drag experienced by a sphere held stationary in uniform flow. Performance of the method was satisfactory. New results for an axisymmetric free jet at zero Reynolds number obtained using the boundary element method are also included. The method is ideal for this type of free-surface problem.

    Notes: The quasi-three-dimensional equations controlling the groundwater flow in heterogeneous and interconnected aquifer systems are discretized by finite elements, considering also the aquifer branching. A new method for fluid mass balance evaluation based on the equivalent nodal source (E.N.S.) concept allows one to express the balance in conservative terms, and interpret finite element equations as nodal balance equations. The solution of the system is based on the frontal method. Use of substructures limits the frontal increase in correspondence to the aquifer branching. In the steady state, the frontal method is integrated with an iterative solution technique to eliminate the frontal increase caused by the presence of aquitards. It converges very rapidly, using a forcing technique with an automatic parameter definition. In the unsteady case the same scope is achieved using a predictor-corrector procedure which employs the Crank-Nicolson method in the corrector phase.This very stable procedure permits use of fairly long time-steps and concerns the case of source terms depending on piezometry (problem of interaction between water table and river). This method has been tested with several fairly complex cases.

    Notes: A revised version of Dodge's split-velocity method for numerical calculation of compressible duct flow has been developed. The revision incorporates balancing of mass flow rates on each marching step in order to maintain front-to-back continuity during the calculation. The (chequerboard) zebra algorithm is applied to solution of the three-dimensional continuity equation in conservative form. A second-order A-stable linear multistep method is employed in effecting a marching solution of the parabolized momentum equations. A chequerboard iteration is ued to solve the resulting implicit non-linear systems of finite-difference equations which govern stepwise transition. Qualitive agreement with analytical predictions and experimental results has been obtained for some flows with well-known solutions.

    Notes: Finite element models are presented for the calculation of near and far field acoustical radiation. These models are applied to the specific problem of fan noise radiation from axisymmetric turbofan inlets. In all cases conventional acoustic finite elements are used within an inner region close to the inlet. The far field is represented by infinite elements or wave envelope elements. Theory and results are presented for the case with zero mean flow. Comparisons of computed data with analytic solutions and measured values establish the utility of both the infinite element and wave envelope element schemes in determining the near field values of acoustical pressure. The wave envelope scheme is shown to be effective also in the far field. Both schemes use meshes an order of magnitude more sparse that would be required in conventional numerical discretizations, and may consequently be applied at modest computational cost.

    Notes: A multi-vortex model of the vortex sheets shed from the sharp leading edges of slender wings is considered. The method, which is developed within the framework of slender-body theory, is designed to deal with those situations in which more than one centre of rotation is formed on the wing, for example on a slender wing with lengthwise camber or with a strake. Numerical results are presented, firstly for situations where comparison can be made with a vortex sheet model and secondly for cases, such as those described above, where a vortex sheet model is unable to describe the flow. Where comparison is available, agreement is good and in the cases where more than one vortex system is present interesting interactions are obtained.

    Notes: The flow of an incompressible fluid in a rapidly rotating right circular cylinder is considered. A source/sink mass distribution at the lateral wall, which is azimuthally uniform and symmetric across the midplane, causes a deviation from wheel flow. The container is only partially full and the inner free surface is allowed to deviate slightly from the vertical. A finite-difference solution of the full axisymmetric, non-linear governing equations was used to obtain the flow field. A special implicit technique for the Coriolis terms which maintains geostrophy was developed and is described. The results obtained for a low Rossby number flow compare quite favourably with the linearized solution. Results are also presented for a case wherein the non-linear terms are important.

    Notes: A numerical approximation is taken to the solution of the complex flows existing in gas turbine engines with transonic blading. The quasi-3D approach decouples the problem into through-flow and blade-to-blade solutions. An industrially practical finite element through-flow solution is developed and for blade-to-blade solutions a transonic finite areas method is utilized. The finite element code developed is capable of operating in an analysis or a design mode. In both modes a dynamic relaxation factor is employed and considerable reduction in solution time can be achieved. Comparisons to streamline curvature methods are carried out for simple analytical and complex industrial problems.

    Notes: A variational formulation for the solution of two dimensional, incompressible viscous flows has been developed by one of the authors.1 The main objective of the present paper is to demonstrate the applicability of this approach for the solution of practical problems and in particular to investigate the introduction of boundary conditions to the Navier-Stokes equations through a variational formulation. The application of boundary conditions for typical internal and external flow problems is presented. Sample cases include flow around a cylinder and flow through a stepped channel.Quadrilateral, bilinear isoparametric elements are utilized in the formulation. A single-step, implicit, and fully coupled numerical integration scheme based on the variational principle is employed. Presented results include sample cases with different Reynolds numbers for laminar and turbulent flows. Turbulence is modelled using a simple mixing length model. Numerical results show good agreement with existing solutions.

