    Notes: This paper introduces a vertex-centred finite volume method for compressible viscous flow incorporating a new shock detection procedure. The discretization is designed to be robust and accurate on the highly stretched and curved meshes necessary for resolving turbulent boundary layers around the leading edge of an aerofoil. Details of the method are described for two-dimensional problems and the natural extension of three-dimensional multiblock meshes is discussed. The shock detection procedure is used to limit the range of the shock-capturing dissipation specifically to regions containing shocks. For transonic turbulent flow this is shown to improve the boundary layer representation significantly.

    Notes: A penalty function, finite volume method is described for two-dimensional laminar and turbulent flows. Turbulence is modelled using the k-∊ model. The governing equations are discretized and the resulting algebraic equations are solved using both sequential and coupled methods. The performance of these methods is gauged with reference to a tuned SIMPLE-C algorithm. Flows considered are a square cavity with a sliding top, a plane channel flow, a plane jet impingement and a plane channel with a sudden expansion. A sequential method is employed, which uses a variety of dicretization practices, but is found to be extremely slow to converge; a coupled method, evaluated using a variety of matrix solvers, converges rapidly but, relative to the sequential approach, requires larger memory.

    Notes: A free-surface-tracking algorithm based on the SOLA-VOF method is analysed for numerical stability when modelling gas bubble evolution in a fluid. It is shown that an instability can arise from the fact that the bubble pressure varies with its volume. A time step stability criterion is introduced which is a function of the natural oscillation period but does not depend on the mesh size. This dependence suggests that the instability is likely to arise in the case of a general motion of a bubble, especially if break-up occurs. The effect is shown using linear Fourier analysis of the discretized equation for radial bubble oscillation and demonstrated numerically using a CFD code FLOW-3D. One- and three-dimensional situations are considered: a bubble in a fluid bounded by two concentric surfaces and a bubble floating in a fluid chamber with and without gravity. In cases where no analytical solution is available, a numerical method for the stability time step limit calculation is suggested based on finding the natural oscillation frequency.The nature of the instability suggests that it can be a feature of any numerical algorithm which models transient fluid flow with a free surface.

    Notes: An existing two-dimensional method for the prediction of steady-state incompressible flows in complex geometry is extended to treat also compressible flows at all speeds. The primary variables are the Cartesian velocity components, pressure and temperature. Density is linked to pressure via an equation of state. The influence of pressure on density in the case of compressible flows is implicitly incorporated into the extended SIMPLE algorithm, which in the limit of incompressible flow reduces to its well-known form. Special attention is paid to the numerical treatment of boundary conditions. The method is verified on a number of test cases (inviscid and viscous flows), and both the results and convergence properties compare favourably with other numerical results available in the literature.

    Notes: The computation of incompressible three-dimensional viscous flow is investigated. An iterative fully decoupled technique based on the fully elliptic mode is applied to the Reynolds-averaged-Navier-Stokes equations (RANSE) written down in a non-orthogonal curvilinear body-fitted co-ordinate system. Results of the computations are compared with experimental data past a prolate spheroid at 30° incidence.

    Notes: This paper summarizes a combined analytical-computational technique which models vortex sheets in transonic potential-flow methods. In this approach, the inviscid nature of discontinuities across vortex sheets is preserved by employing the step function to remove singularities at these surfaces. The location and strength of the vortex sheets are determined by satisfying the flow-tangency boundary condition and the vorticity transport equation. The theory is formulated for the general three-dimensional case, but its application is confined to the problem of computing slipstreams behind propellers with free-vortex blading in axisymmetric flows.

    Notes: A kinetic flux-vector-splitting method has been used to solve the Euler equations for inviscid, compressible flow on unstructured grids. This method is derived from the Boltzmann equation and is an upwind, cell-centered, finite volume scheme with an explicit time-stepping procedure. The Delaunay triangulation has been used to generate the grids. The approach is demonstrated for three flow field simulations, namely the subsonic flow over a two-component high-lift aerofoil, the transonic flow over an aerofoil and the supersonic flow in a channel.

    Notes: A compact, finite volume, time-marching scheme for the two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations of viscous fluid flow is presented. The scheme is designed for unstructured (locally refined) quadrilateral meshes. An earlier inviscid equation (Euler) scheme is employed for the convective terms and the emphasis is on treatment of the viscous terms. An essential feature of the algorithm is that all necessary operations are restricted to within each cell, which is very important when dealing with unstructured grids. Numerical issues which have to be addressed when developing a Navier-Stokes scheme are investigated. These issues are not limited to the particular Navier-Stokes scheme developed in the present work but are general problems. Specifically, the extent of the numerical molecule, which is related to the compactness of the scheme and to its suitability for unstructured grids, is examined. An approach which considers suppression of odd-even mode decoupling of the solution when designing a scheme is presented. In addition, accuracy issues related to grid stretching as well as boundary layer solution contamination due to artificial dissipation are addressed. Although the above issues are investigated with respect to the specific scheme presented, the conclusions are valid for an entire class of finite volume algorithms. The Navier-Stokes solver is validated through test cases which involve comparisons with analytical, numerical and experimental results. The solver is coupled to an adaptive algorithm for high-Reynolds-number aerofoil flow computations.

