investigation of turbulent kinetic energy redistribution in a channel flow using direct numerical simulation

نویسندگان
چکیده

in this study, the turbulent kinetic energy redistribution process is investigated. to this aim, the direct numerical simulation (dns) of incompressible flow of a newtonian fluid through a channel at a shear reynolds number of reτ = 180 is used to produce a flow data base. then, these data are statistically analyzed. the turbulent kinetic energy redistribution is studied using the pressure-strain-rate correlation tensor. pressure and strain-rate fluctuations as well as the correlation coefficient between them are analyzed. an equation for the strain-rate fluctuations is derived whose terms are calculated based on the simulation results. then, using a semi-analytical solution, the pressure-strain-rate correlation is computed and compared with the dns results. the results of this research quantitatively show that the pressure-strain-rate correlation transfers the kinetic energy that is produced in the stream wise component to the other two components.

Numerical simulation of pulsating turbulent channel flow

Direct and large-eddy simulations of the Navier–Stokes equations are used to study the pulsating flow in a channel. The cases examined span a wide range of frequencies of the driving pressure gradient, and encompass different physical behaviors, from the quasi-Stokes flow observed at high frequencies, to a quasisteady behavior at the lowest ones. The validity of the dynamic Smagorinsky model to...

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent flow over a compliant surface

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent channel flow over a compliant surface has been performed to evaluate the friction drag reduction effect. It is found that a slight drag reduction is observed over a compliant surface. This observation indicates that drag reduction is possible using a compliant surface that is deformed passively by wall pressure fluctuation. A small wall displacement and ...
