Frostwing Preliminary CFD Results SAE G-12 AWG Montreal 2017 Frostwing Preliminary CFD Results Pekka Koivisto Aalto University Arteform Ltd

CFD Studies Objective: study the possibility to estimate the fluid loss in time computationally without experiments Initially a flat plate with a fluid layer in an accelerating airstream If the preliminary studies were successful there will be a theoretical method available to study the effects of fluid properties (density, viscosity and surface tension) on the fluid loss rate and FPET B-L displacement thickness 19.11.2018

CFD Studies Due to limited time/resources a 2D flat plate model was chosen Code applied: OpenFoam 2 solvers available for 2-phase flow in OpenFoam code: multiphaseEulerFoam multiphaseInterFoam supports Non-Newtonian viscosity models, better stability, allows either LES or RANS turbulence models  this solver was selected 2D grid for 0.6m long flat plate: 165 000 cells - recent trials with 1.8m flat plate with 480 000 cells Initial time step for 2D simulations 5*10-6 s  5 second simulation for a 0.6m flat plate takes 2 weeks with 2 CPUs. 19.11.2018

CFD Studies Type I fluid (100 %) in airstream of 17 m/s – note airstream eddies To catch the effects of these eddies LES – turbulence model was chosen though it is considered essentially a 3D turbulence model Selection was motivated by a fairly good 2 dimensionality of the waves according to W/T tests

Flat Plate W/T Tests to Evaluate CFD Calculations 19.11.2018

Flat Plate Wind Tunnel Model Pitot – Static Rake Transparent flat plate - PMMA (acrylic) Distributed LED-light sources

Wave phenomena – Type I 12.2 m/s 15.6 m/s. W/T Speed: Flow Direction W/T Speed: 12.2 m/s 15.6 m/s. Periodic slow waves (K-H or T-S instability) Mass transfer near zero Transient phase from periodic to solitary waves Solitary fast waves. Mass transfer proportional to W/T speed

Wave phenomena – Type IV W/T speed 13.3 m/s 16.8 m/s No periodic waves – first appearing waves are solitary waves Mass transfer proportional to W/T speed

CFD with Type I fluids (0.6m and 1.8m models) Grid sizes: 0.6m model – 160 000 cells, 1.8 m model – 480 000 cells Calculation times: Model Simulated time [s] Comp. Time [h] h/s/CPU CPU cores 0.6 m 10.0 669 (28d) 33 2 1.8 m 15.0 4029 (5.6m) 67 4

CFD Results Compared to Measurements 0.6 m Flat plate Total fluid volume variation and W/T kinetic pressure variation in time 19.11.2018

Discrepancies between CFD and measured fluid flow CFD model does not capture the periodic wave phase The fluid removal rate in the beginning is slower than measured Possible reasons: The initial condition in the simulations is very static, while there are initial disturbances in the wind tunnel due to the idling of the wind tunnel fan. The resolution of the computational grid is insufficient to capture small waves. The initial thickness of the fluid was exactly 1 mm in the simulations. The initial thickness of the fluid in the wind tunnel tests is more approximately defined. The initial thickness has an effect on wave height and wave speed and therefore on the removal rate in the beginning The waves in the simulations are formed at the leading edge of the fluid layer and they must travel the entire plate, while waves are formed all over the flat plate in the wind tunnel test. After the simulations have reached a point where there are waves along the entire length of the flat plate, the removal rate increases.

CFD Studies – T IV Fluids Preliminary studies for Non-Newtonian fluids (TIV) have appeared challenging – at least for OpenFoam code. Needs more basic research The problem seems not to be in the power law model but in the too large differences between fluid/air viscosities for the solvers utilized 19.11.2018
