A 3D Fully Non-Hydrostatic Model for Free-Surface Flows with Complex Immersed Boundaries
A fully non-hydrostatic hydrodynamic model is developed to simulate a three-dimensional, incompressible, and viscous free-surface flow passing downstream rigid rectangular and circular cylinders. A direct numerical simulation (DNS) based on the volume of fluid (VOF) and immersed boundary (IB) method is presented for solving the Navier–Stokes equations. The numerical scheme provides accurate solutions with high efficiency using the novel computational procedure to model severe surface deformations. A staggered finite difference method with a Cartesian mesh coordinate system is used to discretize the governing equations with the complexity of the deformed free-surface flow, for which the numerical schemes include a free-surface tracking technique based on the VOF and a VOS-based IB method to simulate 3D dam-break flows passing the slender objects. Additionally, the case studies demonstrate the accuracy and flexibility of the proposed model to predict the impact forces of the surface flow against the different configurations of structures. The results reveal that the temporal variation of the impact force acted on the rectangular obstacle is dominated by the aspect ratio. The force increases with the increase in the shape parameter. The resistance caused by a thin obstacle is considerably less than the blunt shape.
