Jan Pech (Czech Academy of Sciences) Extension of the Incompressible Navier-Stokes Solver is developed for the system coupled with the energy equation. Temperature field is considered as an active quantity, which influences the flow field since the material parameters (dyn. viscosity, density, thermal conductivity) are temperature dependent. A priori, we do not simplify the problem […]
Anthony Rouquier (Coventry University) We present a numerical study of the onset of rotating magnetoconvection in a cylinder under the quasi-static magneto-hydrodynamic approximation using the spectral-element solver Nektar++. The aim of this work is to obtain a better understanding of the convection process in planetary cores, especially in the tangent cylinder region. To this end […]
Alexander Proskurin (Altai state technical university) A magnetohydrodynamic solver, based on the Nektar++ spectral/hp element framework, is presented. The velocity and electric potential quasi-static MHD model is used. The Hunt’s flow in square cross-section duct, and its stability are explored as example. Exponential convergence is achieved and the resulting numerical values were found to have […]

Ankang Gao (Imperial College London) The flow past a sinuously plunging wing at Reynolds number 10,000 is simulated using the incompressible Navier-Stokes solver of Nektar++. The wing has a NACA 0012 cross-section, an effective aspect ratio of 10 and an angle of attack of 15 degrees. The plunging motion has a reduced frequency from 1 […]
Wei He (University of Liverpool) Inspired by the motion of bird and fish, biofluid mechanics has already brought about aerodynamics design development. The modal instability is analysed for the low Reynolds number separated flow with two alternations in morphing NACA 0012 airfoil: a small bump on the upper surface and a flexible trailing edge. At […]
