This book was released on 2018-08-20 with total page 50 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The two-layer near wall approach in combination with the k-epsilon model was applied to rotating flows. Validation studies show that the conventional length scales have to be modified to account for rotating effects. Guided by the Lam and Bremhorst's low Reynolds number model with the rotation-corrected k-epsilon model, a new set of length scales formulation is proposed. The developments and validations of the current model are reported. A fully elliptic numerical method developed to solve the two-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations is employed for the computational study. Chen, C. P. and Guo, K. L.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: obtained are still severely limited to low Reynolds numbers (about only one decade better than direct numerical simulations), and the interpretation of such calculations for complex, curved geometries is still unclear. It is evident that a lot of work (and a very significant increase in available computing power) is required before such methods can be adopted in daily's engineering practice. I hope to l"Cport on all these topics in a near future. The book is divided into six chapters, each· chapter in subchapters, sections and subsections. The first part is introduced by Chapter 1 which summarizes the equations of fluid mechanies, it is developed in C~apters 2 to 4 devoted to the construction of turbulence models. What has been called "engineering methods" is considered in Chapter 2 where the Reynolds averaged equations al"C established and the closure problem studied (§1-3). A first detailed study of homogeneous turbulent flows follows (§4). It includes a review of available experimental data and their modeling. The eddy viscosity concept is analyzed in §5 with the l"Csulting ~alar-transport equation models such as the famous K-e model. Reynolds stl"Css models (Chapter 4) require a preliminary consideration of two-point turbulence concepts which are developed in Chapter 3 devoted to homogeneous turbulence. We review the two-point moments of velocity fields and their spectral transforms (§ 1), their general dynamics (§2) with the particular case of homogeneous, isotropie turbulence (§3) whel"C the so-called Kolmogorov's assumptions are discussed at length.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Turbulence modeling both addresses a fundamental problem in physics, 'the last great unsolved problem of classical physics,' and has far-reaching importance in the solution of difficult practical problems from aeronautical engineering to dynamic meteorology. However, the growth of supercom puter facilities has recently caused an apparent shift in the focus of tur bulence research from modeling to direct numerical simulation (DNS) and large eddy simulation (LES). This shift in emphasis comes at a time when claims are being made in the world around us that scientific analysis itself will shortly be transformed or replaced by a more powerful 'paradigm' based on massive computations and sophisticated visualization. Although this viewpoint has not lacked ar ticulate and influential advocates, these claims can at best only be judged premature. After all, as one computational researcher lamented, 'the com puter only does what I tell it to do, and not what I want it to do. ' In turbulence research, the initial speculation that computational meth ods would replace not only model-based computations but even experimen tal measurements, have not come close to fulfillment. It is becoming clear that computational methods and model development are equal partners in turbulence research: DNS and LES remain valuable tools for suggesting and validating models, while turbulence models continue to be the preferred tool for practical computations. We believed that a symposium which would reaffirm the practical and scientific importance of turbulence modeling was both necessary and timely.

This book was released on 2018 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) is increasingly playing a significant role in the analysis and design of aircrafts, turbomachines, automobiles, and in many other industrial applications. In majority of the applications, the fluid flow is generally turbulent. The accurate prediction of turbulent flows to date remains a challenging problem in CFD. In almost all industrial applications, Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations in conjunction with a turbulence model are employed for simulation and prediction of turbulent flows. Currently the one-equation (namely the Spalart-Allmaras (SA) and Wray-Agarwal (WA) and two-equation (namely the k-[epsilon] and Shear Stress Transport k-[omega]) turbulence models remain the most widely used models in industry. However, improvements and new developments are needed to improve the accuracy of the turbulence models for wall bounded flows with separation in the presence of adverse pressure gradients, and for flows with rotation and curvature (RC) such as those encountered in turbomachinery, centrifugal pumps and the rotating machinery in other industrial devices. The goal of this research is to enable the eddy-viscosity type turbulence models to accurately account for the rotation and curvature effects. To date, there have been two approaches for inclusion of RC effects in turbulence models, which can be categorized as the "Modified Coefficients Approach" which parameterizes the model coefficients such that the growth rate of turbulent kinetic energy is either suppressed or enhanced depending upon the effect of system rotation and streamline curvature on the pressure gradient in the flow and the "Bifurcation Approach" which parameterizes the eddy-viscosity coefficient such that the equilibrium solution bifurcates from the main branch to decaying solution branches. In this research, the uncertainty quantification (UQ) is applied to examine the sensitivity of RC correction coefficients and the coefficients are modified based on the UQ analysis to improve the model's behavior. Both these approaches are applied to the widely used turbulence models (SA, SST k-[omega] and WA) and they show some improvement in predictions of turbulent flow in all benchmark test cases considered, namely the flow in a 2D curved duct, flow in a 2D U-turn duct, fully developed turbulent flow in a 2D rotating channel, fully developed turbulent flow in a 2D rotating backward-facing step, flow in a rotating cavity, flow in a stationary and rotating serpentine channel, flow in a rotor-stator cavity and in a hydrocyclone as well as two wall-unbounded turbulent flow cases. All the simulations are conducted using the commercial software ANSYS Fluent and the open source CFD software OpenFOAM. The success of this research should enhance the ability of the RANS modeling for more accurate prediction of complex turbulent flows with rotation and curvature effects. In addition to the RANS modeling of RC effects, a new DES model incorporating the WA2017m-RC turbulence model (referred to as the WA2017m-RC-DES model) is developed and validated against experimental and DNS data. Further improvements are obtained with the DES model in some test cases.
