An Immersed Boundary Method for Polymeric Continuous Mixing

Numerical Analysis 2024-08-12 v1 Numerical Analysis

Abstract

We introduce a new implementation of the Immersed Boundary method in the finite-volume library OpenFOAM. The implementation is tailored to the simulation of temperature-dependent non-Newtonian polymeric flows in complex moving geometries, such as those characterizing the most popular polymeric mixing technologies.
