Numerical Investigation of the Three- Dimensional Secondary Instabilities in the Time-developing Compressible Mixing Layer
Ricardo Alberto Coppola Germanos,Leandro Franco de Souza,Marcello Augusto Faraco de Medeiros +2 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the instability of two-and three-dimensional perturbations in the compressible mixing layer was investigated by numerical simulations, and the results demonstrated the applicability of the theory developed by Pierrehumbet and Widnall.
Development of a code for a direct numerical simulation of compressible shear flow instabilities
TL;DR: In this article, the instability of the compressible free shear layer at relatively low Reynolds number was investigated and the spatial derivatives of these equations were discretized through of the high-order finite difference method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of dispersion errors in acoustic wave simulations
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed numerical simulations of a standing acoustic wave and tested four different space discretization schemes, namely, a second order finite difference, a fourth order finitedifferences, a four order finite-differences compact scheme and a sixth order finite differences compact scheme.
Book ChapterDOI
Natural Transition in Plane Poiseuille Flow
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical and theoretical results on the natural transition in a plane Poiseuille flow, which is often studied in boundary layers, but the analysis in a parallel flow allows the use of the Reynolds number as a control parameter.
Book ChapterDOI
Nonlinear Interaction Between Wavepackets in Plane Poiseuille Flow
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented numerical results and analysis related to natural transition in a plane Poiseuille flow with three-dimentional wavepackets and showed that the interactions between wavepacket leads to oblique transition.
