Spots and turbulent domains in a model of transitional plane Couette flow
Paul Manneville Laboratoire d’Hydrodynamique (LadHyX) École polytechnique, F-91128 Palaiseau, France e-mail: [email protected] Web page: http://www.ladhyx.polytechnique.fr/ ABSTRACT Introduction. The problem of the transition to turbulence is best understood in a globally supercritical context, e.g. for Rayleigh–Bénard convection. Difficulties arise for open flows that ar...
متن کاملα effect in a turbulent liquid-metal plane Couette flow.
We calculate the mean electromotive force in plane Couette flows of a nonrotating conducting fluid under the influence of a large-scale magnetic field for driven turbulence. A vertical stratification of the turbulence intensity results in an α effect owing to the presence of horizontal shear. Here we discuss the possibility of an experimental determination of the components of the α tensor usin...
متن کاملA Numerical Study of Turbulent Stably-Stratified Plane Couette Flow
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of stably-stratified, turbulent plane Couette flow are currently being performed on the XC-4000. The friction Reynolds number is kept approximately constant, Reτ 540 and the Richardson number Riw varies between 0 and 0.1. The flow is divided into two regions: the region close to the wall and the core region. The region close to the wall presents strong velocit...
متن کاملMean Flow of Turbulent - Laminar Patterns in Plane Couette Flow By DWIGHT BARKLEY
A turbulent-laminar banded pattern in plane Couette flow is studied numerically. This pattern is statistically steady, is oriented obliquely to the streamwise direction, and has a very large wavelength relative to the gap. The mean flow, averaged in time and in the homogeneous direction, is analysed. The flow in the quasi-laminar region is not the linear Couette profile, but results from a non-...
متن کاملUltimate turbulent Taylor-Couette flow.
The flow structure of strongly turbulent Taylor-Couette flow with Reynolds numbers up to Re(i)=2×10(6) of the inner cylinder is experimentally examined with high-speed particle image velocimetry (PIV). The wind Reynolds numbers Re(w) of the turbulent Taylor-vortex flow is found to scale as Re(w)∝Ta(1/2), exactly as predicted by Grossmann and Lohse [Phys. Fluids 23, 045108 (2011).] for the ultim...
