VISCOELASTIC FLOW PAST A CONFINED CIRCULAR CYLINDER IN A CHANNEL


3D VISCOELASTIC FLOW:


Txx contours around a confined circular cylinder in a channel with D/H=0.5 and W/H=2.5 at We=0.7 and Re=0.0 for an Oldroyd-B fluid.



The sreamtraces around a confined circular cylinder in a channel with D/H=0.5 and W/H=2.5 at We=2.0 and Re=0.0 for an Oldroyd-B fluid (Transient).



Compted 2D streamtraces close to the side plates at z/R=4.99
