Conjugate heat transfer in the unbounded flow of a viscoelastic fluid past a sphere
F. Pimenta, M. A. Alves
This work addresses the conjugate heat transfer of a simplified PTT fluid flowing past an unbounded sphere in the Stokes regime (). The problem is numerically solved wit…

A coupled finite-volume solver for numerical simulation of electrically-driven flows
Francisco Pimenta, Manuel A. Alves
The accuracy and stability of implicit CFD codes are frequently impaired by the decoupling between variables, which can ultimately lead to numerical divergence. Coupled solvers, wh…

Numerical simulation of electrically-driven flows using OpenFOAM
Francisco Pimenta, Manuel A. Alves
In this work, we study the implementation of electrically-driven flow (EDF) models in the finite-volume framework of . The Poisson-Nernst-Planck model is…
