Abstract

Prediction of internal flows by numerical solution of the conservation equations for mass, momentum, and energy is discussed for several geometrical simple shapes. The problems addressed are the following: Flows in spherical and cylindrical gaps with Taylor-vortices; flows in rotating cylinders with change of angular velocity; flows in bifurcated pipes, and finally, vortical flows in cylinders of piston engines. Interpretation of the characteristic flow phenomena in comparison with experimental data is emphasized in favour of the description of integration methods.
