A spectral Galerkin method for the the coupled Orr–Sommerfeld and induction equations for free-surface MHD

We develop and test spectral Galerkin schemes to solve the coupled Orr–Sommerfeld (OS) and induction equationsfor parallel, incompressible MHD in free-surface and fixed-boundary geometries. The schemes’ discrete bases consistof Legendre internal shape functions, supplemented with nodal shape functions for the weak imposition of thestress and insulating boundary conditions. The o...

Solving Single Phase Fluid Flow Instability Equations Using Chebyshev Tau- QZ Polynomial

In this article the instability of single phase flow in a circular pipe from laminar to turbulence regime has been investigated. To this end, after finding boundary conditions and equation related to instability of flow in cylindrical coordination system, which is called eigenvalue Orr Sommerfeld equation, the solution method for these equation has been investigated. In this article Chebyshev p...

Stability Analysis for Wake Flow Behind a Flat Plate

Neutral stability limits for wake flow behind a flat plate is studied using spectral method. First, Orr-Sommerfeld equation was changed to matrix form, covering the whole domain of solution. Next, each term of matrix was expanded using Chebyshev expansion series, a series very much equivalent to the Fourier cosine series. A group of functions and conditions are applied to start and end points i...

The Ritz-Galerkin method for MHD Couette flow of non-Newtonian fluid

In this paper, the Ritz-Galerkin method in Bernstein polynomial basis is applied for solving the nonlinear problem of the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow of third grade fluid between the two plates. The properties of the Bernstein  polynomials together with the Ritz-Galerkin method are used to reduce the solution of the MHD Couette flow of non-Newtonian fluid in a porous medium to the solution o...
