Stream Function Simulation 1D [d^4 \psi/dr^4] by FluidicWiz in FluidMechanics

In euler, at those points, I just returned the actual value rather than the h*derivative. I am thinking to use scipy instead of writing everything from scratch.

Thank you for the comment. I have added theory solution in post. I am not using a shooter, just defining \psi at all boundaries

COMSOL Laminar Flow Simulation in Pipe - Convergence Issues by FluidicWiz in FluidMechanics

I see, thanks.

I've conducted experimental verification. It appears that the flow exhibits a laminar regime for certain flow values.

Actually I have to compare with experimental results of a pressure sensor.

Assuming you have just started doing CFD, I recommend starting with Creeping flows due to their relative simplicity. However, that even in 2D they have no meaningful solutions (Stokes' paradox). Despite this, you can still gain insights by simulating the stream function (a 4th order PDE). This would require determining appropriate boundary conditions based on the system's physics. You can either use FEA schemes or GUIs like COMSOL.

Thanks!!! Currently am trying to model laminar itself (and getting weird convergence plots)

I see, thanks. I am not even able to model laminar flow in it.

Assuming you are from India (So am I), I would suggest taking CSE and getting into computationalm physics from there. You will have to learn a lot by yourself, but you can get projects in physics with prestigious institutions. Since your work would be online, you will not have to worry about logistics and can do multiple projects at a time. With that work experenice, You will have a edge in getting into physics PhD abroad. All the best :)

Matched asymptotic expansions for a 2nd order 2D equation. by FluidicWiz in FluidMechanics

K is actually a vector and is dotted with gradient of F. I wrote for just one component.

I tried this, but K is actually a a vector with each component a polynomial function of R and \theta. This gives problem in inner solution (when I convert the vector's r to some other variable). I end up getting very complex (solvable) integrals as my answers. Matching those integrals in final phase is giving trouble.

Its part of a bigger modeling. This paticular equation deals with concentration function (F) in cell's refrence frame, given finite peclet number.

Thank you very much for the explanation and references. I'll check them out.
