Spatial structure of the viscous boundary layer in turbulent convection
We present an experimental study of the spatial structure of the velocity field in the boundary layer region of a Rayleigh-Bénard convection cell, using water as the working fluid. Our results show that the mean flow, the shear rate, and the viscous boundary layer thickness all change significantly across the conducting horizontal surface of the cell. Moreover, the measurements reveal that the ...
متن کاملViscous Boundary-Layer Damping of r-Modes in Neutron Stars.
Recent work has raised the exciting possibility that r-modes (Rossby waves) in rotating neutron star cores might be strong gravitational-wave sources. We estimate the effect of a solid crust on their viscous damping rate and show that the dissipation rate in the viscous boundary layer between the oscillating fluid and the nearly static crust is more than 105 times higher than that from the shea...
متن کاملBoundary Layer Meshing for Viscous Flows in Complex Domains
High reynolds number ow simulations exhibit strong gradients normal to walls and across shear layers requiring much ner resolution of the solution in some directions compared to others. To keep mesh sizes manageable for such problems, meshes with highly anisotropic elements are necessary. In this paper, a method for generating boundary layer meshes for arbitrarily complex non-manifold geometric...
متن کاملViscous boundary-layer effects in nearly inviscid cylindrical flows
The dynamics of flow inside a cylinder at high Reynolds number are considered. A study of the viscous boundary layer near the walls is performed. In the case where there is no pressure gradient, a result is proven demonstrating that a regular perturbation expansion holds for the solution, even when a small discontinuity exists in the wall data. In addition, the characteristic decay rate of the ...
متن کاملNumerical Solution of Boundary Layer MHD Flow with Viscous Dissipation
The present paper deals with a steady two-dimensional laminar flow of a viscous incompressible electrically conducting fluid over a shrinking sheet in the presence of uniform transverse magnetic field with viscous dissipation. Using suitable similarity transformations the governing partial differential equations are transformed into ordinary differential equations and then solved numerically by...
