Abstract In this talk, we will present a SPH formulation for coupled Thermal-Hydraulic-Mechanical processes. The Biot’s theory is used to model the fluid-solid interaction of saturated porous media, the Fourier’s law and the Newton’s law of cooling are used to describe the thermal conduction in a single medium and the heat exchange between the fluid and the solid, respectively. The physical model is expressed in the initial reference, and the total Lagrangian SPH is used to build the discrete formulation. We will discuss the numerical instability induced by twice repeated derivatives of discontinuous physical quantities, and More >

Abstract The conjugate natural convection heat transfer in a partially heated porous enclosure had been studied numerically. The governing dimensionless equations are solved using finite element method. Classical Darcy model have been used and the considering dimensionless parameters are modified Rayleigh number (10 ≤ Ra ≤ 10³), finite wall thickness (0.02 ≤ D ≤ 0.5), thermal conductivity ratio (0.1 ≤ K_r ≤ 10), and the aspect ratio (0.5 ≤ A≤ 10). The results are presented in terms of streamlines, isotherms and local and average Nusselt number. The results indicate that heat transfer can be enhanced by increasing More >

Abstract Some considerations on the numerical analysis of brittle rocks are presented in this paper. The rock is taken as a poro-elastic domain, in full-saturated condition, based on the Biot's Theory. The solid matrix of this porous medium is considered to be susceptible to isotropic damage occurrence. An implicit boundary element method (BEM) formulation, based on time-independent fundamental solutions, is developed and implemented to couple the fluid flow and two-dimensional elastostatics problems. The integration over boundary elements is evaluated by using a numerical Gauss procedure. A semi-analytical scheme for the case of triangular domain cells is More >
