This book was released on 1969 with total page 92 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The equations of motion and total enthalpy are derived for a compressible turbulent boundary layer on an axisymmetric or two-dimensional surface with non-negligible longitudinal curvature. From these equations are derived the integral-momentum, kinetic-energy, and total-enthalpy equations for non-negligible longitudinal curvature. Calculations indicate that if concave curvature increases the skin friction sufficiently separation is delayed although the boundary layer is thickened. Also, an increase in curvature in the direction in which the surface pressure rises acts to hasten separation for concave curvature and delay it for convex curvature. (Author).

This book was released on 1970 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The title problem is considered for the case of flow past a circular cylinder placed normal to a uniform mainstream with Reynolds numbers from 40 to 200. Implicit finite difference numerical solutions are obtained for a set of boundary-layer equations that take account of the second order effects associated with surface curvature and displacement speed. It was found that both of these contributors have a significant influence on the internal structure of the viscous region and that an accurate estimate of the surface pressure distribution is essential for estimating the surface shear stress.

This book was released on 1985 with total page 19 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work was concerned with a study of subsonic boundary layer behavior downstream of a 90 degree convex bend with a boundary layer thickness of radius-of-curvature ratio of approximately 0.1. Only mean flow results are available. They indicate that the boundary layer, severely distorted when it exits from the curved region, experiences several stages in the recovery process as it relaxes on the flat plate. These stages are described in detail. Keywords: Turbulence.

Book excerpt: In 1975 the U.S. Air Force and the Federal Republic of Germany signed a Data Exchange Agreement numbered AF-75-G-7440 entitled 'Viscous and Interacting Flow Fields.' The purpose was to exchange data in the area of boundary layer research. It includes both experimental and theoretical boundary layer research at speeds from subsonic to hypersonic Mach numbers in the presence of laminar, transitional, and turbulent boundary layers. The main effort in recent years has been on turbulent boundary layers, both attached and separated in the presence of such parameters as pressure gradients, wall temperature, surface roughness, etc. In the United States the research was conducted in various Department of Defense, NASA, aircraft corporations, and various university laboratories. In the Federal Republic of Germany it was carried out within the various DFVLR, industrial, and university research centers.

This book was released on 1982 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Concave curvature has a relatively large, unpredictable effect on turbulent boundary layers. Some, but not all previous studies suggest that a large-scale, stationary array of counter-rotating vortices exists within the turbulent boundary layer on a concave wall. The objective of the present study was to obtain a qualitative model of the flow field in order to increase our understanding of the underlying physics. A large free-surface water channel was constructed in order to perform a visual study of the flow. Streamwise components of mean velocity and turbulence intensity were measured using a hot film anemometer. The upstream boundary was spanwise uniform with a momentum thickness to radius of curvature of 0.05. Compared to flat wall flow, large-scale, randomly distributed sweeps and ejections were seen in the boundary layer on the concave wall. The sweeps appear to suppress the normal mechanism for turbulence production near the wall by inhibiting the bursting process. The ejections appear to enhance turbulence production in the outer layers as the low speed fluid convected from regions near the wall interacts with the higher speed fluid farther out. The large-scale structures did not occur at fixed spanwise locations, and could not be called roll cells or vortices. (Author).

Download or read book Solutions of the Second order Boundary layer Equations for Laminar Incompressible Flow written by Michael J Werle and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Use is made of self similarity approach and integral momentum technique to obtain solutions of Van Dyke's second-order boundary-layer equations for laminar incompressible flow. Accurate numerical solutions of the most general self similar equations are tabulated for the four second-order contributions due to vorticity interaction, displacement speed, longitudinal curvature, and transverse curvature. A limited number of closed form solutions are obtained which appear to have special significance at the point of first-order boundary-layer separation. In particular it is found that the displacement speed problem can proceed up to separation for only two values of the second-order pressure gradient. All other cases display an infinite discontinuity at this point. Numerical solutions of a large number of cases for the longitudinal and transverse curvature effects well support an identical conclusion. The integral momentum technique applied (a straight forward extension of the Karmen-Pohlhausen solutions) is found to be oversensitive to approximations and in the final analysis is rejected in favor of locally similar solutions.
