In their review of calculation methods for flow on airfoils, Cebeci, Stewartson, and Whitelaw [1] discussed the relative merits of procedures which solve Reynolds-averaged two-dimensional forms of the Navier—S
The proof of both those results relies on energy estimates, the main ingredient consisting (formally) in the first case in multiplying scalarly the system by u, and by ∇u in the second—of course there is much more to the proofs than that calculation, and we refer to [36] and [20...
whereuis the divergence free velocity field satisfying the Bio-Savart lawandis a white-in time, colored-in-space Gaussian forcing assumed to be diagonalizable with respect to the Fourier basis. The parameterrepresents the kinematic viscosity; the noise has been scaled with a matchingso that the d...
It is typically chosen for its suitability for three-dimensional simulation with low calculation and time penalty. In the most basic case, Stokes’ law states that a single sphere of radius a, travelling with a velocity U in an unbounded Newtonian fluid of viscosity μ, in a low Reynolds ...
(y-axis). To avoid confinement effects, we exclude the regions close to the planar substrates from our calculation. For small flow velocities, the local pressure behind the cylindrical pillar is, on average, constant along they-axis. If flow is increased (seeFig. 4a), the local pressure ...
In this section, we develop estimates for the error in calculation of Stokes drag when the disturbed fluid velocity is used in place of the undisturbed fluid velocity. The model problem we consider will test the accuracy of the point particle model in a regime where the Stokes formula is know...
6.3 The capillary relaxation of an ellipse Let's test our theory on an example of a large amplitude perturbation. We calculate the capillary relaxation of boundary with initial shape x12 a2 x22 b2 1 in two ways - using the numerical calculation based on (6.4) and the finite-...
In this calculation, the surface of the airfoil is assumed to be impermeable. 2. A boundary layer calculation is performed using as an input the pressure obtained in the first step at the wall of the airfoil. 3. A new inviscid flow calculation is performed. During this step, the boundary...

By a simple calculation, we get that ‖m113‖L1 ≲ s ,− n+2−2β 2β and so, if the multi-index α satisfies |α| = n + 1, then ‖∂ αξ m113 ‖L1 ≲ 1. Thus, an integration by parts derives that the kernel K113 of m113 enjoys |K113(x)| ≲ min{s− ...
