  • Outflow velocity for Simple Algorithm for unsteady forced convection flows with variable density
    International Communications in Heat and Mass Transfer, 2018
    Co-Authors: Yutaka Asako, Mohammad Faghri, Lit Ken Tan, Nor Azwadi Che Sidik
    Abstract:

    Abstract The Simple Algorithm for the pressure-velocity coupling has been adopted by many commercial and non-commercial CFD codes. The Simple Algorithm requires all normal velocities at the boundaries before solving the pressure correction equation. These velocities must imply an overall mass balance. In this paper, a new procedure to recalculate the outflow velocity for the Neumann type outflow boundary for forced convection with variable density is proposed. As an example of the utilization of this procedure, the outflow normal velocity of a circular duct was computed and the results were compared with the results using the new modified procedure.

  • Modification of Simple Algorithm to handle supercritical natural circulation in a loop
    International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2018
    Co-Authors: Yutaka Asako, Manish Sharma
    Abstract:

    Abstract The conventional Simple Algorithm for the pressure–velocity coupling has been adopted by many commercial CFD codes. Since it encounters convergence problem when it is used for numerical analysis of a two-dimensional unsteady natural convection flow in a rectangular cavity with zero-isothermal compressibility, the modification of Simple Algorithm has been proposed for such a fluid. In this paper, differences between solutions for a one dimensional natural circulation of a super-critical carbon dioxide in a loop with a horizontal heater and a horizontal cooler configuration obtained by using the conventional Simple Algorithm and the modified version of the Algorithm are investigated. The modification of the Algorithm includes updating the density at each time step based on its value at the previous time step to satisfy the mass conservation. The differences of the velocity and temperature are relatively small comparing with the two-dimensional natural convection case. As an example of utilizing the modified Simple Algorithm, characteristics of the unsteady natural circulation of super-critical carbon dioxide in a rectangular loop are revealed.

  • modification of Simple Algorithm to handle natural convection flows with zero isothermal compressibility
    International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2017
    Co-Authors: Yutaka Asako, Mohammad Faghri
    Abstract:

    The conventional Simple Algorithm for the pressure–velocity coupling has been adopted by many commercial and non-commercial CFD codes. It encounters convergence problem when it is used to solve unsteady natural convection flows with zero-isothermal compressibility. In this paper, a modified version of this Algorithm is proposed to remedy this drawback. The modification includes updating of the density at each time step based on its value at the previous time step to satisfy the continuity equation. As an example of utilizing the modified Simple Algorithm, the unsteady natural convection in a rectangular cavity with isothermal vertical walls and adiabatic horizontal walls was computed. Physically consistent results were obtained.
