The streamline upwind finite element method is used for the analysis of thermal viscous flow in the fluid region, whereas the analysis of heat conduction in solid region is performed by the Galerkin method. The method uses the three-node triangular element with equal-order interpolation functions for all the variables of the velocity components, the pressure and the temperature. The main advantage of the proposed method is to consistently couple heat transfer along the fluid-solid interface. Three test cases, i.e. conjugate Couette flow problem in parallel plate channel, counter-flow in heat exchanger, and conjugate natural convection in a square cavity with a conducting wall, are selected to evaluate the efficiency of the present method.展开更多

The SUPG stabilization technique is employed for the for- mulation of momentum equations. Using the penalty function method, the continuity equation is simplified and the pres- sure of the momentum equations is eliminated. The lid-driven cavity flow problem is solved using the present model. It is shown that steady flow simulations are computable up to Re = 27500, and the present results agree well with previous solutions.

The streamline upwind/Petrov-Galerkin (SUPG) stabilization scheme is used for the formulation of the Navier-Stokes equations. For the spatial discretization, the convection term is treated explicitly, while the viscous term is treated implicitly, and for the temporal discretization, a three-step method is employed. The present method is applied to simulate the lid driven cavity problems with different geometries at low and high Reynolds numbers. The results compared with other numerical experiments are found to be feasible and satisfactory.展开更多

With good stability and two-order accuracy, the method was directly employed to the original equations,and tested in a square cavity with constant lateral heating. The steady-state results are approximate to the tendency of the time-dependent results by pressure-velocity (PV) coupling method. Nunerical simulation in a square cavity with adiabatic baffle and constant lateral heating was achieved with distribution of stream function, temperature and concentration isocontours under Thermal Raleigh Number Re= 106 and the thermal buoyancy ratio covering the ramp of N = 1, 3, 5, 7. Meanwhile, the effects of N and the adiabatic baffle to the fluid field were ho discussed.展开更多
