This case describes how the 'moving grid' method (see MOFOR
entry in Encyclopedia, POLIS) is applied to simulation
of a sphere falling through air. The 'moving grid' method is
implemented by In-Form formulae written in the Q1 file.
A sphere falls through air experiences a force in direction
opposite to its motion. Terminal velocity is achieved when
the drag force is equal in magnitude but opposite in direction
to the gravity force propelling the sphere.
In this case, the quadratic drag equation is used to calculate
the drag force as follows.
Fd = - 0.5 * rho * U**2.0 * A * Cd
where Fd is the force of drag
rho is the density of air
U is the speed of the sphere
A is the area of the projection of the sphere on a plane
perpendicular to the direction of motion.
Cd is the drag coefficient
The velocity as a function of time for the sphere can be deriv$
ed
as follows:
U(t)= A1 * (EXP(A2*t)-1)/(EXP(A2*t)+1)
where A1 = (2*M*G/rho*A*Cd)**0.5)
A2 = ((2*rho*A*Cd*G)/M)**0.5
where G is the gravity,9.81
M is the mass of the sphere
The following terminal velcoty is asymptotically approached:
Utm = (2*M*G/rho*A*Cd)**0.5
The accelaration is given by the derivative of the velocity
function with respect to time,
a = 4*A1**2.0*A3*EXP(A2*t)/(EXP(A2*t)+1)**2.0
where A3 is 0.5*rho*A*Cd/M
The fluid used is air; the radius of the sphere is 1.0 and
the drag coefficient, Cd used is 1.0
This file contains a marco of commands which cause the
Viewer when the Macro button is pressed to display the
animation automatically. Note that the probe value of the
last contour indicates the terminal velocity.
