Book The Effect of Transverse Curvature on the Fluctuating Wall Pressure and Structure of Boundary Layer Turbulence

Download or read book The Effect of Transverse Curvature on the Fluctuating Wall Pressure and Structure of Boundary Layer Turbulence written by and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This document consists of the text and viewgraphs of a paper presented at the ONR Workshop on Nonequilibrium Turbulence held at Arizona State University in Tempe, Arizona, from 10-1 2 March 1993. This workshop was the first step of an ONR Accelerated Research Initiative (ARI) to establish the state-of-the-art for theory, computation, and experimentation relevant to turbulence in a nonequilibrium state, or, more generally, to turbulence in complex flows. The overall goal of the initiative is to understand the behavior of turbulence in such complex conditions in order to advance our prediction and control capabilities. When a cylinder in axial flow is sufficiently long and thin, the growth of the boundary layer results in its thickness exceeding the radius of the cylinder such that the three-dimensional effects due to transverse curvature cannot be neglected. With this condition, the wall of the cylinder provides less constraint on the outer flow and motion of eddies than is experienced in an equilibrium flat plate boundary layer, introducing an avenue for enhanced inner-layer/outer-layer interaction and modified turbulence activity. In this paper, we present results of measurements of the fluctuating wall pressure and turbulent streamwise velocity in the turbulent boundary layer on a cylinder in axial flow to identify the coherent structures that contribute to the fluctuating pressure at the wall. Determining the influence of transverse curvature on the relationship between the wall pressure and velocity field allows examination of its effect on the structure of equilibrium boundary layer turbulence.

Book Study of Longitudinal Curvature Effects in Turbulent Boundary Layers with Application to Drag Reduction

Download or read book Study of Longitudinal Curvature Effects in Turbulent Boundary Layers with Application to Drag Reduction written by A. J. Smits and published by . 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 The Effects of Streamwise Concave Curvature on Turbulent Boundary Layer Structure

Download or read book The Effects of Streamwise Concave Curvature on Turbulent Boundary Layer Structure written by Albert H. Jeans and published by . 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).

Book Some Characteristics of Turbulent Boundary Layers in Rapidly Accelerated Flows

Download or read book Some Characteristics of Turbulent Boundary Layers in Rapidly Accelerated Flows written by Paul F. Brinich and published by . This book was released on 1971 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An analysis of time-mean-turbulent boundary layer velocity profiles measured in a rapidly accelerating flow suggests that the outer region of the velocity profiles consists of essentially inviscid, rotational flow. The extent of this inviscid outer region was observed in some cases to exceed 90 percent of what is ordinarily thought of as the turbulent boundary layer thickness. On the other hand, the inner frictional region of these velocity profiles appears to have turbulent characteristics similar to those of more conventional turbulent boundary layers. Hence, the outer edge boundary condition for this inner region is more properly the external rotational flow region than the free stream.
