Compared with pure gridless method, the efficiency of the hybrid algorithm is improved to the level of finite volume method for most parts of the flow filed arc covered with grid cells. Moreover, the hybrid method is flexible to deal with the configurations as clouds of points are used to cover the region adjacent to the bodies. Mirror satellites and mirror grid cells arc introduced to the interface to accomplish data communication between the different parts of the flow field. The Euler Equations arc spatially discretized with finite volume method and gridless method in mesh and clouds of points respectively, and an explicit four-stage Runge-Kutta scheme is utilized to reach the steady-state solution. Internal flows in channels and external flows over airfoils arc investigated with hybrid method, and the solutions arc comparad to those using pure finite volume method and pure gridless method. Numerical examples show that the hybrid algorithm captures the shock waves accurately, and it is as efficient as fmite volume method.展开更多

The hybrid MG is made of a solar photovoltaic (PV) system, wind turbine (TW) and energy storage system (ESS). The reliability of the MG system is modeled based on the loss of power supply probability (SPSP). For optimization, an enhanced Genetic Algorithm (GA) is used to minimize the total cost of the system over a 20-year period, while satisfying some reliability and operation constraints. A case study addressing optimal sizing of an off-grid hybrid microgrid in Nigeria is discussed. The result is compared with results obtained from the Brute Force and standard GA methods.展开更多

The near body region is discretized by using the body-fitted structured grids, while the remaining computational domain is tessellated with the generated Cartesian grids. As the body moves, the structured grids move with the body and the outer boundaries of inside grids are used to generate new holes in the outside adaptive Cartesian grid to facilitate data communication. By using the alternating digital tree (ADT) algorithm, the computational time of hole-cutting and identification of donor cells can be reduced significantly. A compressible solver for unsteady flow problems is developed. A cell-centered, second-order accurate finite volume method is employed in spatial discreti- zation and an implicit dual-time stepping low-upper symmetric Gauss-Seidei (LU-SGS) approach is employed in temporal discretization. Geometry-based adaptation is used during unsteady simulation time steps when boundary moves and the flow solution is interpolated from the old Cartesian grids to the new one with inverse distance weigh- ting interpolation formula. Both laminar and turbulent unsteady cases are tested to demonstrate the accuracy and efficiency of the proposed method. Then, a 2-D store separation problem is simulated. The result shows that the hybrid Cartesian grid method can handle the unsteady flow problems involving large-scale moving boundaries.展开更多
