Anisotropy of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at low magnetic Reynolds number
Turbulent fluctuations in magnetohydrodynamic flows are known to become anisotropic under the action of a sufficiently strong magnetic field. We investigate this phenomenon in the case of low magnetic Reynolds number using direct numerical simulations and large eddy simulations of a forced flow in a periodic box. A series of simulations is performed with different strengths of the magnetic fiel...
متن کاملTurbulence Modelling of Deep Dynamic Stall at Low Reynolds Number
The unsteady separated turbulent flow around an oscillating airfoil pitching in a sinusoidal pattern in the regime of low Reynolds number is investigated numerically employing the URANS approach with two advanced turbulence models, namely the RNG kmode and Transition SST model, and the DES approach based on the SST kmodel. A comparison with experimental data shows that the SST kbased D...
متن کاملMHD turbulence at high Reynolds number
Scientific context Magnetic fields are important dynamically in a variety of situations in geophysics and astrophysics. Numerous observations are appearing, e.g. thanks to remote sensing and in particular to the CLUSTER ensemble of 4 satellites, allowing for an estimation of fields and of their derivatives in the Solar Wind close environment. In the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) approximation valid...
متن کاملCan the History Force be Neglected for the Motion of Particles at High Subcritical Reynolds Number Range?
In the present work, the motion of metallic and plastic particles of 5 mm diameter falling in a quiescent fluid is investigated experimentally. The goal of this investigation is to examine the effect of history force acting on a particle in a range of Reynolds numbers between 1000 and 5000. The instantaneous position of the particle was recorded using a high - speed camera (500 to 1000 frames p...
متن کاملSimulation of Low Reynolds Number Isotropic Turbulence Including the Passive Scalar
Full simulations of homogeneous isotropic turbulence containing a homogeneous passive scalar were made at low Reynolds numbers and various Prandtl numbers. The results show that the spectral behavior of the two fields are quite similar; both fields decay as power-law functions of time. However. the decay exponent is quite dependent on both the Reynolds and Prandtl numbers. The decay exponent of...
