Velocity Correction Scheme for All Speed Flows
Abstract We present a velocity correction scheme that is suitable for the simulation of the broad range of Mach number flows. The scheme is based on the primitive variable no-iterative…
Improvements to numerical schemes in Caelus
Abstract The Caelus library is a general purpose numerical framework for the solution of the continuum mechanics problems. The framework is a derivative of the OpenFOAM® library with an emphasis…
Verification and Validation Caelus – Incompressible Solvers
Abstract Recent years have witnessed a significant proliferation of numerical libraries being used in computational continuum mechanics. While the appearance of open source codes in general, is a positive development,…
Verification and Validation of Caelus – Incompressible Turbulence Models
Abstract Incompressible turbulence models have been implemented in Caelus, a general purpose numerical framework, to enable computations of turbulent incompressible flows. While other open source libraries and CFD solvers implement…
Cyclone simulation and validation using Caelus
Abstract Cyclone separators play a dominant role in the industrial separation of dilute particles from an incoming gas flow. The incoming flow enters tangentially and accelerates on its way down…
Mixing of bluff body jets – Experimental and numerical investigation
Abstract Bluff body shapes are used to promote better heat and mass transfer in various industrial flow situations, flow past them serving to enhance turbulence and thereby promote mixing, primarily…
Projection Method Fast Transient Solver
Abstract Fast transient solution of incompressible turbulent flows still occupy a dominant place in engineering computations. Majority of the solvers that use finite volume method on unstructured meshes with the…
SLIM – Fast Transient Solver for Incompressible Turbulent Flows
Abstract This paper presents a fast transient solver suitable for the simulation of transient turbulent flows. The main characteristic of the solver is that it is based on the projection…
