The physical mechanisms of frost formation have been widely studied, yet much empirism is still needed in numerical approaches. Indeed, accurate simulations of frost growth can be reached by setting up a specific combination ...

We present a GPU-accelerated solver for the partitioned solution of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. Independent scalable fluid and structure solvers are coupled by a library which handles the inter-code data ...

A finite-volume based conservative level-set method is presented to numerically solve the non-Newtonian multiphase flow problems. One set of governing equations is written for the whole domain, and different phases are ...

This paper is concerned with numerical solution of fluid-structure inter-action (FSI) problems involving an incompressible viscous flow and an elasticstructure. A semi-implicit partitioned method with second-order ...

In this study, numerical simulations of binary droplet collisions of two GNF droplets are carried out. Navier-Stokes equations are solved for fluid motion both inside and outside of the droplet using a conservative ...

The operation of self-actuated valves in suction and discharge processes plays a crucial role in the thermal efficiency and structural reliability of hermetic reciprocating compressors. The present work provides a thorough ...

This paper presents a complete numerical procedure to study the fluid-structure interaction problem of incompressible flow through reed valves, typically employed in hermetic reciprocating compressors. A partitioned ...

This paper is concerned with numerical solution of fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems involving an incompressible viscous flow and an elastic structure. A second-order time accurate semi-implicit method is proposed ...
