Effects of rarefaction on cavity flow in the slip regime
TL;DR: In this article, the Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations, with boundary conditions that account for the effects of velocity-slip and temperature-jump, are compared to the direct simulation Monte Carlo method for the case of a lid-driven micro-cavity.
Journal ArticleDOI
A phenomenological and extended continuum approach for modelling non-equilibrium flows
TL;DR: In this paper, a new technique that combines Grad's 13-moment equations (G13) with a phenomenological approach to rarefied gas flows is presented, which does not require extra boundary conditions explicitly; Grad equations for viscous stress and heat flux are used as constitutive relations for the conservation equations instead of being solved as equations of transport.
Journal ArticleDOI
Computational framework for the regularized 20-moment equations for non-equilibrium gas flows
TL;DR: In this article, a framework for solving the regularized 20-moment equations consisting of a set of transport-like governing equations, the required constitutive closure, re-casting of the equations in second-order partial derivative form and derivation of additional wall boundary conditions is presented.

High pressure compressor thermal management
TL;DR: A gas turbine engine includes an inner shaft extending axially along the gas turbine, a plurality of disks extending radially inwardly and toward the inner shaft, at least one hole in one of the disks, such that a bore flow that flows along an axial length of the internal shaft is obstructed from flowing along the shaft by an obstruction, and forced to flow radially outward from the obstruction, through the obstruction as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploring the effects of speed and scale on a ship's form factor using CFD
TL;DR: In this article, an attempt is made to investigate whether the form factor is influenced by a change in the ship's speed by numerically modelling a geosim series of the KCS hull form by means of a RANS solver.
