Non-equilibrium scaling laws in axisymmetric turbulent wakes
We present a combined Direct Numerical Simulation and Hot Wire Anemometry study of an axisymmetric turbulent wake. The data lead to a revised theory of axisymmetric turbulent wakes which relies on the mean streamwise momentum and turbulent kinetic energy equations, self-similarity of the mean flow, turbulent kinetic energy, Reynolds shear stress and turbulent dissipation profiles, non-equilibri...
متن کاملAxisymmetric turbulent wakes with new nonequilibrium similarity scalings.
The recently discovered nonequilibrium turbulence dissipation law implies the existence of axisymmetric turbulent wake regions where the mean flow velocity deficit decays as the inverse of the distance from the wake-generating body and the wake width grows as the square root of that distance. This behavior is different from any documented boundary-free turbulent shear flow to date. Its existenc...
متن کاملScaling laws in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection under different geometry
A systematic study of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection is carried out in two horizontal cylindrical cells of different lengths filled with water. Global heat transport and local temperature and velocity measurements are made over varying Rayleigh numbers Ra. The scaling behavior of the measured Nusselt number Nu(Ra) and the Reynolds number Re(Ra) associated with the large-scale circulation ...
متن کاملNonequilibrium scalings of turbulent wakes
The most basic and arguably most important property that any theory or model of turbulence must predict is the mean flow profile. A model or theory of turbulence which can do this for a wide range of turbulent flows on the basis of only few fundamental and robust assumptions is still lacking. However, in the case of canonical boundary-free turbulent shear flows such as turbulent jets, wakes, an...
متن کاملTurbulent wakes of fractal objects.
Turbulence of a windtunnel flow is stirred using objects that have a fractal structure. The strong turbulent wakes resulting from three such objects which have different fractal dimensions are probed using multiprobe hot-wire anemometry in various configurations. Statistical turbulent quantities are studied within inertial and dissipative range scales in an attempt to relate changes in their se...
