Abstract

In part I, a model for the jet-induced flow in cylindrical tanks based on flow visualization and measurements has been delineated. In this part, the model is formally formulated and solved. A Coupled Block Line Newton-Gauss-Seidel method is used to linearize and solve the resulting equations. The method was found efficient and robust with possibility of overrelaxation. It also provides for introducing higher order schemes in a simple manner.

Keywords:

angularly averaged cylindrical symmetry, prescribed tangential velocity, Newton-type linearization, coupling of variables, faster convergence, overrelaxation
