Defect Correction Method for Viscoelastic Fluid Flows at High Weissenberg Number
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study a defect correction method for the approximation of viscoelastic fluid flow. In the defect step, the constitutive equation is computed with an artificially reduced Weissenberg parameter for stability, and the resulting residual is corrected in the correction step. We prove the convergence of the defect correction method and derive an error estimate for the Oseen-viscoelastic model problem. The derived theoretical results are supported by numerical tests for both the Oseen-viscoelastic problem and the Johnson-Segalman model problem. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A two-parameter defect-correction method for computation of steady-state viscoelastic fluid flow
The numerical simulation of viscoelastic fluid flow becomes more difficult as a physical parameter, the Weissenberg number, increases. Specifically, at a Weissenberg number larger than a critical value, the iterative nonlinear solver fails to converge. In this paper a two-parameter defect-correction method for viscoelastic fluid flow is presented and analyzed. In the defect step the Weissenberg...

A defect correction method for solving the time-dependent viscoelastic fluid flow, aiming at high Weissenberg numbers, is presented. In the defect step, the constitutive equation is computed with the artificially reduced Weissenberg parameter for stability, and the residual is considered in the correction step. We show the convergence of the method and derive an error estimate. Numerical experi...

The numerical simulation of viscoelastic fluid flow becomes more difficult as a physical parameter, the Weissenberg number, increases. Specifically, at a Weissenberg number larger than a critical value, the iterative nonlinear solver fails to converge, a phenomenon known as the High Weissenberg Number Problem. In this work we describe the application and implementation of continuation methods t...
متن کاملTime-dependent simulation of viscoelastic flows at high Weissenberg number using the log-conformation representation
We present a second-order finite-difference scheme for viscoelastic flows based on a recent reformulation of the constitutive laws as equations for the matrix logarithm of the conformation tensor. We present a simple analysis that clarifies how the passage to logarithmic variables remedies the high-Weissenberg numerical instability. As a stringent test, we simulate an Oldroyd-B fluid in a lid-d...

In this study prediction of the steady-state flow of branched polymer melts in pipe geometry with finite volume method is presented. Our analysis in this study revealed that;for normal-stress tqq , the XPP model can predict this tensor unlike the other viscoelastic models such as PTT or Gieskus which can not predict tqq...
