Book A Representation for the Turbulent Mass Flux Contribution to Reynolds Stress and Two Equation Closures for Compressible Turbulence

Download or read book A Representation for the Turbulent Mass Flux Contribution to Reynolds Stress and Two Equation Closures for Compressible Turbulence written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA and published by . This book was released on 2018-10-23 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The turbulent mass flux, or equivalently the fluctuating Favre velocity mean, appears in the first and second moment equations of compressible kappa-epsilon and Reynolds stress closures. Mathematically it is the difference between the unweighted and density-weighted averages of the velocity field and is therefore a measure of the effects of compressibility through variations in density. It appears to be fundamental to an inhomogeneous compressible turbulence, in which it characterizes the effects of the mean density gradients, in the same way the anisotropy tensor characterizes the effects of the mean velocity gradients. An evolution equation for the turbulent mass flux is derived. A truncation of this equation produces an algebraic expression for the mass flux. The mass flux is found to be proportional to the mean density gradients with a tensor eddy-viscosity that depends on both the mean deformation and the Reynolds stresses. The model is tested in a wall bounded DNS at Mach 4.5 with notable results. Ristorcelli, J. R. Unspecified Center NAS1-19480; RTOP 505-90-52-01...

Book Simulation and Modeling of Turbulent Flows

Download or read book Simulation and Modeling of Turbulent Flows written by T. B. Gatski and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides students and researchers in fluid engineering with an up-to-date overview of turbulent flow research in the areas of simulation and modeling. A key element of the book is the systematic, rational development of turbulence closure models and related aspects of modern turbulent flow theory and prediction. Starting with a review of the spectral dynamics of homogenous and inhomogeneous turbulent flows, succeeding chapters deal with numerical simulation techniques, renormalization group methods and turbulent closure modeling. Each chapter is authored by recognized leaders in their respective fields, and each provides a thorough and cohesive treatment of the subject.

Book Progress in Favre Reynolds Stress Closures for Compressible Flows

Download or read book Progress in Favre Reynolds Stress Closures for Compressible Flows written by Virgil Adumitroaie and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A closure for the compressible portion of the pressure strain covariance is developed. It is shown that, within the context of a pressure strain closure assumption linear in the Reynolds stresses, an expression for the pressure dilatation can be used to construct a representation for the pressure strain. Additional closures for the unclosed terms in the Favre Reynolds stress equations involving the mean acceleration are also constructed. The closures accommodate compressibility corrections depending on the magnitude of the turbulent Mach number, the mean density gradient, the mean pressure gradient, the mean dilatation, and, of course, the mean velocity gradients. The effects of the compressibility corrections are consistent with current DNS results. Using the compressible pressure strain and mean acceleration closures in the Favre Reynolds stress equations an algebraic closure for the Favre Reynolds stresses is constructed. Noteworthy is the fact that, in the absence of mean velocity gradients, the mean density gradient produces Favre Reynolds stresses in accelerating mean flows. Computations of the mixing layer using the compressible closures developed are described. Favre Reynolds stress closure and two equation algebraic models are compared to laboratory data. The mixing layer configuration computations are compared to laboratory data; since the laboratory data for the turbulence stresses is inconsistent, this comparison is inconclusive. Comparisons for the spread rate reduction indicate a sizable decrease in the mixing layer growth rate.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compressibility, Turbulence and High Speed Flow introduces the reader to the field of compressible turbulence and compressible turbulent flows across a broad speed range, through a unique complimentary treatment of both the theoretical foundations and the measurement and analysis tools currently used. The book provides the reader with the necessary background and current trends in the theoretical and experimental aspects of compressible turbulent flows and compressible turbulence. Detailed derivations of the pertinent equations describing the motion of such turbulent flows is provided and an extensive discussion of the various approaches used in predicting both free shear and wall bounded flows is presented. Experimental measurement techniques common to the compressible flow regime are introduced with particular emphasis on the unique challenges presented by high speed flows. Both experimental and numerical simulation work is supplied throughout to provide the reader with an overall perspective of current trends. - An introduction to current techniques in compressible turbulent flow analysis - An approach that enables engineers to identify and solve complex compressible flow challenges - Prediction methodologies, including the Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) method, scale filtered methods and direct numerical simulation (DNS) - Current strategies focusing on compressible flow control

Book Statistical Hydrodynamic Models for Developed Mixing Instability Flows

Download or read book Statistical Hydrodynamic Models for Developed Mixing Instability Flows written by Antoine Llor and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-23 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part textbook, part exploratory work, this book aims to raise the awareness of students, physicists, and engineers in turbulence on the modeling of gravitationally induced turbulent mixing flows as produced, for instance, by Rayleigh-Taylor instabilities. The discussion is centered on the differences between single-fluid and two-fluid approaches, and it is illustrated with a 0D analysis of two specific elementary models in common use. Important deviations are shown to appear on many features, among others the prominence of directed energy, the simultaneous restitution of test cases, the responses to variable acceleration and shocks, and the behavior of various length scales.