    Notes: From the linearized, time-independent, constant depth, shallow water tidal equations in an f-plane for a two-layer estuary, two independent modal Helmholtz equations are derived. These modal equations are solved using a fifth-degree finite element technique. The first and second space derivatives of the complex modal tidal elevations, and thus the modal currents and their first derivatives, are evaluated directly from the solution at each node of the finite element mesh.The Stokes drift, which is the major part of the residual tidal flow, is evaluated from these nodal values of the currents and their derivatives. Good agreement is obtained with the exact analytical solution for a wedge-shaped estuary with a wedge angle of π/3, using a mesh of 64 equilateral triangles with sides approximately 1/10 of the wavelength 2πC2/σ of a Kelvin wave solution for the short-wavelength mode.

    Notes: The three dimensional linear hydrodynamic equations which describe wind induced flow in a sea are solved using the Galerkin method. A basis set of eigenfunctions is used in the calculation. These eigenfunctions are determined numerically using an expansion of B-splines.Using the Galerkin method the problem of wind induced flow in a rectangular basin is examined in detail. A no-slip bottom boundary condition with a vertically varying eddy viscosity distribution is employed in the calculation. With a low (of order 1 cm2/s) value of viscosity at the sea bed there is high current shear in this region. Viscosities of the order of 1 cm2/s) value of viscosity at the sea bed there is high current shear in this region. Viscosities of the order of 1 cm2/s near the sea bed together with high current shear in this region are physically realistic and have been observed in the sea.In order to accurately compute the eigenfunctions associated with large (of order 2000 cm2/s at the sea surface to 1 cm2/s at the sea bed) vertical variation of viscosity, an expansion of the order of thirty-five B-splines has to be used. The spline functions are distributed through the vertical so as to give the maximum resolution in the high shear region near the sea bed.Calculations show that in the case of a no-slip bottom boundary condition, with an associated region of high current shear near the sea bed, the Galerkin method with a basis set of the order of ten eigenfunctions (a Galerkin-eigenfunction method) yields an accurate solution of the hydrodynamic equations. However, solving the same problem using the Galerkin method with a basis set of B-splines, requires an expansion of the order of thirty-five spline functions in order to obtain the same accuracy.Comparisons of current profiles and time series of sea surface elevation computed using a model with a slip bottom boundary condition and a model with a no-slip boundary condition have been made. These comparisions show that consistent solutions are obtained from the two models when a physically relistic coefficient of bottom friction is used in the slip model, and a physically realistic bottom roughness length and thickness of the bottom boundary layer are employed in the no-slip model.

    Notes: Two numerical methods for solving the problem of solute transport in unsteady flow in unconfined aquifers are studied. They are the method of characteristics (MOC) based on the finite difference method (FDM), and the finite element method (FEM). The FEM is further subdivided into four schemes: moving mesh, pseudo-Lagrangian (FEM1); stationary mesh, pseudo-Lagrangian (FEM2); pseudo saturated-unsaturated, Eulerian (FEM3); and non-stationary element, Eulerian (FEM4).Experiments on a one-dimensional flow case are performed to illustrate the schemes and to determine the effect of discretization on accuracy. In two-dimensional flow the above methods are compared with experimental results from a sand box model. Results indicate that for a similar degree of accuracy, the FEM requires less computational effort than the MOC. Among the four FEM schemes, FEM4 appears to be most attractive as it is the most efficient and most convenient to apply.

Second-order, central difference approximations were used. Mesh refnement and extrapolation led to solutions for 103≤Ra≤10 6 which are believed to be accurate to better than 1 per cent at the highest Rayleigh number and down to one-tenth of that at the lowest value.

    Notes: A numerical model is developed to study the interactions of multiple angled jet flows in the inlet port plane of the Detroit Diesel 6V-92 two-stroke engine cylinder. The random vortex method is used in two dimensions.Results show axisymmetric swirl initially. As flow develops, the centre of the swirl moves to the mid-radius region and begins to precess about the cylinder centre. The flow becomes progressively more chaotic as time progresses.

    Notes: The use of the velocity-pressure formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations for the numerical solution of fluid flow problems is favoured for free-surface problems, more involved flow configurations, and three-dimensional flows. Many engineering problems involve such features in addition to strong inertial effects. The computational instabilities arising from central-difference schemes for the convective terms of the governing equations impose serious limitations on the range of Reynolds numbers that can be investigated by the numerical method. Solutions for higher Reynolds numbers Re 〉 1000 could be reached using upwind-difference schemes. A comparative study of both schemes using a method based on the primitive variables is presented. The comparison is made for the model problem of the driven flow in a square cavity. Using a central scheme stable solutions of the pressure and velocity fields were obtained for Reynolds numbers up to 5000. The streamfunction and vorticity fields were calculated from the resulting velocity field and compared with previous solutions. It is concluded that total upwind differencing results in a considerable change in the flow pattern due to the false diffusion. For practical calculations, by a proper choice of a small amount of partial upwind differencing the vorticity diffusion near the walls and the global features of the solutions are not sigificantly altered.

