Turbulent Flow through Idealized Emergent Vegetation
This paper presents results of several large-eddy simulations LES of turbulent flow in an open channel through staggered arrays of rigid, emergent cylinders, which can be regarded as idealized vegetation. In this study, two cylinder Reynolds numbers, RD =1,340 and RD=500, and three vegetation densities are considered. The LES of the lowest density and at RD=1,340 corresponds to a recently compl...
متن کاملLarge scale flow around turbulent spots
Numerical simulations of a model of plane Couette flow focusing on its in-plane spatio-temporal properties are used to study the dynamics of turbulent spots. While the core of a spot is filled with small scale velocity fluctuations, a large scale flow extending far away and occupying the full gap between the driving plates is revealed upon filtering out small scales. It is characterized by stre...
متن کاملWind Tunnel Investigation of the Turbulent Flow around the Panorama Giustinelli Building for VAWT Application
A boundary layer wind tunnel facility has been adopted in order to conduct experimental measurements of the flow field around a model of the Panorama Giustinelli Building, Trieste (Italy). Information on the main flow structures has been obtained by means of flow visualization techniques and has been compared to the numerical predictions of the vortical structures spread on top of the roof, in ...
متن کاملSimulation of turbulent flow around cylinders
Statistical flow modelling does not provide enough detail for many flows of engineering relevance in which unsteadiness is a central feature. This applies particularly to bluff-bodies and assemblies comprising bluff components for which the resolution of peak forces, unsteady loading, acoustics and fatigue are of interest as part of the design process. An example application which has been stud...
متن کاملTurbulent Flow in Wetlands with Submerged and Floating Vegetation
Turbulent Flow in wetlands with submerged and floating aquatic plants was studied by applying Boit’s poroelastic theory to turbulent flow. The velocity distribution formulas were described by solving the modified Bessel equations. The effects of plant porosity and turbulent coefficient on the velocity distribution, shear stress distribution and energy relations were analytically derived. Severa...
