Abstract |
| In this paper the problem of vortex formation in a cube in the presence of a rotational force and a continuously acting external force is numerically investigated. In the course of numerical experiments, depending on the amplitude of these forces and the rotational frequency, several types of flows were obtained — turbulent, multi-vortex, and vortex regimes. The OpenFOAM application software package is used for numerical modeling. |
Keywords: rotating fluid, direct numerical simulation, OpenFOAM application software package. |
