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: Most natural and industrial flows are turbulent. The atmosphere and oceans, automobile and aircraft engines, all provide examples of this ubiquitous phenomenon. In recent years, turbulence has become a very lively area of scientific research and application, attracting many newcomers who need a basic introduction to the subject. An Introduction to Turbulent Flow, first published in 2000, offers a solid grounding in the subject of turbulence, developing both physical insight and the mathematical framework needed to express the theory. It begins with a review of the physical nature of turbulence, statistical tools, and space and time scales of turbulence. Basic theory is presented next, illustrated by examples of simple turbulent flows and developed through classical models of jets, wakes, and boundary layers. A deeper understanding of turbulence dynamics is provided by spectral analysis and its applications. The final chapter introduces the numerical simulation of turbulent flows. This well-balanced text will interest graduate students in engineering, applied mathematics, and the physical sciences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of articles has its origin in a meeting which took place June 12-15, 1989, on the grounds of Salve Regina College in Newport, Rhode Island. The meeting was blessed by beautiful, balmy weather and an idyllic setting. The sessions themselves took place in Ochre Court, one of the elegant and stately old summer cottages for which Newport is acclaimed. Lectures were presented in the grand ballroom overlooking the famous Cliff Walk and Block Island Sound. Counter to general belief, the pleasant surroundings did not appear to encourage truancy or in any other way diminish the quality of the meeting. On the contrary, for the four days of the meeting there was a high level of excitement and optimism about the new perspectives in turbulence, a tone that carried over to lively dinner and evening discussions. The participants represented a broad range of backgrounds, extending from pure mathemat ics to experimental engineering. A dialogue began with the first speakers which cut across the boundaries and gave to the meeting a mood of unity which persisted.

This book was released on 2022 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The analysis of turbulence by way of higher-order spectral moments is uncommon, despite the relatively frequent use of such statistical analyses in other fields of physics and engineering. In this work, higher-order spectral moments are used to investigate the internal intermittency of the turbulent velocity and passive scalar (temperature) fields. This research first introduces the theory behind higher-order spectral moments as they pertain to the field of turbulence. Then, a short-time-Fourier-transform-based method is developed to estimate the higher-order spectral moments and provide a relative, scale-by-scale measure of intermittency. Experimental data are subsequently analysed and consist of measurements of homogeneous, isotropic, high-Reynolds-number, passive and active grid turbulence and wall-bounded turbulence (fully developed turbulent channel flow) over Taylor microscale Reynolds numbers between 35 and 731. Emphasis is placed on third- and fourth-order spectral moments using the definitions formalised by Antoni (2006), as such statistics are sensitive to transients and provide insight into deviations from Gaussian behaviour in grid turbulence. The higher-order spectral moments are also used to investigate the Reynolds and Péclet number dependence of the internal intermittency of velocity and passive scalar fields, respectively. The results demonstrate that the evolution of higher-order spectral moments with Reynolds number is strongly dependent on wavenumber. Additionally, the relative levels of internal intermittency of velocity and passive scalar fields are compared and a higher level of internal intermittency in the inertial subrange of the scalar field is consistently observed whereas a similar level of internal intermittency is observed for the velocity and passive scalar fields for the high-Reynolds-numbers-cases as the Kolmogorov length scale is approached. Finally, higher-order spectral moments are shown to display increased levels in the near-wall region of a wall-bounded (channel) flow. The increased intermittent activity is believed to be caused by the presence of coherent structures in wall-bounded flows"--

Download or read book Turbulence written by Christophe Bailly and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-03-21 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the major problems of turbulence and turbulent processes, including physical phenomena, their modeling and their simulation. After a general introduction in Chapter 1 illustrating many aspects dealing with turbulent flows, averaged equations and kinetic energy budgets are provided in Chapter 2. The concept of turbulent viscosity as a closure of the Reynolds stress is also introduced. Wall-bounded flows are presented in Chapter 3 and aspects specific to boundary layers and channel or pipe flows are also pointed out. Free shear flows, namely free jets and wakes, are considered in Chapter 4. Chapter 5 deals with vortex dynamics. Homogeneous turbulence, isotropy and dynamics of isotropic turbulence are presented in Chapters 6 and 7. Turbulence is then described both in the physical space and in the wave number space. Time dependent numerical simulations are presented in Chapter 8, where an introduction to large eddy simulation is offered. The last three chapters of the book summarize remarkable digital techniques current and experimental. Many results are presented in a practical way, based on both experiments and numerical simulations. The book is written for a advanced engineering students as well as postgraduate engineers and researchers. For students, it contains the essential results as well as details and demonstrations whose oral transmission is often tedious. At a more advanced level, the text provides numerous references which allow readers to find quickly further study regarding their work and to acquire a deeper knowledge on topics of interest.
