In this study, a newly developed parallel finite-volume solver for 3-D viscous flows on hybrid grids is presented. The boundary layers in wall bounded viscous flows are discretized with hexahedral cells for improved accuracy and efficiency, while the rest of the domain is discretized by tetrahedral and pyramidal cells. The computations are performed in parallel in a computer cluster. The parallel solution algorithm with hybrid grids is based on domain decomposition which is obtained using the graph partitioning software METIS. Several validation cases are presented to show the accuracy and the efficiency of the newly developed solver. © 2009 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

Numerical modelling of wave-structure interaction problems through cfd methods Güler, Hasan Gökhan; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet; Department of Civil Engineering (2020) The major focus of this study is the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modelling of wave-structure interaction problems. In the first part of this study, the performance of Haydarpaşa Breakwater under tsunami attack is assessed both experimentally and numerically. It is concluded that the major failure mechanism of this breakwater is the sliding of the crown-wall, and the stability of the stones located at the harbour side is also significant. Design recommendations are given based on the stability of the ...
Incompressible flow simulations using least squares spectral element method on adaptively refined triangular grids Akdağ, Osman; Sert, Cüneyt; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012) The main purpose of this study is to develop a flow solver that employs triangular grids to solve two-dimensional, viscous, laminar, steady, incompressible flows. The flow solver is based on Least Squares Spectral Element Method (LSSEM). It has p-type adaptive mesh refinement/coarsening capability and supports p-type nonconforming element interfaces. To validate the developed flow solver several benchmark problems are studied and successful results are obtained. The performances of two different triangular ...
Deep Learning Based Speed Up of Fluid Dynamics Solvers Acar, Deniz Alper; Uzol, Oğuz; Department of Aerospace Engineering (2022-9-8) In this thesis, two distinct deep learning-based methods for the speed-up of fluid dynamics solvers are proposed. The first method called Parametric Encoded Physics informed neural network (PEPINN), is utilized to solve transient fluid dynamics problems. PEPINN is an alternative to the Physics informed neural networks (PINN) and is based on the parametric encoding of the problem domain. In PEPINN the automatic differentiation for calculation of the problem residual is replaced with finite difference kernel...
Mathematical Modeling of Turbulent Flows of Newtonian Fluids in a Concentric Annulus with Pipe Rotation SORGUN, MEHMET; Aydın, İsmail; ÖZBAYOĞLU, Evren; SCHUBERT, J J (2012-03-01) In this study, a mathematical model is proposed to predict flow characteristics of Newtonian fluids inside a concentric horizontal annulus. A numerical solution, including pipe rotation, is developed for calculating frictional head losses in concentric annuli for turbulent flow. Navier-Stokes equations are numerically solved using the finite differences technique to obtain the velocity field. Experiments with water are performed in a concentric annulus with and without pipe rotation. Average fluid velocitie...
Nonlinear 3D Modeling and Vibration Analysis of Horizontal Drum Type Washing Machines Baykal, Cem; Ciğeroğlu, Ender; Yazıcıoğlu, Yiğit (2020-01-01) In this study, a nonlinear 3-D mathematical model for horizontal drum type washing machines is developed considering rotating unbalance type excitation. Nonlinear differential equations of motion are converted into a set of nonlinear algebraic equations by using Harmonic Balance Method (HBM). The resulting nonlinear algebraic equations are solved by using Newton’s method with arc-length continuation. Several case studies are performed in order to observe the effects of orientation angles of springs and damp...
