Vortex Element Methods for Fluid Dynamic Analysis of Engineering - System

Zusammenfassung This book deals with advanced fluid flow methods for design and analysis of engineering systems. Part 1 describes the surface vorticity method and illustrates applications of this technique! while Part 2 extends surface vorticity modelling to the fairly new CFM field of vortex dynamics or vortex cloud theory. A number of useful computer programs are included. Inhaltsverzeichnis Part I. The Surface Vorticity Boundary Integral Method of Fluid Flow Analysis: 1. The basis of surface singularity modelling; 2. Lifting bodies, two-dimensional aerofoils and cascades; 3. Mixed-flow and radial cascades; 4. Bodies of revolution, ducts and annuli; 5. Ducted propellers and fans; 6. Three-dimensional and meridional flows in turbo-machines; 7. Free vorticity shear layers and inverse methods; Part II. Vortex Dynamics and Vortex Cloud Analysis: 8. Vortex dynamics in inviscid flows; 9. Simulation of viscous diffusion in discrete vortex modelling; 10. Vortex cloud modelling by the boundary integral method; 11. Further development and applications of vortex cloud modelling to lifting bodies and cascades; 12. Use of grid systems in vortex dynamics and meridional flows; Appendix.
