Book The Motion of Turbulent Vortex pairs in Homogeneous and Density Stratified Media

Download or read book The Motion of Turbulent Vortex pairs in Homogeneous and Density Stratified Media written by Marshall P. Tulin and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A theory for the motion of two-dimensional turbulent vortex pairs in homogeneous media has been developed based on separate velocity scaling of the internal and external flow fields involved in the motion and taking into account variations in volume, circulation, momentum, and energy. Based on the results obtained from this theory, a simplified theory is derived to deal with the rising motion of turbulent vortex pairs in stratified media. The theoretical results are compared with systematic experimental observations.

Book Initiation of Long Wave Instability of Vortex Pairs at Cruise Altitudes

Download or read book Initiation of Long Wave Instability of Vortex Pairs at Cruise Altitudes written by Vernon J. Rossow and published by BiblioGov. This book was released on 2013-06 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous studies have usually attributed the initiation of the long-wave instability of a vortex pair to turbulence in the atmosphere or in the wake of the aircraft. The purpose here is to show by use of observations and photographs of condensation trails shed by aircraft at cruise altitudes that another initiating mechanism is not only possible but is usually the mechanism that initiates the long-wave instability at cruise altitudes. The alternate initiating mechanism comes about when engine thrust is robust enough to form an array of circumferential vortices around each jet-engine-exhaust stream. In those cases, initiation begins when the vortex sheet shed by the wing has rolled up into a vortex pair and descended to the vicinity of the inside bottom of the combined shear-layer vortex arrays. It is the in-and-out (up and down) velocity field between sequential circumferential vortices near the bottom of the array that then impresses disturbance waves on the lift-generated vortex pair that initiate the long-wave instability. A time adjustment to the Crow and Bate estimate for vortex linking is then derived for cases when thrust-based linking occurs.

Book Fluid Vortices

Download or read book Fluid Vortices written by Beverley Green and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1995-03-31 with total page 916 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fluid Vortices is a comprehensive, up-to-date, research-level overview covering all salient flows in which fluid vortices play a significant role. The various chapters have been written by specialists from North America, Europe and Asia, making for unsurpassed depth and breadth of coverage. Topics addressed include fundamental vortex flows (mixing layer vortices, vortex rings, wake vortices, vortex stability, etc.), industrial and environmental vortex flows (aero-propulsion system vortices, vortex-structure interaction, atmospheric vortices, computational methods with vortices, etc.), and multiphase vortex flows (free-surface effects, vortex cavitation, and bubble and particle interactions with vortices). The book can also be recommended as an advanced graduate-level supplementary textbook. The first nine chapters of the book are suitable for a one-term course; chapters 10--19 form the basis for a second one-term course.

Book An Experimental Study of Wind wave Interactions

Download or read book An Experimental Study of Wind wave Interactions written by Richard Ives Hires and published by . This book was released on 1968 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An experimental investigation was made to determine the ratio of the wave-supported shear stress, phi sub w; to the total shear stress on the water surface, phi sub o. The experimental conditions were designed to correspond to those required for the application of the viscous shear flow theory of wave generation proposed by Brooke Benjamin (1959) and Miles (1962b). The experiments were performed in a wind-wave tunnel, 48 x 3-1/2 x 2 feet, with a mean water depth of 1-1/2 feet. The wind in the 6 in. air space above the water was fully-developed turbulent channel flow. The mean center-line wind speed, U sub xi, was kept constant at 1.20 m/s during all measurements made with the wind blowing over the water. An artificially generated, single-component, wave train of small amplitude provided a known, initial perturbation of the water surface with which the wind could interact. The range of wave frequencies investigated was from 4.0 to 5.2 cps. Wave measurements were made with capacitance wave probes, wind measurements with hot-wire anemometers. (Author).

Book Numerical and Analytical Studies of Two dimensional Vortex Pair Dynamics in Unstratified and Stratified Environments

Download or read book Numerical and Analytical Studies of Two dimensional Vortex Pair Dynamics in Unstratified and Stratified Environments written by Laura Katherine Brandt and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work investigates fundamental two-dimensional vortex pair dynamics in unstratified and stably stratified environments through numerical and analytical techniques. The study focuses on two main topics: (i) vortex interaction and merging of co-rotating vortex pairs and (ii) internal wave generation by co-rotating and counter-rotating vortex pairs. Two-dimensional vortex merging in a viscous fluid is studied using numerical simulations. Analysis of the ideal case of two equal co-rotating vortices (symmetric pair) identifies the basic underlying physics of vortex merger. Through the interaction of the vorticity gradient and the mutually induced strain rate near the central hyperbolic point, a tilt in vorticity contours is established. This leads to core detrainment and the entrainment of core fluid into the exchange band, which transforms the flow into a single vortex. In the case of the asymmetric (unequal strength) vortex pair, the disparity in the deformation rates between the vortices alters the interaction. A critical value for a strain rate parameter characterizing the establishment of core detrainment is determined. The onset of merging is associated with the achievement of the critical strain by both vortices and a generalized merging criterion is formulated. A classification scheme of the various viscous vortex interactions is developed. Results for the symmetric, horizontally oriented vortex pair in a weakly stratified fluid provide further insight on vortex merging. The effects of weak stratification depend on the ratio of the diffusive time scale to the turnover time, i.e., the Reynolds number. A crossover Reynolds number is found, above which convective merging is accelerated with respect to unstratified flow and below which it is delayed. The generation of internal waves by {\it horizontally} orientated co-rotating and counter-rotating vortex pairs is studied. Linearized inviscid equations are derived that describe the internal wave, vorticity and energy fields. These solutions are compared with nonlinear numerical viscous simulations in moderately and strongly stratified environments. Through evaluation of the energy field, the time at which the flow reaches a steady state for strongly stratified flows is found, along with a characterization of the regimes of strongly and moderately stratified environments.
