Extension of finite particle method simulating thermal-viscoelastic flow and fluid–rigid body interactional process in weakly compressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics scheme

Abstract

In computational non-Newtonian fluid dynamics, heat transfer has obvious effects on motions of viscoelastic fluids, mechanical mechanism of elasticity, and flow regimes. This study suggests an extended numerical scheme of smoothed particle hydrodynamics and finite particle method within density smoothing (SPH_DSFPM), which involves the discretization of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) and finite particle method (FPM) within density smoothing (DS) in the weakly compressible flow scheme. A corrected particle shifting technique is incorporated to eliminate tensile instability and inhomogeneity near solid boundaries. A corrected dynamic solid coupled boundary is introduced to deal with casting molding within high-pressure operations, which has a good compatibility between virtual particle method and repulsive force model. Numerical results show that the present scheme has the nearly lower relative error (0.5%) than conventional SPH (2.6%) in the case of evolutionary thermal-viscoelastic Poiseuille flow and heat effects have active influences on velocity, pressure variations for viscoelastic fluid flow around periodic circular cylinders. Three different printing modes of moving printers significantly generate into differentiated forming regimes through high-pressure extrusion. Adaptive particle distributions possess robust flow evolutions, by which the shocked jets can be tracked well and the sinking velocities of wedge entering into solutions can be numerically probed well considering different cuspidal biting angles. In the case of macroscopic fluid–rigid body interactions, the statistical degree of deviation on probed forces with experiments is relatively 4.35% and that is 12.5% for SPH. The proposed numerical scheme has a good performance on improved accuracy, convergence, and stability for simulating transient thermal-viscoelastic flows.
