Measurements and Predictions of Turbulence Generation in Homogeneous Particle-laden Flows
Nomenclature The overall properties of turbulence c, = generated by uniform fluxes of monodisperse D = spherical particles moving through a uniform = flowing gas were studied both theoretically and t(k) = experimentally. Mean and fluctuating values, f = probability density functions and energy spectra of fr = streamwise and cross-stream velocities were measured within a counter-flowing particle...
متن کاملIntegral Solution for the Mean Flow Profiles of Turbulent Jets, Plumes, and Wakes
Integral methods are used to derive similarity solutions for several quantities of interest including the cross-stream velocity, Reynolds stress, the dominant turbulent kinetic energy production term, and eddy diffusivities of momentum and heat for axisymmetric and planar turbulent jets, plumes, and wakes. A universal constant is evaluated for axisymmetric and planar plumes. The cross-stream ve...
متن کاملMean Velocity and Static Pressure in a Sharp-edge Circular Nozzle Jet
An axisymmetric jet issued from a sharp edged circular convergent nozzle has been studied experimentally in the near field at Reynolds number 5.3x104 to search the saddle shape behavior of mean velocity and the role of mean static pressure in the jet flow. Due to the vena contracta effect the centerline mean velocity of the jet increases about 4.2% of its exit value and corresponding decrease ...
متن کاملStratified Wake Behind an Accelerating Hydrofoil
Wakes of towed and self-propelled bodies moving in stably stratified flows are of relevance to environmental and ocean engineering applications. To date, the majority of studies focused on the wakes of spheres and cylinders in stratified flows. Stable stratification modulates the wake dynamics, leading to a significantly different flow compared to non-stratified wakes. The wakes of spheres and ...
متن کاملLocal Stability Analysis and Eigenvalue Sensitivity of Reacting, Bluff Body Wakes
This paper presents an experimental and theoretical investigation of high Reynolds number, low density reacting wakes near a hydrodynamic Hopf bifurcation. This configuration is applicable to the wake flows that are commonly used to stabilize flames in high velocity flows. First, an experimental study is conducted to measure the limit cycle oscillation of this reacting bluff body wake. The expe...
