A numerical method which combines equal-order velocity-pressure formulation originated from SIMPLE algorithm and streamline upwinding method has been developed. To verify the proposed numerical method, we considered the lid-driven cavity flow and backward facing step flow. The trend of convergence history is stable up to the error criterion beyond which the maximum value of error is oscillatory due4 to the round-off error. In the present study, all results were obtained with the single precision calculation up to the given error criterion and it was found to be sufficient for our purpose. The present results were then compared with existing experimental results using laser doppler velocimetry and numerical results using finite difference method and mixed interpolation finite element method. It has been shown that the present method gives accurate results with less memories and execution time than the coventional finite element method.

A finite element discretization of the advection and redistancing equations of level set method has been studied. It has been shown that Galerkin spatial discretization combined with Crank-Nicolson temporal discretization of the advection equation of level set yields a good result and that consistent streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin(CSUPG) discretization of the redistancing equation gives satisfactory solutions for two test problems while the solutions of streamline upwind Petrov-Galerkin(SUPG) discretization are dissipated by the numerical diffusion added for the stability of a hyperbolic system. Furthermore, it has been found that the solutions obtained by CSUPG method are comparable to those by second order ENO method.

유한요소법으로 공학적 문제를 해결할 때에는 적절한 모델링을 통하여 가장 빠르고 정확한 해를 얻도록 해야 한다. 유체 흐름의 기본 변수인 속도는 그 공간 도함수가 요소간에 불연속을 이루게 된다. 속도의 공간 도함수는 기본적으로 유체에서의 응력, 압력, 및 와도 등과 밀접한 관련이 있다. 또한 이러한 요소간의 속도의 공간 도함수에서 발생하는 불연속의 크기는 요소망이 세분화되어 감에 따라 감소하면서 정확한 해에 수렴하게 된다. 즉 속도의 공간 도함수를 대상으로 오차에 정도를 판단하는 것이 기존의 유한요소 모델의 타당성을 판단하는 기준으로 적합함을 알 수 있다.

In the present paper, flow and heat transfer characteristics of confined impinging slot jets have been numerically investigated using a SIMPLE-based segregated SUPG finite element method. For laminar jets, it is shown that the skin friction coefficient obtained from the present SUPG formulation approaches the grid-independent Galerkin solution inducing negligible false diffusion in the flow field when a moderate number of grid points are used. For turbulent jets, the k-$\omega$turbulence model is adopted. The streamwise mean velocity and the heat transfer coefficient respectively agree very well with existing experimental data within limited ranges of parameters.

This paper deals with finite element analysis for incompressible viscous flow problem By formulating the governing equation based on the streamline upwind concept , the wiggle phenomenon of fluid flow is minimized in spite of a few number of finite element used. The penalty function method which can reduce the number of independent variables is adopted for the purpose of computational efficiency and the selected reduced integral is carried out for the convection and pressure terms to reserve the stability of solution. In time-history analysis of fluid flow, the accuracy and reliability of an obtained solution are established by using the predictor-corrector method. Finally, correlation studies between analytical and experimental results are conducted wi th the object ive to establish the validity of the proposed numerical approach.

A finite element code based on P2P1 tetra element has been developed for the large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent flows around a complex geometry. Fractional 4-step algorithm is employed to obtain time accurate solution since it is less expensive than the integrated formulation, in which the velocity and pressure fields are solved at the same time. Crank-Nicolson method is used for second order temporal discretization and Galerkin method is adopted for spatial discretization. For very high Reynolds number flows, which would require a formidable number of nodes to resolve the flow field, SUPG (Streamline Upwind Petrov-Galerkin) method is applied to the quadratic interpolation function for velocity variables, Noting that the calculation of intrinsic time scale is very complicated when using SUPG for quadratic tetra element of velocity variables, the present study uses a unique intrinsic time scale proposed by Codina et al. since it makes the present three-dimensional unstructured code much simpler in terms of implementing SUPG. In order to see the effect of numerical diffusion caused by using an upwind scheme (SUPG), those obtained from P2P1 Galerkin method and P2P1 Petrov-Galerkin approach are compared for the flow around a sphere at some Reynolds number. Smagorinsky model is adopted as subgrid scale models in the context of P2P1 finite element method. As a benchmark problem for code validation, turbulent flows around a sphere and a MIRA model have been studied at various Reynolds numbers.
