Book Theoretical   Experimental Investigation of Coherent Structure in the Turbulent Boundary Layer

Download or read book Theoretical Experimental Investigation of Coherent Structure in the Turbulent Boundary Layer written by D. E. Abbott and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 17 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project combines both experimental video flow visualization studies and theoretical investigations of a series of phenomenological and theoretical models based upon the three-dimensional details of convected, coherent structural elements of a turbulent flow as it interacts with a solid surface. The progress over the past year has led to the experimental consideration of range of sub-problems including high Reynolds Number (4,000,000) turbulent flows, the effect of surface modification on low-speed streak formation, and the effect of vortex loop interaction with a solid boundary. To augment the visualization pictures, a computerized video-digitizing system has been developed. Preliminary results show tremendous promise for obtaining quantitative data from flow visualization pictures. The specific thrust of the theoretical studies has been focussed on three areas: (1) how two- and three-dimensional vortex structures interact with wall boundary layers, (2) the development of a new type of prediction method for two-dimensional turbulent boundary-layer flows, and (3) improvement in numerical techniques for solving parabolic, boundary-layer equations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first four symposia in the series on turbulent shear flows have been held alternately in the United States and Europe with the first and third being held at universities in eastern and western States, respectively. Continuing this pattern, the Fifth Symposium on Turbulent Shear Flows was held at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York, in August 1985. The meeting brought together more than 250 participants from around the world to present the results of new research on turbulent shear flows. It also provided a forum for lively discussions on the implications (practical or academic) of some of the papers. Nearly 100 formal papers and about 20 shorter communications in open forums were presented. In all the areas covered, the meeting helped to underline the vitality of current research into turbulent shear flows whether in experimental, theoretical or numerical studies. The present volume contains 25 of the original symposium presentations. All have been further reviewed and edited and several have been considerably extended since their first presentation. The editors believe that the selection provides papers of archival value that, at the same time, give a representative statement of current research in the four areas covered by this book: - Homogeneous and Simple Flows - Free Flows - Wall Flows - Reacting Flows Each of these sections begins with an introductory article by a distinguished worker in the field.

Book Coherent Structure of a Turbulent Boundary Layer in a Convected Reference Frame

Download or read book Coherent Structure of a Turbulent Boundary Layer in a Convected Reference Frame written by C. R. Smith and published by . This book was released on 1977 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an interim annual report for an ongoing research program studying coherent structure in turbulent boundary layers. The design and development of a water channel facility for use in flow visualization studies of coherent turbulent boundary structure is described. The particularly unique aspects of this facility include the incorporation of (1) a moving reference (viewing) platform for study of relative motion effects and (2) a closed circuit television monitoring and recording system. Preliminary flow visualization results are presented for both a fixed and moving reference frame, and a tentative vortex-loop model of coherent turbulent boundary layer structure is proposed. Computer simulations of a transverse structure in a turbulent boundary layer are presented showing a remarkable similarity with experimental flow visualization results. Research directions for the following year are outlined. (Author).

Book Liutex and Its Applications in Turbulence Research

Download or read book Liutex and Its Applications in Turbulence Research written by Chaoqun Liu and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Liutex and Its Applications in Turbulence Research reviews the history of vortex definition, provides an accurate mathematical definition of vortices, and explains their applications in flow transition, turbulent flow, flow control, and turbulent flow experiments. The book explains the term "Rortex" as a mathematically defined rigid rotation of fluids or vortex, which could help solve many longstanding problems in turbulence research. The accurate mathematical definition of the vortex is important in a range of industrial contexts, including aerospace, turbine machinery, combustion, and electronic cooling systems, so there are many areas of research that can benefit from the innovations described here. This book provides a thorough survey of the latest research in generalized and flow-thermal, unified, law-of-the-wall for wall-bounded turbulence. Important theory and methodologies used for developing these laws are described in detail, including: the classification of the conventional turbulent boundary layer concept based on proper velocity scaling; the methodology for identification of the scales of velocity, temperature, and length needed to establish the law; and the discovery, proof, and strict validations of the laws, with both Reynolds and Prandtl number independency properties using DNS data. The establishment of these statistical laws is important to modern fluid mechanics and heat transfer research, and greatly expands our understanding of wall-bounded turbulence.

Book Transport and Coherent Structures in Wall Turbulence

Download or read book Transport and Coherent Structures in Wall Turbulence written by Sedat Tardu and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall bounded turbulent flows are of major importance in industrial and environmental fluid mechanics. The structure of the wall turbulence is intrinsically related to the coherent structures that play a fundamental role in the transport process. The comprehension of their regeneration mechanism is indispensable for the development of efficient strategies in terms of drag control and near wall turbulence management. This book provides an up-to-date overview on the progress made in this specific area in recent years.

Book On The Possible Relationship Between the Transition Process and the Large Coherent Structures in Turbulent Boundary Layers

Download or read book On The Possible Relationship Between the Transition Process and the Large Coherent Structures in Turbulent Boundary Layers written by Israel J. Wygnanski and published by . This book was released on 1978 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A transitional spot, being artifically evoked in a laminar boundary layer, is shown to be related to the large scale motion in a turbulent boundary layer. The evoked spot has a universal structure which remains coherent in a turbulent boundary layer over extremely large distances. The interaction between adjacent spots in tandem has been studied and it appears that some important feature of the turbulent boundary layer may be simulated this way. A possible regeneration mechanism of the transitional spot was identified, reinforcing the notion that a transitional spot is an orderly structure which may be considered as the basic module in the turbulent boundary layer.

Book Turbulence and Coherent Structures

Download or read book Turbulence and Coherent Structures written by O. Métais and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-03-14 with total page 626 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last 25 years, one of the most striking advances in Fluid Mecha nics was certainly the discovery of coherent structures in turbulence: lab oratory experiments and numerical simulations have shown that most turbulent flows exhibit both spatially-organized large-scale structures and disorganized motions, generally at smaller scales. The develop ment of new measurement and visualization techniques have allowed a more precise characterization and investigation of these structures in the laboratory. Thanks to the unprecedented increase of computer power and to the development of efficient interactive three-dimensional colour graphics, computational fluid dynamicists can explore the still myste rious world of turbulence. However, many problems remain unsolved concerning the origin of these structures, their dynamics, and their in teraction with the disorganized motions. In this book will be found the latest results of experimentalists, theoreticians and numerical modellers interested in these topics. These coherent structures may appear on airplane wings or slender bodies, mixing layers, jets, wakes or boundary-layers. In free-shear flows and in boundary layers, the results presented here highlight the intense three-dimensional character of the vortices. The two-dimensional large scale eddies are very sensitive to three-dimensional perturbations, whose amplification leads to the formation of three-dimensional coherent vorti cal structures, such as streamwise, hairpin or horseshoe vortex filaments. This book focuses on modern aspects of turbulence study. Relations between turbulence theory and optimal control theory in mathematics are discussed. This may have important applications with regard to, e. g. , numerical weather forecasting.
