In this paper, the geometry of solution trajectories for three first-order coupled linear differential equations can be related and classified using three matrix invariants for elementary three-dimensional flow patterns defined by instantaneous streamlines for flow at and away from no slip boundaries for both compressible and incompressible flow.Abstract:
The geometry of solution trajectories for three first‐order coupled linear differential equations can be related and classified using three matrix invariants. This provides a generalized approach to the classification of elementary three‐dimensional flow patterns defined by instantaneous streamlines for flow at and away from no‐slip boundaries for both compressible and incompressible flow. Although the attention of this paper is on the velocity field and its associated deformation tensor, the results are valid for any smooth three‐dimensional vector field. For example, there may be situations where it is appropriate to work in terms of the vorticity field or pressure gradient field. In any case, it is expected that the results presented here will be of use in the interpretation of complex flow field data.read more

TL;DR: In this paper, the rigid vorticity transporporporation of the vortex is investigated in hydro-energy machinery, and its swirling features are mainly determined by the rigid rotation part of vortivity.

Parametric study of Liutex-based force field models
TL;DR: Liutex force field model has been used in this paper to construct a source term using Liutex and directly add it to the Navier-Stokes equations, which can effectively strengthen or weaken the vortical structures.
