Numerical simulation of 3D turbulent flows around bodies subjected to vortex-induced and forced vibration

Numerical simulation of multicellular natural convection in air-filled vertical cavities

“…In the current study the Prandtl number value is fixed, Pr = 0.7, while the Rayleigh number is varied in the range from 4.8×10 3 to 1.3×10 4 . The computations were performed using the in-house 3D steady/unsteady Navier-Stokes code SINF (Supersonic to INcompressible Flows) being under development since 1993 [10][11][12]. The structured version of the code used in the current study operates with the second-order finite-volume spatial discretization using the cell-centered variable arrangement and body-fitted block-structured grids [10].…”

“…Three-layer second-order scheme is implemented for physical time stepping. The code is parallelized based on the MPI standard and the domain decomposition strategy according to the grid block structure [12].…”