    Notes: The shallow-water equations in radial symmetry are solved numerically to simulate the collapse of a cylindrical liquid column into an area surrounded by a concentric dike. The following three subcases of this problem are considered: a liquid column collapsing onto a layer of the same liquid, a liquid column collapsing onto a solid surface, and a column of lighter liquid collapsing onto a heavier liquid (i.e. liquefied natural gas (LNG) spilled onto water). The results for the three categories are compared and the differences and similarities between them are analysed.

    Notes: A simple numerical model based on the shallow water equations in radial symmetry is used to simulate both instantaneous and continuous spills of liquefied natural gas (LNG) onto a water surface. Using the computed results, a study is made of the similarities and differences in the pool structure resulting from the two types of spills. For instantaneous spills a relation linear on a logarithmic plot is suggested between the maximum pool size and the spill volume. The effects of shear forces and surface cohesivity on the evolution of the spill are also examined.

    Notes: This paper presents a survey of several finite difference schemes for the steady-state convection-diffusion equation in one and two dimensions. Most difference schemes have O(h2) truncation error. The behaviour of these schemes on a one-dimensional model problem is analysed in detail, especially for the case when convection dominates diffusion. It is concluded that none of these schemes is universally second order. One recently proposed scheme is found to yield highly inaccurate solutions for the case of practical interest, i.e. when convection dominates diffusion. Extensions to two and threedimensions are also discussed.

    Notes: A formulation of a mixed finite element method for the analysis of unsteady, convective, incompressible viscous flow is presented in which: (i) the deviatoric-stress, pressure, and velocity are discretized in each element, (ii) the deviatoric stress and pressure are subject to the constraint of the homogeneous momentum balance condition in each element, a priori, (iii) the convective acceleration is treated by the conventional Galerkin approach, (iv) the finite element system of equations involves only the constant term of the pressure field (which can otherwise be an arbitrary polynomial) in each element, in addition to the nodal velocities, and (v) all integrations are performed by the necessary order quadrature rules. A fundamental analysis of the stability of the numerical scheme is presented. The method is easily applicable to 3-dimensional problems. However, solutions to several problems of 2-dimensional Navier-Stokes' flow, and their comparisons with available solutions in terms of accuracy and efficiency, are discussed in detail in Part II of this paper.

    Notes: This paper investigates the problems involved in the numerical simulation of free surface wave motions and surface wave effects on marine structures. Various approaches that might be taken in meeting these problems are discussed, and their relative advantages and disadvantages are considered. One particular approach combines a Lagrangian formulation of the governing equations, a triangular grid and a finite-difference solution procedure. Since this approach has some distinct advantages in the numerical calculation of fluid flows which include a free surface, it formed the basis for the development of one particular computer code, SPLISH. Sufficient progress has been made with the SPLISH code to demonstrate the attractiveness of numerical calculations for wave flow problems. Recent computational results demonstrate that realistic time-varying local flow fields, pressures and forces on and near structures such as a half-cyclinder on the ocean floor can be determined from numerical calculations for certain conditions. Good agreement is found in comparison of the numerical results from SPLISH, recent linear wave Green's function and fifth-order asymptotic solutions for wave motion over a bottom seated half-cylinder, and an experimental simulation in a wave channel.

    Notes: This paper presents an advanced method for a 2-dimensional analysis of transient natural convection by finite element method. The present method, based on stream function - vorticity formulation, could get rid of numerical errors and constraint of perpendicular mesh subdivision, since we excluded a finite difference approximation of vorticity on no-slip boundaries. A considerable effect of upwind weighting function was examined. The method was successfully applied to a problem of natural convection around a horizontal hot cylinder.

    Notes: The bbundary integral formulation and boundary element method are extended to include lifting flow problems. This involves inclusion of a branch cut in the flow field and imposition of a Kutta condition to determine the circulation, Γ Additional boundary integral contributions arise from the cut surface. Techniques for calculating Γ are developed and we treat, in particular, a superposition procedure which permits very efficient computation. Numerical results are presented for an NACA0012 aerofoil at several angles of attack.

    Notes: This paper presents the finite element method for the analysis of unsteady viscous flow of fluid at high Reynolds numbers. The method is based on the explicit numerical integration scheme in time and uses three node triangular finite elements. For the convenience of the formulation, slight compressibility is considered. For the explicit scheme, the selective lumping two step scheme has been successfully employed. Vortex shedding behind a cylinder has been computed and compared with the conventional experimental results. The results agree favourably when both schemes are compared.

