Elastic turbulence in curvilinear flows of polymer solutions
Following our first report (A Groisman and V Steinberg 2000 Nature 405 53), we present an extended account of experimental observations of elasticity-induced turbulence in three different systems: a swirling flow between two plates, a Couette–Taylor (CT) flow between two cylinders, and a flow in a curvilinear channel (Dean flow). All three set-ups had a high ratio of the width of the region ava...
متن کاملParametric study of a viscoelastic RANS turbulence model in the fully developed channel flow
One of the newest of viscoelastic RANS turbulence models for drag reducing channel flow with polymer additives is studied in different flow and rheological properties. In this model, finitely extensible nonlinear elastic-Peterlin (FENE-P) constitutive model is used to describe the viscoelastic effect of polymer solution and turbulence model is developed in the k-ϵ-(ν^2 ) ̅-f framework. The geome...
متن کاملElastic waves and transition to elastic turbulence in a two-dimensional viscoelastic Kolmogorov flow.
We investigate the dynamics of the two-dimensional periodic Kolmogorov flow of a viscoelastic fluid, described by the Oldroyd-B model, by means of direct numerical simulations. Above a critical Weissenberg number the flow displays a transition from stationary to randomly fluctuating states, via periodic ones. The increasing complexity of the flow in both time and space at progressively higher v...
متن کاملA study of turbulence in open channel flow
Three series of experiments were conducted to study the effect of Reynolds number, near-wall perturbation and background turbulence on the characteristics of smooth open channel flows. Measurements were carried out using a laser Doppler anemometer. The variables of interest include the mean velocity, the turbulence intensity, probability density distribution and Gram-Charlier series coefficient...
