A Review of Reynolds Stress Models for Turbulent Shear Flows
A detailed review of recent developments in Reynolds stress modeling for incompressible turbulent shear ows is provided. The mathematical foundations of both two-equation models and full second-order closures are explored in depth. It is shown how these models can be systematically derived for two-dimensional mean turbulent ows that are close to equilibrium. A variety of examples are provided t...
متن کاملReynolds Stress and Eddy Diffusivity of b-Plane Shear Flows
The Reynolds stress induced by anisotropically forcing an unbounded Couette flow, with uniform shear g, on a b plane, is calculated in conjunction with the eddy diffusivity of a coevolving passive tracer. The flow is damped by linear drag on a time scale m. The stochastic forcing is white noise in time and its spatial anisotropy is controlled by a parameter a that characterizes whether eddies a...
متن کاملExact Coherent Structures in Turbulent Shear Flows
Exact coherent structures are three-dimensional, nonlinear traveling wave solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations. These solutions are typically unstable from onset, yet they capture the basic statistical and structural features of low Reynolds number turbulent shear flows remarkably well. These exact coherent structures have now been found in all canonical shear flows: plane Couette, Poiseuil...
متن کاملDouble scaling and intermittency in shear dominated flows.
The nature of intermittency in shear dominated flows changes with respect to homogeneous and isotropic conditions since the process of energy transfer is affected by the turbulent kinetic energy production associated with the Reynolds stresses. For these flows, a new form of refined similarity law is able to describe the increased level of intermittency. Ideally a length scale associated with t...
متن کاملPolymer stress tensor in turbulent shear flows.
The interaction of polymers with turbulent shear flows is examined. We focus on the structure of the elastic stress tensor, which is proportional to the polymer conformation tensor. We examine this object in turbulent flows of increasing complexity. First is isotropic turbulence, then anisotropic (but homogenous) shear turbulence, and finally wall bounded turbulence. The main result of this pap...
