/** # Drifting cylinder in a planar Poiseuille flow This test case is based on the numerical work of [Feng et al., 1994](#feng1994). We investigate the settling of a cylinder of diameter $d$ in a long channel of aspect ration $W/d = 4$ under a planar Poiseuille flow. We study the effect of the density ration $r$ of the particle on the settling dynamics of the particle. Due to the added-mass effect for density ratios close to 1, we choose to simulate the cases where $r=[1.2,1.5]$. We solve here the 2D Navier-Stokes equations and describe the cylinder using an [embedded boundary](/src/embed.h). */ #include "grid/quadtree.h" #include "../myembed.h" #include "../mycentered.h" #include "../myembed-particle-color.h" #include "../myperfs.h" #include "view.h" /** ## Reference solution */ #define d (1.) #define h (4.*(d)) // Width of the channel #define Re (120.) // Bulk Reynolds number Uh/nu #define Fr (43.56) // Froud number gh/U^2 #if DENSITY == 1 // r = 1.5, lagging #define r (1.5) // Ratio of solid to fluid density #else // r = 1.2, lagging #define r (1.2) // Ratio of solid to fluid density #endif // DENSITY #define uref (1.) // Characteristic speed #define tref ((d)/(uref)) // Characteristic time #define grav ((Fr)*sq (uref)/(h)) // Gravity acceleration Fr*U^2/h /** We also define the shape of the domain. */ #define cylinder(x,y) (sq ((x)) + sq ((y)) - sq ((d)/2.)) #define wall(y,w) ((y) - (w)) // + over, - under void p_shape (scalar c, face vector f, coord p) { vertex scalar phi[]; foreach_vertex() { phi[] = HUGE; for (double xp = -(L0); xp <= (L0); xp += (L0)) for (double yp = -(L0); yp <= (L0); yp += (L0)) phi[] = intersection (phi[], intersection ((cylinder ((x + xp - p.x), (y + yp - p.y))), intersection ( -(wall (y, (h)/2.)), (wall (y, -(h)/2.))))); } boundary ({phi}); fractions (phi, c, f); fractions_cleanup (c, f, smin = 1.e-14, cmin = 1.e-14); } /** We finally define the particle parameters. */ const double p_r = (r); // Ratio of solid and fluid density const double p_v = (p_volume_cylinder ((d))); // Particle volume const coord p_i = {(p_moment_inertia_cylinder ((d), (r))), (p_moment_inertia_cylinder ((d), (r)))}; // Particle moment of interia const coord p_g = {-(grav), 0.}; // Gravity /** ## Setup We need a field for viscosity so that the embedded boundary metric can be taken into account. */ face vector muv[]; /** Since both the walls of the channel and the cylinder are described using the same embedded volume fraction *cs*, we use the color field *p_col* to color the cylinder only. */ void p_shape_col (scalar c, coord p) { vertex scalar phi[]; foreach_vertex() { phi[] = HUGE; for (double xp = -(L0); xp <= (L0); xp += (L0)) for (double yp = -(L0); yp <= (L0); yp += (L0)) phi[] = intersection (phi[], (cylinder ((x + xp - p.x), (y + yp - p.y)))); } boundary ({phi}); fractions (phi, c); } /** Finally, we define the mesh adaptation parameters and vary the maximum level of refinement. */ #define lmin (8) // Min mesh refinement level (l=8 is 2pt/d) #define lmax (13) // Max mesh refinement level (l=13 is 64pt/d) #define cmax (5.e-3*(uref)) // Absolute refinement criteria for the velocity field int main () { /** The domain is $128\times 128$. */ L0 = 128.; size (L0); origin (-L0/2., -L0/2.); /** We set the maximum timestep. */ DT = 1.e-2*(tref); /** We set the tolerance of the Poisson solver. */ TOLERANCE = 1.e-4; TOLERANCE_MU = 1.e-4*(uref); /** We initialize the grid. */ N = 1 << (lmin); init_grid (N); run(); } /** ## Boundary conditions We use inlet boundary conditions with a parabolic velocity profile. */ #define profile(y) ((y) <= (h)/2. && (y) >= -(h)/2. ?

According to [Feng et al., 1994](#feng1994), heavy particles ($r>1$) lag in velocity and have a tendency to settle towards the center of the channel due to an inertial lift and the wall effects. An overshoot can be observed for large $r$. The stabilized position is close to the channel center but not exactly $0$ due to the curvature of the undisturbed velocity profile. On the contrary, lighter particles lead in velocity and settle closer to the wall. For higher slip velocities, the effect of the Poiseuille velocity profile is reduced and the particle behaves as if it is sedimenting towards the well, until the lubrification become strong enough to stop the sedimentation. ~~~gnuplot Time evolution of the particle's trajectory reset set terminal svg font ",16" set key bottom left spacing 1.1 set xlabel 'x/d' set ylabel 'y/d' set xrange [-64:64] set yrange [-1.25:0.25] set grid y plot 'log' u 14:15 w l lc rgb "blue" t "Basilisk, l=13" ~~~ ~~~gnuplot Time evolution of the slip velocity set key top right set ylabel "u_{slip}/u_{m}" set yrange [-3:3] plot 'log' u 14:22 w l lc rgb "blue" t "Basilisk, l=13" ~~~ ~~~gnuplot Time evolution of the slip Reynolds number set key bottom left set ylabel "Re_{slip}" set yrange [0:100] plot 'log' u 14:23 w l lc rgb "blue" t "Basilisk, l=13" ~~~ ## References ~~~bib @article{feng1994, title={Direct Simulation of Initial Value Problems for the Motion of Solid Bodies in a Newtonian Fluid.
