Effect of wall oscillation period on fluid flow in branched channel with a moving indentation
The numerical simulation of two-dimensional fluid flow in T-shaped and Y-shaped channels having a single moving indented wall is performed by the finite element method in the Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian frame. The motion of the indented wall is defined as a hyperbolic function, and it is located a...

| Summary: | The numerical simulation of two-dimensional fluid flow in T-shaped and Y-shaped channels having a single moving indented wall is performed by the finite element method in the Arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian frame. The motion of the indented wall is defined as a hyperbolic function, and it is located at a small segment at the bottom wall in the parent channel. The smallest value of the wall oscillation period causes the waviest core flow in the main channel, resulting in bigger vortices and greater flow separation region in the branches, especially during the outward indentation motion. This flow disturbance pattern is found more severe in T-channel as compared to that of in Y-channel. |
