Numerical analysis of the transpose diffusive term for viscoplastic-type non-Newtonian fluid flows using a collocated variable arrangement
نویسندگان
چکیده
The aim of this work is to delve into the numerical analysis of viscoplastic-type non-Newtonian fluid flows. Specifically, improvements in the spatial discretization schemes and the temporal integration methods have been proposed to overcome the numerical problems introduced by the transpose diffusive term and associated with the velocity field discontinuity, the artificial viscous diffusion and the transpose viscous coupling. The resulting knowledge may be useful, among many other things, to improve the corresponding numerical simulations and gain insight into the underlying physics of this class of non-Newtonian fluid flows.

In this paper we study a numerical method for the simulation of free surface flows of viscoplastic (Herschel-Bulkley) fluids. The approach is based on the level set method for capturing the free surface evolution and on locally refined and dynamically adapted octree cartesian staggered grids for the discretization of fluid and level set equations. A regularized model is applied to handle the no...
