In this thesis, the direct and inverse problems of the MHD flow in rectangular ducts are solved in terms of the velocity of the fluid and the induced magnetic field by using the Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method (DRBEM). The two-dimensional, steady flow of a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting fluid is considered under the effect of an externally applied mangetic field. The duct wall conditions for the MHD flow ranges from the no-slip to slip and insulated to perfectly conducting. In the DRBEM application, the fundamental solution of the Laplace equation is made use of transform the integral equations into boundary integral equations eliminating domain integral resulting from the inhomogeneity. The terms other than Laplacian are treated as inhomogeneity and they are approximated by using the radial basis functions which are related with the particular solution of the PDE through the Laplace operator. The boundary inverse and parameter identification problems are considered as the two types of inverse problems for the MHD duct flow. In the boundary type inverse formulation, the aim is to calculate the slip length on the slipping boundary and the conductivity constant on the variably conducting boundary. In the parameter identification, the parameter Hartmann number in the MHD flow equations is going to be redetermined for a preassigned velocity and induced magnetic field in the problem region. Since the inverse problems are ill-posed, the DRBEM is accompanied with three regularization techniques, namely, Tikhonov regularization, the direct-inverse iterations, and the well-posed iterations for obtaining the solution of the Cauchy MHD duct flow. The originality of this thesis lies in the construction and solution of the MHD duct flow problems as inverse problems.

DRBEM solutions of Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations in cavities under point source magnetic field Senel, P.; Tezer, Münevver (2016-03-01) This paper describes an iterative dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) for the solutions of Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations in cavities under the effect of an external point source magnetic field placed very close to the bottom. The fluid is viscous, incompressible and electrically non-conducting but magnetizable, and the flow is steady, laminar and fully developed. Both the Stokes and Navier-Stokes equations are solved in terms of velocity and pressure of the fluid by using DRBEM. Pressure b...
DRBEM solution of exterior nonlinear wave problem using FDM and LSM time integrations Meral, Guelnihal; Tezer, Münevver (Elsevier BV, 2010-06-01) The nonlinear wave equation is solved numerically in an exterior region For the discretization of the space derivatives dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) is applied using the fundamental solution of Laplace equation. The time derivative and the nonlinearity are treated as the nonhomogenity. The boundary integrals coming from the far boundary are eliminated using rational and exponential interpolation functions which have decay properties far away from the region of Interest. The resulting sys...
DRBEM applications in fluid dynamics problems and DQM solutions of hyperbolic equations Pekmen, Bengisen; Tezer Sezgin, Münevver; Department of Scientific Computing (2014) In this thesis, problems of fluid dynamics defined by the two-dimensional convection-diffusion type partial differential equations (PDEs) are solved using the dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM). The terms other than the Laplacian are treated as inhomogeneous terms in the DRBEM application. Once the both sides are multiplied by the fundamental solution of Laplace equation, and then integrated over the domain, all the domain integrals are transformed to boundary integrals using the Green's ident...
DRBEM Solution of Incompressible MHD Flow with Magnetic Potential Pekmen, B.; Tezer, Münevver (2013-12-01) The dual reciprocity boundary element method (DRBEM) formulation is presented for solving incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) flow equations. The combination of Navier-Stokes equations of fluid dynamics and Maxwell's equations of electromagnetics through Ohm's law is considered in terms of stream function, vorticity and magnetic potential in 2D. The velocity field and the induced magnetic field can be determined through the relations with stream function and magnetic potential, respectively. The numeri...
DRBEM simulation on mixed convection with hydromagnetic effect Bozkaya, Canan (2014-09-25) The steady and laminar mixed convection flow of a viscous, incompressible, and electrically conducting fluid under the effect of an inclined magnetic field is numerically investigated. Specifically, the two-dimensional flow in a lid-driven cavity with a linearly heated wall is considered. The dual reciprocity boundary element method is used for solving the coupled nonlinear differential equations in terms of stream function, vorticity, and temperature. The study focuses on the effects of the physical parame...
