High resolution numerical simulations of lock-exchange gravity-driven flows
This dissertation focuses on the analysis of lock-exchange gravity-driven flows at high Grashof numbers using highly resolved numerical simulations and Large Eddy Simulation (LES) techniques. The present method uses a non-dissipative Navier-Stokes solver in which the sub-grid scale (SGS) viscosity and diffusivity are calculated dynamically. The use of LES allowed the study of these gravity curr...
متن کاملHigh performance Python for direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows
Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of the Navier Stokes equations is an invaluable research tool in fluid dynamics. Still, there are few publicly available research codes and, due to the heavy number crunching implied, available codes are usually written in low-level languages such as C/C++ or Fortran. In this paper we describe a pure scientific Python pseudo-spectral DNS code that nearly match...
متن کاملMethods for multiphase flows with high density ratio
Two-phase flows with high density ratio and high shear are known to be challenging to simulate. In this work, two strategies for improving the robustness of high density ratio two-phase flow simulations are investigated. The first method, based on Rudman’s work with the volume of fluid method (Rudman 1998), aims at improving the consistency between interface and momentum transport by using the ...
متن کاملLarge numerical simulations of turbulent rotating flows
Scientific context Rotation, as measured by the Rossby number (the ratio of the rotation period to the eddy turn over time) is present in astroand geophysics. For example, the high Reynolds number large scales of atmospheric and oceanic flows are affected by the rotation of the Earth; the Rossby number Ro = U0/[L0Ω] for mid-latitude atmospheric synoptic scales is Ro ≈ 0.1 whereas in the solar c...
متن کاملReynolds number dependence of mixing in a lock-exchange system from direct numerical and large eddy simulations
Turbulent mixing of water masses of different temperatures and salinities is an important process for both coastal and large-scale ocean circulation. It is, however, difficult to capture computationally. One of the reasons is that mixing in the ocean occurs at a wide range of complexity, with the Reynolds number reaching Re 1⁄4 Oð10Þ, or even higher. In this study, we continue to investigate wh...
