Simulation of a nonstationary flow in a channel with a distributed blow from the channel walls and forced pressure oscillations

  • Published:
Journal of Engineering Physics and Thermophysics Aims and scope

A nonstationary flow in a channel with a blow was simulated on the basis of the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes equations and the two-parameter k–ε model of turbulence. The pressure near the left end of the channel changes by the harmonic law. It was established that the k–ε model of turbulence can be used for calculating the nonstationary flows formed in the indicated channel by a blow.
