    Article
    Accés obert
    This paper presents a strategy to accelerate virtually any Poisson solver by taking advantage of s spatial reflection symmetries. More precisely, we have proved the existence of an inexpensive block diagonalisation that ...

  • Two-phase turbulent kinetic energy budget computation in co-current Taylor bubble flow 

    Frederix, E.M.A.; Tajfirooz, S; Hopman, Johannes Arend; Fang, Jun; Merzari, Elia; Komen, E.M.J. (Taylor & Francis Group, 2023-02-13)
    Article
    Accés obert
    Simulation of two-phase flows is relevant for reactor design and safety at normal operation or during accident scenarios. Often, the two-phase flow is in a regime in which slugs are formed or where the flow stratifies. ...

  • A CFD-based surrogate model for predicting flow parameters in a ventilated room using sensor readings 

    Morozova, Nina; Trias Miquel, Francesc Xavier; Capdevila Paramio, Roser; Schillaci, Eugenio; Oliva Llena, Asensio (2022-07-01)
    Article
    Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
    In this work, we develop a computational fluid dynamics (CFD)-based surrogate model, which predicts flow parameters under different geometrical configurations and boundary conditions in a benchmark case of a mechanically ...

  • On the implementation of flux limiters in algebraic frameworks 

    Valle Marchante, Nicolás; Álvarez Farré, Xavier; Gorobets, Andrei; Castro González, Jesús; Oliva Llena, Asensio; Trias Miquel, Francesc Xavier (2022-02-01)
    Article
    Accés obert
    The use of flux limiters is widespread within the scientific computing community to capture shock dis- continuities and are of paramount importance for the temporal integration of high-speed aerodynamics, multiphase flows ...

  • A new general method to compute dispersion errors on Cartesian stretched meshes for both linear and non-linear operators 

    Ruano Pérez, Jesús; Baez Vidal, Aleix; Rigola Serrano, Joaquim; Trias Miquel, Francesc Xavier (2022-02-01)
    Article
    Accés restringit per política de l'editorial
    The present article presents a new analysis for the dispersion error and the methodology to evaluate it numerically. Here we present the spectral properties of several convective schemes, including non-linear ones, on ...
