The critical layer in pipe flow at high Reynolds number.
We report the computation of a family of travelling wave solutions of pipe flow up to Re=75000. As in all lower branch solutions, streaks and rolls feature prominently in these solutions. For large Re, these solutions develop a critical layer away from the wall. Although the solutions are linearly unstable, the two unstable eigenvalues approach 0 as Re-->infinity at rates given by Re-0.41 and R...
متن کاملReynolds number dependence of the near-wall flow over irregular rough surfaces
The Reynolds number dependence of turbulent channel flow over two irregular rough surfaces, based on scans of a graphite and a gritblasted surface, is studied by direct numerical simulation. The aim is to characterise the changes in the flow in the immediate vicinity of and within the rough surfaces, an area of the flow where it is difficult to obtain experimental measurements. The average roug...
متن کاملStatistical Dependence of Inertial Range Properties on Large Scales in a High-Reynolds-Number Shear Flow.
For turbulent velocity data measured in high-Reynolds-number atmospheric surface layer, we show that the observed dependence of the inertial range statistics on large scale fluctuations is a manifestation of the mixed averaging of regions of different local Reynolds number. This dependence can be subsumed by the Obukhov conditional averaging and the second refined similarity hypothesis of Kolmo...
متن کاملMigration and deformation of bubbles rising in a wall-bounded shear flow at finite Reynolds number
The quasi-steady migration and deformation of bubbles rising in a wall-bounded linear shear flow are investigated experimentally in the low-but-finite-Reynolds-number regime. A travelling optical device that follows the bubble is used for this purpose. This apparatus allows us to determine accurately the bubble radius, contour and rising speed, together with the distance between the bubble and ...
متن کاملDetermination of the Nonlinear Equation Coefficients for Flow through Coarse Alluvium Foundations
As a result of the limitations in the application of Darcy Law (V=ki) to linear-laminar flow regimes through porous media and due to the fact that in coarse alluviums, the Reynolds number may exceed its critical value, the so-called Laplas equation cannot be used for precise analyses of coarse granular foundations. A more general relationship is, therefore, required for such cases. However, a c...
