Statistical analysis of coherent structures in transitional pipe flow.
Numerical and experimental studies of transitional pipe flow have shown the prevalence of coherent flow structures that are dominated by downstream vortices. They attract special attention because they contribute predominantly to the increase of the Reynolds stresses in turbulent flow. In the present study we introduce a convenient detector for these coherent states, calculate the fraction of t...

متن کاملExact Coherent Structures in Pipe Flow: Travelling Wave Solutions
Three-dimensional travelling wave solutions are found for pressure-driven fluid flow through a circular pipe. They consist of three well-defined flow features streamwise rolls and streaks which dominate and streamwise-dependent wavy structures. The travelling waves can be classified by the m-fold rotational symmetry they possess about the pipe axis with m = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 solutions identif...
متن کاملLifetime statistics in transitional pipe flow.
Several experimental and numerical studies have shown that turbulent motions in circular pipe flow near transitional Reynolds numbers may not persist forever, but may decay. We study the properties of these decaying states within direct numerical simulations for Reynolds numbers up to 2200 and in pipes with lengths equal to 5, 9, and 15 times the diameter. We show that the choice of the ensembl...
متن کاملManipulating Flow Structures in Turbulent Pipe Flow
Two different tools, the non-empirical resolvent analysis and the data-based dynamic mode decomposition, are employed to assess the changes induced by transpiration in the dynamics of a turbulent pipe flow. The focus is on very large-scale motions. Both analyses permit the observation of streamwise waviness in the large flow structures and how the transpiration can inhibit fluctuation in locali...
