Is a UCM fluid flow near a stationary point always singular? - Part II
Oftentimes observed divergence of numerical solutions to benchmark flows of the UCM viscoelastic fluid is a known and widely discussed issue. Some authors consider such singularities 'invincible'. Following the previous research, the article gives more arguments against this position, for which it considers two typical flows with a stagnation point, often a place of the flows' singularity. For the flow spread over a wall, as previously for the counterflows, numerical and asymptotic analytical solutions are presented. Both kinds of flows turn out regular in the stagnation points, in particular, for high Weissenberg numbers. A good accordance is demonstrated between the analytical and numerical results.