    Notes: Four problems of fluid flow and heat transfer were designed in which non-orthogonal, boundary-fitted grids were to be used. These are proposed to serve as test cases for testing new solution methods. This paper presents solutions of the test problems obtained by using a multigrid finite volume method with grids of up to 320 × 320 control volumes. Starting from zero fields, iterations were performed until the sum of the absolute residuals had fallen seven orders of magnitude, thus ensuring that the variable values did not change to six most significant digits. By comparing the solutions for successive grids at moderate Reynolds and Rayleigh numbers, the discretization errors were estimated to be lower than 0·1%. The results presented in this paper may thus serve for comparison purposes as bench-mark solutions.

    Notes: This paper addresses the spin-up from rest of a free-surface fluid confined in a cylindrical container with a semicircular cross-section. The flow in the various stages of the spin-up process has been calculated numerically by using the finite-volume technique on a three-dimensional grid. Local grid refinement was applied in order to capture the effects of the boundary layer at the lateral boundaries and of the Ekman layer at the bottom. The numerical results agree very well with laboratory observations.

    Notes: A finite volume method for the calculation of laminar and turbulent fluid flows inside constricted tubes and ducts is described. The selected finite volume method is based on curvilinear non-orthogonal co-ordinates (body-fitted co-ordinates) and a non-staggered grid arrangement. The grids are either generated by transfinite interpolation or an elliptic grid generator. The method is employed for calculation of laminar flows through a tube, a converging-diverging duct and different constricted tubes by both a two- and a three-dimensional computer program. In addition, turbulent flow through an axisymmetric constricted tube is calculated. Both the power law scheme and the second-order upwind scheme are used. The calculated results are compared with the experimental data and with other numerical solutions.

    Notes: A time-accurate solution method for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in generalized moving coordinates is presented. A finite volume discretization method that satisfies the geometric conservation laws for time-varying computational cells is used. The discrete equations are solved by a fractional step solution procedure. The solution is second-order-accurate in space and first-order-accurate in time. The pressure and the volume fluxes are chosen as the unknowns to facilitate the formulation of a consistent Poisson equation and thus to obtain a robust Poisson solver with favourable convergence properties. The method is validated by comparing the solutions with other numerical and experimental results. Good agreement is obtained in all cases.

    Notes: The PHOENICS code has been used to model the flow field surrounding subsonic and underexpanded jets impinging on a ground plane in the presence of a cross-flow, for cases with both a fixed ground plane and a ‘rolling road’. The standard k-ε turbulence model is used, without correction factors. It is confirmed that this overpredicts the free jet entrainment rate; the wall jet spreading rate is slightly underpredicted but the initial thickness is too high. Agreement with experiment is, nevertheless, much better than for previous calculations, showing the importance of the extent of the grid used. The ground vortex formed in cross-flow is shown to move with varying effective velocity ratio and with rolling road operation in the same manner as experimentally observed. Ground vortex self-similarity is also accurately predicted with the numerical modelling.

    Notes: In this paper a method is presented that can be used for both the Lagrangian and the Eulerian solution of the Navier-Stokes equations in a domain of arbitrary shape, bounded by boundaries which move in any prescribed time-varying fashion. The method uses the integral form of the governing equations for an arbitrary moving control volume, with pressure and Cartesian velocity components as dependent variables. Care is taken to also satisfy the space conservation law, which ensures a fully conservative computational procedure. Fully implicit temporal differencing makes the method stable for any time step.A detailed description is provided for the discretization in two dimensions, with a collocated arrangement of variables. Central differences are used to evaluate both the convection and diffusion fluxes. The well known SIMPLE algorithm is employed for pressure-velocity coupling. The resulting algebraic equation systems are solved iteratively in a sequential manner. Results are presented for a flow in a channel with a moving indentation; they show favourable agreement with experimental observations.

    Notes: A new finite volume (FV) approach with adaptive upwind convection is used to predict the two-dimensional unsteady flow in a square cavity. The fluid is air and natural convection is induced by differentially heated vertical walls. The formulation is made in terms of the vorticity and the integral velocity (induction) law. Biquadratic interpolation formulae are used to approximate the temperature and vorticity fields over the finite volumes, to which the conservation laws are applied in integral form. Image vorticity is used to enforce the zero-penetration condition at the cavity walls. Unsteady predictions are carried sufficiently forward in time to reach a steady state. Results are presented for a Prandtl number (Pr) of 0-71 and Rayleigh numbers equal to 103, 104 and 105. Both 11 × 11 and 21 × 21 meshes are used. The steady state predictions are compared with published results obtained using a finite difference (FD) scheme for the same values of Pr and Ra and the same meshes, as well as a numerical bench-mark solution. For the most part the FV predictions are closer to the bench-mark solution than are the FD predictions.

    Notes: A finite volume multigrid procedure for the prediction of laminar natural convection flows is presented, enabling efficient and accurate calculations on very fine grids. The method is fully conservative and uses second-order central differencing for convection and diffusion fluxes. The calculations start on a coarse (typically 10 × 10 control volumes) grid and proceed to finer grids until the desired accuracy or maximum affordable storage is reached. The computing times increase thereby linearly with the number of control volumes.Solutions are presented for the flow in a closed cavity with side walls at different temperatures and insulated top and bottom walls. Rayleigh numbers of 104, 105 and 106 are considered. Grids as fine as 640 × 640 control volumes are used and the results are believed to be accurate to within 0-01%. Second-order monotonic convergence to grid-independent values is observed for all predicted quantities.
