Decay of turbulence at high reynolds numbers.
Turbulent motions in a fluid decay at a certain rate once stirring has stopped. The role of the most basic parameter in fluid mechanics, the Reynolds number, in setting the decay rate is not generally known. This Letter concerns the high-Reynolds-number limit of the process. In a classical grid-turbulence wind-tunnel experiment that both reaches higher Reynolds numbers than ever before and cove...
متن کاملTurbulence research at large Reynolds numbers using high resolution DNS
Wind, water flowing in a river, ocean currents, and air motion behind a moving car are very familiar to us, and we know that they are always turbulent flows, because the velocity and pressure of the fluid fluctuate with time and position and the flow pattern is random. Humans recognized fluid motion in antiquity; they utilized this motion and recorded it in various ways, such as in paintings by...
متن کاملLagrangian acceleration measurements at large Reynolds numbers
We report experimental measurements of Lagrangian accelerations in a turbulent water flow between counter-rotating disks for Taylor–Reynolds numbers 900,Rl,2000. Particle tracks were recorded by imaging tracer particles onto a position sensitive photodiode, and Lagrangian information was obtained from fits to the position versus time data. Several challenges associated with extracting Lagrangia...
متن کاملVortex Tubes in Turbulence Velocity Fields at High Reynolds Numbers
The elementary structures of turbulence, i.e., vortex tubes, are studied using velocity data obtained in laboratory experiments for boundary layers and duct flows at microscale Reynolds numbers Reλ = 332–1934. While past experimental studies focused on intense vortex tubes, the present study focuses on all vortex tubes with various intensities. We obtain the mean velocity profile. The radius sc...
متن کاملEnhanced Mixing at Low Reynolds Numbers Through Elastic Turbulence
A generic nonlinear Maxwell model for the stress tensor in viscoelastic materials is studied under mixing scenarios in a three-dimensional steady lid-driven cavity flow. Resulting laminar and turbulent flow profiles are investigated to study their mixing efficiencies. Massless tracer particles and passive concentrations are included to show that the irregular spatio-temporal chaos, present in t...
