Decaying grid turbulence in a rotating stratified fluid
Rotating grid turbulence experiments have been carried out in a stably stratified fluid for relatively large Reynolds numbers (mesh Reynolds numbers up to 18 000). Under the combined effects of rotation and stratification the flow degenerates into quasihorizontal motions. This regime is investigated using a scanning imaging velocimetry technique which provides time-resolved velocity fields in a...
متن کاملSecularly growing oscillations in a stratified rotating fluid
A simple exact solution of the Boussinesq equations of motion, thermal energy, and mass conservation is obtained for an oscillatory flow regime in a stably stratified rotating fluid. The flow is unbounded and characterized by velocity gradients that vary with time but are spatially uniform—the basic state of Craik-Criminale flows. The solution describes an oscillatory convergent-divergent flow ...
متن کاملRising motion of a swarm of drops in a linearly stratified fluid
Direct numerical simulations of a swarm of deformable drops rising in density stratified fluids are presented at intermediate Reynolds numbers. All flow scales are fully resolved using front-tracking/ finite-volume method. The average rise velocity and velocity fluctuations of the swarm are reduced in the presence of density stratification. The isotropy in velocity fluctuations is enhanced as t...
متن کاملFedsm 2013-16046 Interaction between a Pair of Drops Ascending in a Linearly Stratified Fluid
In this paper, we provide fully resolved three-dimensional direct numerical simulations of ascending motion of a pair of drops in a linearly stratified fluid using a finite-volume/front-tracking method. We study the density stratification effects on the rise velocity of drops and their stable position for different initial alignments. Due to the formation of a jet in the lee of a single drop ri...
متن کاملThe drag on a vertically moving grid of bars in a linearly stratified fluid
We present the results of an investigation of the drag force on a horizontal grid of bars moving vertically through a stratified fluid. A novel approach was used to calculate the drag, based on measurements of the terminal velocity of a freely rising grid. In the homogeneous case the drag coefficient of the grid is found to be approximately constant for a range of grid-based Reynolds numbers. I...
