Towards roughness-based drag reduction in cross-flow dominated flows
April 10-15, 2016 Abstract Recent theoretical results are presented from our ongoing study investigating the distinct convective instability properties of the boundary-layer flow over rough rotating disks. In this study, radial anisotropic surface roughness (concentric grooves) is modelled using the partial-slip approach of Miklavčič & Wang (2004) and the surface-geometry approach of Yoon et. a...
متن کاملDerivation of turbulent energy of fiber suspensions
The energy equation for turbulent flow of fiber suspensions was derived in terms of second order correlation tensors. Fiber motion of turbulent energy including the correlation between pressure fluctuations and velocity fluctuations was discussed at two points of flow field, at which the correlation tensors were the functions of space coordinates, distance between two points, and time.
متن کاملDirect Numerical Simulation of Two-phase Flows with Application to Air Layer Drag Reduction
An accurate and robust numerical method has been developed to simulate turbulent two-phase flows. The phase interface is tracked by the level-set method to capture frequent topological changes due to breaking or merging. Because of the broad-band characteristics of length scales in two-phase flow, a Lagrangian drop breakup model has been developed, which is coupled to the level-set method. In t...
متن کاملAnalysis and Finite Element Simulation of Mhd Flows, with an Application to Seawater Drag Reduction
Much research effort has recently been devoted to the electromagnetic control of saltwater flows, exploiting the macroscopic interaction of saltwater with electric currents and magnetic fields. This interaction is governed by the equations of viscous incompressible MHD, essentially, the Navier-Stokes equations coupled to Maxwell’s equations. A major problem in the analysis and numerical solutio...
متن کاملForm Drag on Ocean Flows
Form drag is a central process linking rough topography to ocean mixing processes. The history of the measurement of form drag in the ocean and atmosphere is reviewed. The basic equations governing form drag and its role in energy conversion are derived for a Boussinesq fluid, focusing on the case of tidal flow. Observational and numerical results are shown for stratified, tidal flow near a hea...
