Unsteady Volumetric Entropy Generation Rate in Laminar Boundary Layers
The prediction of the entropy generation rate in laminar shear layers is treated as steady, even in the presence of high levels of free stream turbulence. Here we highlight the deficiencies of this approach by quantifying the magnitude of entropy generation rate fluctuations in the laminar boundary layer subjected to free stream turbulence. We find fluctuation levels in excess of 100% in the ne...
متن کاملEntropy Generation in Steady Laminar Boundary Layers with Pressure Gradients
In an earlier paper in Entropy [1] we hypothesized that the entropy generation rate is the driving force for boundary layer transition from laminar to turbulent flow. Subsequently, with our colleagues we have examined the prediction of entropy generation during such transitions [2,3]. We found that reasonable predictions for engineering purposes could be obtained for flows with negligible strea...
متن کاملUnsteady separation in vortex-induced boundary layers.
This paper provides a brief review of the analytical and numerical developments related to unsteady boundary-layer separation, in particular as it relates to vortex-induced flows, leading up to our present understanding of this important feature in high-Reynolds-number, surface-bounded flows in the presence of an adverse pressure gradient. In large part, vortex-induced separation has been the c...
متن کاملEntropy boundary layers
We consider the Euler system of compressible and entropic gaz dynamics in a bounded open domain of R with wall boundary condition. We prove the existence and the stability of families of solutions which correspond to a ground state plus a large entropy boundary layer. The ground state is a solution of the Euler system which satisfies some explicit additional conditions on the boundary. These co...
متن کاملBoundary layer control by a fish: Unsteady laminar boundary layers of rainbow trout swimming in turbulent flows
The boundary layers of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss [0.231±0.016 m total body length (L) (mean±s.d.); N=6], swimming at 1.6±0.09 L s-1 (N=6) in an experimental flow channel (Reynolds number, Re=4×105) with medium turbulence (5.6% intensity) were examined using the particle image velocimetry technique. The tangential flow velocity distributions in the pectoral and pelvic surface regions (a...
