An implicit viscous turbulent flow solver is developed for two-dimensional geometries on unstructured triangular meshes. The flux terms are discretized based on a cell-centered finite-volume formulation with the Roe's flux-difference splitting. The solution is advanced in time using an implicit backward-Euler time-stepping scheme. At each time step, the linear system of equations is approximately solved with the Gauss-Seidel relaxation scheme. The effect of turbulence effects is approximated with a standard $k-{\varepsilon}$ two-equation model which is solved separately from the mean flow equations using the same backward-Euler time integration scheme. The triangular meshes are generated using an advancing-front/layer technique. Validations are made for flows over the NACA0012 airfoil and the Douglas 3-element airfoil. Good agreements are obtained between the numerical results and the experiment.

In this paper, we present and analyze a cell-centered collocated finite volume scheme for incompressible flows to compute solutions simultaneous to Stokes and Darcy equations by applying a pressure jump stabilization term to avoid locking. We prove that the new stabilized FV formulation satisfies a discrete inf-sup condition and error estimates for both problems. Finally, we present some numerical examples confirming this analysis.

A volume capturing method using unstructured grid system for numerical analysis of multiphase flows is introduced in the present paper. This method uses an interface capturing method (CICSAM) in a volume of fluid(VOF) scheme for phase interface capturing. The novelty of CICSAM lies in the adaptive combination of high resolution discretization scheme which ensures the preservation of the sharpness and shape of the interface while retaining boundedness of the field, and no explicit interface reconstruction which is perceived to be difficult to implement on unstructured grid system. Several typical test cases for multiphase flows are presented, which are simulated by an in-house solution code(PowerCFD). This code employs an unstructured cell-centered method based on a conservative pressure-based finite-volume method with CICSAM. It is found that the present method simulates efficiently and accurately complex free surface flows such as multiphase flows.

Two high resolution compressive schemes, CICSAM(Ubbink, 1997) and HRIC(Muzaferija & Peric, 1999), in interface capturing method are reviewed briefly with respect to the extended forms suitable for unstructured meshes. And then those are applied to three typical test cases of translation test, shearing flow test and collapsing water problem with an obstacle. It is accomplished by implementing the high resolution schemes in the in-house CFD code(PowerCFD) for computing 3-D flow with an unstructured cell-centered method, which is based on the finite-volume technique and fully conservative. The calculated results show that CICSAM is better than HRIC with respect to accuracy and robustness, although either scheme can be used as a good choice for free surface or two-phase flow simulation.

A pressure-based, unstructured finite volume method has been applied to couple the chemical kinetics and fluid dynamics and to capture effectively and accurately the steep gradient flame field. The pressure-velocity coupling is handled by two methodologies including the pressure-correction algorithm and the projection scheme. A stiff, operator-split projection scheme for the detailed nonequilibrium chemistry has been employed to treat the stiff reaction source terms. The conservative form of the governing equations are integrated over a cell-centered control volume with collocated storage for all transport variables. Computations using detailed chemistry and variable transport properties were performed for two laminar reacting flows: a counterflow hydrogen-air diffusion flame and a lifted methane-air triple flame. Numerical results favorably agree with measurements in terms of the detailed flame structure.

Several high resolution schemes such as OSHER, MUSCL, SMART, GAMMA, WACEB and CUBISTA are applied to two typical test cases of a translation test and a collapsing water column problem for the accurate capturing of fluid interfaces. It is accomplished by implementing the high resolution schemes in the in-house CFD code(PowerCFD) for computing 3-D flow with an unstructured cell-centered method, which is based on the finite-volume technique and fully conservative. The calculated results are found to show that SMART scheme gives the best performance with respect to accuracy and robustness.

Ultra-wide bandwidth (UWB), narrow bandwidth (single frequency), and a combination of both technologies have been studied for the ultra-high frequency (UHF) partial discharge (PD) monitoring system as a detection scheme. We have experimentally compared those detection methods using a mock-up of 362 kV class single phase gas-insulated switchgear (GIS) and a stable PD source. A rolling-ball type PD cell that produces PDs of about 10 pC, is placed at one end of the GIS. An internal UHF PD sensor was attached several meters away from the PD source. The PD spectrum was measured up to 3 GHz. A useable bandwidth of more than 1 GHz was used to measure UWB signals from the PD. To simulate the narrow bandwidth scheme a bandwidth of 100 kHz centered at several different frequencies was used.

The Pressure-based Unstructured-grid Navier-Stokes Solver PUNS-2/3D for incompressible steady and unsteady viscous flows has been developed. It is based on nonstaggered cell-centered finite volume method. Second-order upwind scheme with least-square reconstruction is used for convective fluxes. The SIMPLE method is implemented to couple the pressure and velocity fields. And the time derivatives in the momentum equations are discretised using a second-order Euler backward-differencing scheme. The discretised linear equations are solved by the preconditioned Biconjugate Gradient Stabilized method(Bi-CGSTAB). The developed solver is applied to validation problems using hybrid meshes.

A thermal-hydraulic code, named CUPID, has been developed for the analysis of transient two-phase flows in nuclear reactor components. A two-fluid three-field model was used for steam-water two-phase flows. To obtain numerical solutions, the finite volume method was applied over unstructured cell-centered meshes. In steam-water two-phase flows, a phase change, i.e., evaporation or condensation, results in a great change in the flow field because of substantial density difference between liquid and vapor phases. Thus, two-phase flows are very sensitive to the local pressure distribution that determines the phase change. This in turn puts emphasis on the accurate evaluation of local pressure gradient. This paper presents a new reconstruction method to evaluate the pressure gradient at cell centers on unstructured meshes. The results of the new scheme for a simple test function, a gravity-driven cavity, and a wall boiling two-phase flow are compared with those of the previous schemes in the CUPID code.
