Welcome to Orr_Sommerfeld documentation!

It is a python_ package developed in order to solve the Orr Sommerfeld equations. It is free for the community and allows to calculate disturbances for 4 flows of interest: Poiseuille, Couette, Boundary Layer and jet. These perturbations can be used to analyze the phenomenon of the laminar-turbulent transition.

Installation

It is possible to install using pip:

pip install Orr_Sommerfeld

Technologies

*Project is created with:

Examples

  • Importing the package in Jupyter Notebook:

    from Orr_Sommerfeld import OS
    
  • Can compute the spectrum of temporal and spatial eigenvalues and their respective perturbations using::

    lam,u,v,w=OS.Orr_Sommerfeld_Temporal(N,R,alp,b,n,Np)
    lam,u,v,w=OS.Orr_Sommerfeld_Espacial(N,R,w,b,n,Np)