    Notes: This paper derives the convection-diffusion-reaction equation governing the reaction between the dissolved oxygen in sea-water and the steel walls of a pulsating crack. By the neglect of the diffusion term it is shown that an exact solution of the convection-reaction equation can be obtained. A numerical method for the solution of the complete convection-diffusion-reaction equation is derived by the use of finite differences. The numerical computation of the initial transient and the final periodic steady-state values is also discussed.

The methods described in this paper operate directly in the physical space, and take advantage of the variational formulation of the partial differential equation modelling the flow. The techniques of optimal control, optimization and the finite element method are used. Numerical examples are also given.

    Notes: Upwind collocation on Hermite cubics is compared to orthogonal collocation with respect to effective diffusion. The one-dimensional constant coefficient advection-diffusion equation is employed to this end. The effective diffusion coefficient is determined exactly and is found to be dependent on the nodal solution values. The effective diffusion coefficients of three other upwinding schemes are also presented. Upwind collocation is found to have an effective diffusion coefficient like other upwinding schemes plus an extra term which may enhance or reduce the non-advective flux, depending on the problem solution and point location within the domain.

    Notes: A successful and economical fractional step algorithm for the convection-dispersion-reaction equation is described. Exact solutions are adopted for the reaction and convection steps, the latter by the introduction of a moving co-ordinate system. The dispersion step uses an optimized finite difference algorithm which specifically accommodates the grid non-uniformity. The excellent performance of the algorithm is confirmed by numerical experiments together with computations of the Fourier response and integrated square error characteristics.

    Notes: The spatially third-order accurate QUICK finite difference technique is applied to the solution of the depth-integrated equations of motion for steady, subcritical, free surface flow in a wide, shallow, rectangular channel with and without an abrupt expansion. The conservative, control-volume discretization of the equations of motion and the use of QUICK in approximating required cell and cell face average quantities is discussed. Results presented show that it is possible to obtain stable solutions for advective free surface flows without resorting to implicit numerical smoothing.

    Notes: Numerical noise has been a problem with finite element solutions to the shallow water equations. Two methods used to reduce the noise level are evaluated, and these results are compared with published results for equal-order interpolations. The two methods are mixed-interpolation (quadratic interpolation for velocity and linear interpolation for sea level) and a spectral form of the wave equation. Whereas mixed interpolation removes the troublesome sea level mode, it can still have considerable noise in velocity. The spectral wave equation is efficient and does not contain the spurious eigenmodes which contribute to high noise levels.

    Notes: A finite element stream function formulation is presented for the solution to the two-dimensional double-glazing problem. Laminar flow with constant properties is considered and the Boussinesq approximation used. A restricted variational principle is used, in conjunction with a triangular finite element of C1 continuity, to discretize the two coupled governing partial differential equations (4th order in stream function and second order in temperature). The resulting non-linear system of equations is solved in a segregated (decoupled) manner by the Newton-Raphson linearizing technique.Results are produced for the standard test case of an upright square cavity. These are for Rayleigh numbers in the range 103-105, with a Prandtl number of 0.71. Comparisons are made with benchmark results presented at the 1981 International Comparison study in Venice. In the discussion of results, emphasis is placed on the variation of local Nusselt number along the isothermal walls, particularly near the corner. This reveals a noticeable source of error in the evaluation of the maximum Nusselt number by lower order discretization methods.

    Notes: A finite element model to tackle the moving boundary problem of wave run-up on moderately steep slopes is developed. The special aspects considered in this study are (1) the modification of shallow water equations to accommodate the effect of vertical accelerations and (2) the use of Lagrangian acceleration coupled with an element that adapts itself to the moving boundary closely. The pressure term in the one-dimensional momentum equation is derived using the Eulerian equation in the vertical direction. This takes care of the vertical accelerations which are significant during the motion of a wave on moderately steep slopes. The element near the boundary is allowed to change its dimension so that the fluid boundary is closely followed. Such a flexible element precludes the need for approximation of the variables with regard to the indefinite position of the boundary. This element is split into two when its dimension becomes unduly large compared to the unchanging elements. The need for such a splitting is shown by an examination of the entries in the global matrix. Results of water profile as a wave runs up a structure are given. A brief history of the work on similar problems is outlined.

    Notes: Previous papers12 have drawn attention to the sustained oscillations (‘noise’) in the solution by successive over-relaxation of the equations from the finite difference approximation of regional groundwater flow including ephemeral streams. This paper shows that the trouble can be avoided by introducing an averaging step in the algorithm; the trouble can also be avoided by ‘under-relaxation’ but this is far less efficient than averaging.
