This book was released on 2004 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The compressible filtered Navier-Stokes equations were solved using a second order accurate finite volume method with low Mach number preconditioning. A dynamic subgrid-scale stress model accounted for the subgrid-scale turbulence. The study focused on the effects of buoyancy and rotation on the structure of turbulence and transport processes including heat transfer. Several different physical arrangements were studied as outlined below. The effects of buoyancy were first studied in a vertical channel using large eddy simulation (LES). The walls were maintained at constant temperatures, one heated and the other cooled. Results showed that aiding and opposing buoyancy forces emerge near the heated and cooled walls, respectively. In the aiding flow, the turbulent intensities and heat transfer were suppressed at large values of Grashof number. In the opposing flow, however, turbulence was enhanced with increased velocity fluctuations. Another buoyancy study considered turbulent flow in a vertically oriented annulus. Isoflux wall boundary conditions with low and high heating were imposed on the inner wall while the outer wall was adiabatic. The results showed that the strong heating and buoyancy force caused distortions of the flow structure resulting in reduction of turbulent intensities, shear stress, and turbulent heat flux, particularly near the heated wall. Flow in an annular pipe with and without an outer wall rotation about its axis was first investigated at moderate Reynolds numbers. When the outer pipe wall was rotated, a significant reduction of turbulent kinetic energy was realized near the rotating wall. Secondly, a large eddy simulation has been performed to investigate the effect of swirl on the heat and momentum transfer in an annular pipe flow with a rotating inner wall. The simulations indicated that the Nusselt number and the wall friction coefficient increased with increasing rotation speed of the wall. It was also observed that the axial velocity profile became flattened and turbulent intensities were enhanced due to swirl. As a part of the study of rotation effects, a large eddy simulation of a rotating ribbed channel flow with the heat transfer was investigated. The rotation axis was parallel to the spanwise direction of the parallel plate channel. Uniform heat flux was applied to the channel for two rates of rotation. The results showed that near the stable (leading) side, the turbulent intensities and heat transfer were suppressed, but turbulence was enhanced with increasing shear stress and turbulent kinetic energy near the unstable (trailing) side.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A compressible finite volume formulation for large eddy simulation (LES) of turbulent channel flows was extended to solve the turbulent flows in pipes and annular passages. A general finite volume scheme was developed based on conservation equations in Cartesian coordinates with non-Cartesian control volumes. A dual-time stepping approach with time derivative preconditioning was employed and time marching was done with an implicit lower-upper-symmetric-Gauss-Seidel (LU-SGS) scheme. The small scale motions were modeled by a dynamic subgrid-scale (SGS) model. The code was developed in a multiblock framework and parallelized using the message passing interface (MPI). The finite volume LES formulation was validated by simulating the isothermal fully developed turbulent pipe and annular flows. The results were compared to experimental data and direct numerical simulation (DNS) results. The LES formulation was further validated by the simulation of turbulent pipe flows with low heat transfer and comparisons with passive scalar DNS results. Finally, buoyancy forces were added into the LES formulation to simulate mixed convection in a vertical pipe with constant high wall heat fluxes leading to significant property variations. Step-periodic boundary conditions were studied and implemented. The results were validated by comparing with experimental results. Heating effects and flow laminarization were studied. Excellent agreement with DNS and experimental results were obtained for isothermal turbulent pipe and annular flows. The mean temperature profile for the turbulent pipe flow with low heat transfer matched very well with the DNS passive scalar results. Good matches to constant property correlations were also achieved for friction coefficients and Nusselt numbers. For the mixed convection in a vertical pipe, good agreement with the experimental mean streamwise velocity and temperature profiles was obtained. High heating tended to suppress the turbulent intensities and attenuate the turbulent kinetic energy. The thinner viscous layer led to a larger Nusselt numbers which indicated a higher heat transfer rate. Laminarization phenomena were observed along with large overprediction of friction coefficients and underprediction of Nusselt numbers when comparing to fully turbulent property variation correlations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis work, large eddy simulation was used to study a variety of wall-bounded turbulent flows using a compressible finite volume formulation. Subgrid scale terms in both momentum and energy equations were modeled dynamically. Furthermore, due to the inhomogeniety of wall-bounded flows, the model was further localized to better represent the physics of the problem. The model was first applied to study the incompressible turbulent flow through a duct with square cross-section. Mean flow, law of the wall, and turbulence statistics were compared with the benchmark results of direct numerical simulation and excellent agreement was achieved. The secondary flow in the cross-section was captured. It is composed of four pairs of counter-rotating cells. The interaction between mean and secondary flow fields creates some important features and they were studied in this work. Based on incompressible duct flow, system rotation was applied to investigate the effects of rotation on the turbulent flow field. The system rotation was found to reduce turbulence level on the leading side, while increase turbulence level on the trailing side. Because of the rotation, the secondary flow field in non-rotating duct was found to be diminished at weaker rotation and even eliminated at stronger rotation. Instead, a pair of counter rotating cells called Taylor-Görtler vortices, as well as the Taylor-Proudman regime, was found to exist in the cross-section, which is consistent with the results of the literature. Large eddy simulation was also applied to investigate the effects of ribs and system rotation on heat transfer in a channel. It was found that a rib creates recirculation zones near the rib. The turbulence level is at its maximum near the ribs. The existence of ribs enhances heat transfer significantly over the plane channel, as well as creates low-heat-transfer-coefficient region in the recirculation zones. This means a balance is needed between global enhancement and local suppression. With system rotation, heat transfer is greatly enhanced on the trailing side, while significantly reduced on the leading side.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a truism that turbulence is an unsolved problem, whether in scientific, engin eering or geophysical terms. It is strange that this remains largely the case even though we now know how to solve directly, with the help of sufficiently large and powerful computers, accurate approximations to the equations that govern tur bulent flows. The problem lies not with our numerical approximations but with the size of the computational task and the complexity of the solutions we gen erate, which match the complexity of real turbulence precisely in so far as the computations mimic the real flows. The fact that we can now solve some turbu lence in this limited sense is nevertheless an enormous step towards the goal of full understanding. Direct and large-eddy simulations are these numerical solutions of turbulence. They reproduce with remarkable fidelity the statistical, structural and dynamical properties of physical turbulent and transitional flows, though since the simula tions are necessarily time-dependent and three-dimensional they demand the most advanced computer resources at our disposal. The numerical techniques vary from accurate spectral methods and high-order finite differences to simple finite-volume algorithms derived on the principle of embedding fundamental conservation prop erties in the numerical operations. Genuine direct simulations resolve all the fluid motions fully, and require the highest practical accuracy in their numerical and temporal discretisation. Such simulations have the virtue of great fidelity when carried out carefully, and repre sent a most powerful tool for investigating the processes of transition to turbulence.

Download or read book Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Flows with Property Variations Rotation and Complex Geometry written by Ning Meng and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mean and fluctuation velocity profiles approach the incompressible results when normalized by local properties, as opposed to wall values. Spanwise system rotation is found to suppress turbulent velocity fluctuations and shear stresses near the stable side of the channel, but enhance the fluctuations and shear stresses near the unstable side. Turbulent temperature fluctuations and turbulent heat flux decreased near the stable side of the channel, but increased near the unstable side of the channel. In the case of the rib-roughened channel flow, a small recirculation zone before the rib and a larger recirculation zone after the rib are observed. Increased turbulent fluctuations and heat transfer are found around the rib.
