The influence of the liquid viscosity on the crown's evolution is not yet clear. We review several existing theories of this problem, and carry out a series of numerical simulations. We find that a three-segment model can describe the crown's motion. In the very early stage when the crown is barely visible, the influence of viscosity is small. Later, a shallow water approach used in most existing models is applicable as long as the initial conditions are formulated properly. They depend on viscous dissipation in the intermediate period. Preliminary estimation based on a dissipation function is proposed to characterize the influence of viscosity in this problem.展开更多
文摘研究了耦合Level Set(LS)方法处理介质界面算法,通过对比旋转流场和剪切流场下的界面捕捉情况,给出了各种不同方法在处理介质界面过程中的优缺点,分析了产生这种现象的原因。通过对比分析得到,耦合粒子Level Set(Particle Level Set,PLS)方法以及耦合Level Set和VOF(Coupled Level Set and Volume of Fluid,CLSVOF)方法相比于单纯的LS方法,在流体守恒性质方面有很大的提高,PLS方法可以根据撒播粒子和精确追踪示踪粒子修正LS界面;而CLSVOF方法可以通过重构界面和体积输运,重新初始化LS函数。在实际物理应用中,PLS方法多次重新撒播示踪粒子会降低界面精度,且对每个示踪粒子的追踪需要加大CPU内存,而CLSVOF方法更加高效和合理。
