Herringbone streaks in Taylor-Couette turbulence.
نویسنده
چکیده
We study near-wall streaks that form herringbonelike patterns in Taylor-Couette turbulence and in counter-rotating Taylor-Couette turbulence through three-dimensional direct numerical simulations. The orientation, axial distribution, onset, and tilting angle of these streaks are characterized.

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent Taylor–Couette flow
We investigate the dynamical and statistical features of turbulent Taylor–Couette flow (for a radius ratio 0.5) through three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) at Reynolds numbers ranging from 1000 to 8000. We show that in three-dimensional space the Görtler vortices are randomly distributed in banded regions on the wall, concentrating at the outflow boundaries of Taylor vortex cel...
متن کاملEnergy transient growth in the Taylor–Couette problem
This work is devoted to the study of transient growth of perturbations in the Taylor–Couette problem due to linear mechanisms. The study is carried out for a particular small gap case and is mostly focused on the linearly stable regime of counter-rotation. The exploration covers a wide range of inner and outer angular speeds as well as axial and azimuthal modes. Significant transient growth is ...
متن کاملUnstable periodic motion in turbulent flows
Recently found unstable time-periodic solutions to the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation are reviewed to discuss their relevance to plane Couette turbulence and isotropic turbulence. It is shown that the periodic motion embedded in the Couette turbulence exhibits a regeneration cycle of near-wall coherent structures, which consists of formation and breakdown of streamwise vortices and low-v...
متن کاملTransition to turbulence in Taylor-Couette ferrofluidic flow
It is known that in classical fluids turbulence typically occurs at high Reynolds numbers. But can turbulence occur at low Reynolds numbers? Here we investigate the transition to turbulence in the classic Taylor-Couette system in which the rotating fluids are manufactured ferrofluids with magnetized nanoparticles embedded in liquid carriers. We find that, in the presence of a magnetic field tra...
متن کاملTransient turbulence in Taylor-Couette flow.
Recent studies have brought into question the view that at sufficiently high Reynolds number turbulence is an asymptotic state. We present direct observation of the decay of turbulent states in Taylor-Couette flow with lifetimes spanning five orders of magnitude. We also show that there is a regime where Taylor-Couette flow shares many of the decay characteristics observed in other shear flows,...
