An Analysis of Compressible Viscous Flows Around a Body Using Finite Element Method

Article Preview

Abstract:

The objective of this paper is an analysis of a body in a compressible viscous flow using the finite element method. Generally, when the fluid flow is analyzed, an incompressible viscous flow is often applied. However fluids have compressibility in actual phenomena. Therefore, the compressibility should be concerned in Computational Fluid Dynamics [CFD]. In this study, two kind of equation is applied to basic equations. One is compressible Navier-stokes equation, the other is incompressible Navier-stokes equation considering density variation. These analysis results of both equations are compared.
