Basal entrainment by Newtonian gravity-driven flows

Christophe Ancey, Nicolas Andreini, Belinda Margaret Bates

Gravity-driven flows can erode the bed along which they descend and increase their mass by a factor of 10 or more. This process is called "basal entrainment." Although documented by field observations and laboratory experiments, it remains poorly understoo ...

Large-Reynolds-number asymptotics of the streamwise normal stress in zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers

Peter Monkewitz

A more poetic long title could be 'A voyage from the shifting grounds of existing data on zero-pressure-gradient (abbreviated ZPG) turbulent boundary layers (abbreviated TBLs) to infinite Reynolds number'. Aided by the requirement of consistency with the R ...

Large-eddy simulation of very-large-scale motions in atmospheric boundary-layer flows

Fernando Porté Agel, Jiannong Fang

In the last few decades, laboratory experiments and direct numerical simulations of turbulent boundary layers, performed at low to moderate Reynolds numbers, have found very-large-scale motions (VLSMs) in the logarithmic and outer regions. The size of VLSM ...

Boundary layer effects on the vortex shedding in a Donaldson-type hydrofoil

François Avellan, Mohamed Farhat, Amirreza Zobeiri, Eduard Egusquiza

Structure Interaction (FSI) phenomena is becoming a relevant study field for the design or revamping of hydropower plants. The generalized trend of increasing flow rates and reducing rotor blades/stay vanes thickness in order to improve the efficiency of t ...

Heat Transfer Augmentation in a Straight Channel via Two Oscillating Circular Cylinders

David Andrew Barry, Mohsen Cheraghi

We consider flow-through systems in which the characteristic length is limited such that turbulent flow is not reached even at high fluid velocities, i.e., the flow remains laminar. Inthese flow regimes, inducing circulation or vortices in the flow enhance ...

Comoving frames and symmetry-related motions in parallel shear flows

Tobias Klaus Kreilos

Parallel shear flows have continuous symmetries of translation in the downstream and spanwise directions. As a consequence, flow states that differ in their spanwise or downstream location but are otherwise identical are dynamically equivalent. In the case ...

Turbulent-laminar patterns in plane Poiseuille flow

Tobias Schneider, Tobias Klaus Kreilos

Turbulent-laminar banded patterns in plane Poiseuille flow are studied via direct numerical simulations in a tilted and translating computational domain using a parallel version of the pseudospectral code Channelflow. 3D visualizations via the streamwise v ...

Complexity of localised coherent structures in a boundary-layer flow

Tobias Klaus Kreilos

We study numerically transitional coherent structures in a boundary-layer flow with homogeneous suction at the wall (the so-called asymptotic suction boundary layer ASBL). The dynamics restricted to the laminar-turbulent separatrix is investigated in a spa ...

Forced reattachment in separated flows: a variational approach to recirculation length reduction

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo

Sensitivity analysis is used to design an open-loop control for separated flows. The length of the recirculation region

l_c

is expressed as a cost functional, and its sensitivity to actuation is derived analytically. This analysis allows to identify regi ...

Effect of Hydrofoil Trailing Edge Geometry on the Wake Dynamics

Amirreza Zobeiri

In the present study, the effect of a hydrofoil trailing edge shape on the wake dynamic and its interaction with the mechanical structure is investigated. This would help better describe the physical reasons for vibration reduction when using oblique and D ...
