摘要
A generalized nonlinear Maxwell model which had previously been analyzed for plane Couette geometry is here applied to a lid-driven cavity flow. The full three-dimensional hydrodynamical problem is treated numerically. Depending on the relevant model parameters, both smooth laminar and low Reynolds number turbulent flows are found, strikingly similar to the experimentally observed elastic turbulence phenomena in polymer solutions. Representative results of the calculated flow patterns, as well as measures for the turbulent nature of the flow are presented graphically.
