The flow field in an inertial impactor was studied experimentally with a water model by means of a flow visualization technique. The influence of such parameters as Reynolds number and jet-to-plate distance on the flow field was determined. The Navier-Stokes equations describing the laminar flow field in the impactor were solved numerically by means of a finite difference relaxation method. The theoretical results were found to be in good agreement with the empirical observations made with the water model.

The Navier-Stokes equations and the equation of continuity describing the flow in the flat-faced nozzle-flapper valve are numerically solved by the iterative relaxation method and the effect of the flow contraction (vena contracta) occurring in the radial gap in the valve is investigated. Furthermore, an approximate formula for the flow force acting on the flapper is derived on the basis of the numerical solutions. The formula for the flow force is in good agreement with experimental results.

Abstract An over-relaxation procedure, that includes weighing factors, is applied to the steady, two-dimensional Navier-Stokes equations in order to reduce the computational time. The benefits obtained from this strategy are illustrated by the problem of viscous flow in the entrance region of an unconstricted and a constricted channel. The describing equations are expressed in terms of the stream function and vorticity. The convergence domain for the Successive Over-Relaxation method and the optimum values of the accelerating parameters, which consist of the over-relaxation and weighting factors for both the stream function and vorticity, are discussed. Numerical solutions are obtained for Reynolds numbers ranging from 20 to 2000. The computer time is reduced by as much as a factor of six using the optimum values of the accelerating parameters.

An implicit upwind scheme has been developed for Navier–Stokes simulations of unsteady flows in transonic cascades. The two-dimensional, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations are discretized in space using a cell-centered finite volume formulation and in time using the Euler implicit method. The inviscid fluxes are evaluated using a highly accurate upwind scheme based on a TVD formulation with the Roe’s approximate Riemann solver, and the viscous fluxes are determined in a central differencing manner. The algebraic turbulence model of Baldwin and Lomax is employed. To simplify grid generations, a zonal approach with a composite zonal grid system is implemented, in which periodic boundaries are treated as zonal boundaries. A new time linearization of the inviscid fluxes evaluated by Roe’s approximate Riemann solver is presented in detail. No approximate factorization is introduced, and unfactored equations are solved by a pointwise relaxation method. To obtain time-accurate solutions, 30 linear iterations are performed at each time step. Numerical examples are presented for unsteady flows in a transonic turbine cascade where periodic unsteadiness is caused by the trailing edge vortex shedding.
