Employing physically-consistent numerical methods is an important step towards attaining robust and accurate numerical simulations. When addressing compressible flows, in addition to preserving kinetic energy at a discrete level, as done in…
A modified Reynolds equation governing the steady flow of a fluid with low Reynolds number through a curvilinear, narrow tube, with its derivation from Stokes equations through asymptotic methods is presented. The channel considered may…
A numerical framework for rigorous linear stability analysis of two-phase stratified flows of two immiscible fluids in horizontal circular pipes is presented. For the first time, three-dimensional disturbances, including those at the…
We present the results of an experimental and numerical investigation of a turbulent flow over a backward-facing step in a channel. Experimental data are visualized using a Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) device. As a mathematical model we…
A new linear relaxation system for nonconservative hyperbolic systems is introduced, in which a nonlocal source term accounts for the nonconservative product of the original system. Using an asymptotic analysis the relaxation limit and its…
Slug flows are a typical intermittent two-phase flow pattern that can occur in submarine pipelines connecting the wells to the production facility and that is known to cause undesired consequences. In this context, computational fluid…
This paper presents a geometric variational discretization of compressible fluid dynamics. The numerical scheme is obtained by discretizing, in a structure preserving way, the Lie group formulation of fluid dynamics on diffeomorphism groups…
We consider the simulation of barotropic flow of gas in long pipes and pipe networks. Based on a Hamiltonian reformulation of the governing system, a fully discrete approximation scheme is proposed using mixed finite elements in space and…
A new formulation of physical thermal models for variable plug flow through a pipe is proposed. The derived model is based on a commonly used one-dimensional distributed parameter model, which explicitly takes into account the heat capacity…
A streamwise-constant model is presented to investigate the basic mechanisms responsible for the change in mean flow occuring during pipe flow transition. Using a single forced momentum balance equation, we show that the shape of the…
In this study, we develop computational models and methodology for accurate multi-component-flow simulation in under-resolved multi-scale porous structures. It is generally impractical to fully resolve the flow in porous structures with…
We present a novel approach to kinetic theory modeling enabling the simulation of a generic, real gas presented by its corresponding equation of state. The model is based on mass, momentum and energy conservation, and unlike the lattice…
We present control-oriented models for transient dynamics of isothermal one-dimensional gas flow through multiple pipes in series and intersecting pipe geometries. These composite models subsume algebraic constraints that would otherwise…
Numerical simulation of compressible fluid flows is performed using the Euler equations. They include the scalar advection equation for the density, the vector advection equation for the velocity and a given pressure dependence on the…
A low diffusive flux difference splitting based kinetic scheme is developed based on a discrete velocity Boltzmann equation, with a novel three velocity model. While two discrete velocities are used for upwinding, the third discrete…
We present a generalized form of open boundary conditions, and an associated numerical algorithm, for simulating incompressible flows involving open or outflow boundaries. The generalized form represents a family of open boundary…
We formulate two estimation problems for pipeline systems in which measurements of compressible gas flow through a network of pipes is affected by time-varying injections, withdrawals, and compression. We consider a state estimation problem…
We develop a semi-implicit algorithm for time-accurate simulation of the compressible Navier-Stokes equations, with special reference to wall-bounded flows. The method is based on linearization of the partial convective fluxes associated…
Spatially-periodic channels are increasingly attracting attention as an efficient alternative to packed columns for a number of analytical and engineering processes. In incompressible flows, the periodic geometry allows to compute the flow…
