Re: Oscillatory Flow

Please login with a confirmed email address before reporting spam

Hi, I am currently working on fluid cycle analysis, I saw online people using oscillatory fluid input at the inlet boundary to simulate the upstroke and downstroke cycle. For micropump simulation tutorial, U0=U0s(1-s)sin(2pit/1[s])) is used as the velocity input, and full cycle was successfully simulated. For 3D simulation, s is replaced by s1 and s2, but as far as i understand, U0s*(1-s) represents parabollic flow, the simulation i am working on is carried on under creeping flow. Hope specialists can help me with this, thank you. I need to know the correct oscillatory input for creepy flow.
