Extreme Lagrangian acceleration in confined turbulent flow.
A Lagrangian study of two-dimensional turbulence for two different geometries, a periodic and a confined circular geometry, is presented to investigate the influence of solid boundaries on the Lagrangian dynamics. It is found that the Lagrangian acceleration is even more intermittent in the confined domain than in the periodic domain. The flatness of the Lagrangian acceleration as a function of...
متن کاملGPU acceleration of Eulerian–Lagrangian particle-laden turbulent flow simulations
Acceleration of an existing MPI-based, particle-laden turbulent flow simulation code is achieved using up to four NVIDIA GPU devices. The overall design is to transfer the entire flow velocity, temperature, and humidity fields to each device, and compute particle trajectories entirely on the GPU hardware. For one-way coupled turbulent flow simulations, accurate simulations can be achieved for l...
متن کاملLagrangian statistics in turbulent channel flow
The Lagrangian dispersion of fluid particles in inhomogeneous turbulence is investigated by a direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow. Lagrangian velocity and acceleration along a particle trajectory are computed by employing several interpolation schemes. Among the schemes tested, the four-point Hermite interpolation in the homogeneous directions combined with Chebyshev polynomia...
متن کاملAcceleration-driven variable- density turbulent flow
We discuss turbulent dynamics and mixing of a variable-density flow subject to a uniformacceleration field. The flow resulting from initial misalignments of pressure and density gradients is investigated for small to large density ratios, with evidence that the smalldensity ratio flow is described by the Boussinesq approximation. A new shear-layer growth rate is reported. Spectra collapse when ...
متن کاملTurbulent pipe flow at extreme Reynolds numbers.
Both the inherent intractability and complex beauty of turbulence reside in its large range of physical and temporal scales. This range of scales is captured by the Reynolds number, which in nature and in many engineering applications can be as large as 10(5)-10(6). Here, we report turbulence measurements over an unprecedented range of Reynolds numbers using a unique combination of a high-press...
