This numerical study presents the results of simulations of stably stratified wall-bounded flows. The effect of artificial far-field boundary conditions is studied in detail. The standard homogeneous Neumann condition for pressure is replaced by a non-homogeneous condition depending on local velocity and its gradient. The two-dimensional tests are performed for the case of flow over a low isolated hill. The simulations on computational domains with three different heights are discussed to evaluate the performance of the new far-field artificial boundary condition. The model is based on Boussinesq approximation of non-homogeneous Navier-Stokes equations, solved using artificial compressibility method, looking for a steady solution.
This work presents the numerical solution of generalized Newtonian fluids in the bypass geometry. The considered geometry consists of the narrowed host tube and the bypass graft with 30, 45, 60 degrees angle of the connection. Two values of the Reynolds number, 100, 200, are tested. The numerical results of non-Newtonian fluids are compared to the results of Newtonian fluids. The governing system of equations is based on the system of balance laws for mass and momentum. Generalized Newtonian fluids flow in the bypass tube is numerically simulated by using SIMPLE algorithm included in OpenFOAM.
