Characteristics of a discharged liquid jet in near-nozzle are determined by the in-flow turbulences generated by the evolution of inflow vortices and cavitation. High-fidelity simulations have indicated that such physical processes can generate ultrafast turbulent fluctuations (in the range of MHz) originating from the nature of turbulence by the interaction between the large and small-scale turbulence in the flow. Detecting ultrafast turbulent oscillations while resolving small-scale turbulences in the optically dense near-nozzle liquid jet has not been observed through experimental methods so far. In this study, therefore, ultrafast x-ray phase-contrast imaging, which can provide a clear image in the near-field using a high-energy x-ray source, was applied to observe the fluctuation of flow velocity in the near-field to obtain the ultrafast turbulent oscillations at the discharged jet. To capture the ultrafast variance of flow velocity originating from the nature of turbulence, the high imaging frequency was applied up to 1.2 MHz. With the implemented methodology, turbulence intensity distributions of discharged liquid jets were measured for various injection pressures and nozzle geometries. Such turbulence intensity results were also correlated with the initial dispersion angle of the spray. In addition, the turbulence length scales, which can be detected through the current methodology, were estimated and discussed considering standard-length scales. The results showed that the current experimental method introduced in this study can provide important insights into the turbulence characteristics of spray by resolving Taylor scale turbulences and can provide valuable validation data and boundary conditions for reliable spray simulations.

ABSTRACT. The usage of so-called turbulence closure models within hydrodynamic circulation models comes from the need to adequately describe vertical mixing processes. Even among the classical turbulence models; that is, those based on the Reynolds decomposition technique (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes – RANS), there is a variety of approaches that can be followed for the modeling of turbulent flows (second moment) of momentum, heat, salinity, and other properties. Essentially, these approaches are divided into those which use the concept of turbulent viscosity/diffusivity in the modeling of the second moment, and those which do not use it. In this work we present and discuss the models that employ this concept, in which the viscosity can be considered constant or variable. In this latter scenario, besides those that use the concepts of mixture length, the models that use one or two differential transport equations for determining the viscosity are presented. The fact that two transport equations are used – one for the turbulent kinetic energy and the other for the turbulent length scale – make these latter ones the most complete turbulent closure models in this category. Keywords: turbulence modeling, turbulence models, first-order models, first-order turbulent closure. RESUMO. A descrição adequada dos processos de mistura vertical nos modelos de circulação hidrodinâmica é o objetivo dos chamados modelos de turbulência, os quais são acoplados aos primeiros. Mesmo entre os modelos clássicos de turbulência, isto é, aqueles que se baseiam na técnica de decomposição de Reynolds (Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes – RANS), existe uma variedade de abordagens que podem ser seguidas na modelagem dos fluxos turbulentos (segundos momentos) de momentum, calor, salinidade e outras propriedades. Fundamentalmente estas abordagens dividem-se entre aquelas que utilizam o conceito de viscosidade/ difusividade turbulenta na modelagem dos segundos momentos, e aquelas que não o utilizam. Nesse trabalho são apresentados e discutidos os modelos que empregam este conceito, onde a viscosidade pode ser considerada constante ou variável. No caso variável, além daqueles que utilizam o conceito de comprimento de mistura, são ainda apresentados os modelos que utilizam uma ou duas equações diferenciais de transporte para a determinação da viscosidade. O fato de empregar duas equações de transporte, uma para a energia cinética turbulenta e outra para a escala de comprimento turbulento, fazem destes últimos os mais completos modelos de fechamento turbulento desta categoria. Palavras-chave: modelagem da turbulência, modelos de turbulência, modelos de primeira ordem, fechamento turbulento de primeira orde

Le schéma de turbulence Toucans est utilisé dans la configuration opérationnelle Alaro du modèle Aladin depuis début 2015. Son développement a été initié, guidé et en grande partie conçu par Jean-François Geleyn. Ce développement a commencé avec le prédécesseur du schéma Toucans, le schéma « pseudo-pronostique » en énergie cinétique turbulente, lui-même basé sur l'ancien schéma de turbulence de Louis, mais étendu dans Toucans à un schéma pronostique. Le schéma Toucans a pour objectif de traiter de manière cohérente les fonctions qui dépendent de la stabilité verticale de l'atmosphère, de l'influence de l'humidité et des échelles de longueur de la turbulence (de mélange et de dissipation). De plus, de nouvelles caractéristiques ont été ajoutées : une représentation améliorée pour les stratifications très stables (absence de nombre de Richardson critique), une meilleure représentation de l'anisotropie, un paramétrage unifié de la turbulence et des nuages par l'ajout d'une deuxième énergie turbulente pronostique et la paramétrisation des moments du troisième ordre. The Toucans turbulence scheme is a turbulence scheme that is used in the operational Alaro configuration of the Aladin model since early 2015. Its development was initiated, guided and to a large extend authored by Jean-François Geleyn. The development started with the predecessor of the Toucans scheme, the "pseudo-prognostic" turbulent kinetic energy scheme which itself was built on the "Louis" turbulence scheme, but extended to a prognostic scheme. The Toucans scheme aims for a consistent treatment of stability dependency functions, influence of moisture, and turbulence length scales. Additionally, new features were added to the turbulence scheme: improved representation of turbulence in very stable stratification (absence of critical gradient Richardson number), better representation of anisotropy, unified parameterization of turbulence and clouds via addition of second prognostic turbulence energy, and parameterization of third order moments.

Texto completoResumen
Ghost imaging with partially coherent light through two kinds of atmospheric turbulences: monostatic turbulence and bistatic turbulence, is studied, both theoretically and experimentally. Based on the optical coherence theory and the extended Huygens–Fresnel integral, the analytical imaging formulae in two kinds of turbulence have been derived with the help of a tensor method. The visibility and quality of the ghost image in two different atmospheric turbulences are discussed in detail. Our results reveal that in bistatic turbulence, the visibility and quality of the image decrease with the increase of the turbulence strength, while in monostatic turbulence, the image quality remains invariant when turbulence strength changes in a certain range, only the visibility decreases with the increase of the strength of turbulence. Furthermore, we carry out experimental demonstration of lensless ghost imaging through monostatic and bistatic turbulences in the laboratory, respectively. The experiment results agree well with the theoretical predictions. Our results solve the controversy about the influence of atmospheric turbulence on ghost imaging.

Texto completoResumen
Direct numerical simulation data of bypass transition in flat-plate boundary layers are analysed to examine the characteristics of turbulence in the transitional regime. When intermittency is 50 % or less, the flow features a juxtaposition of turbulence spots surrounded by streaky laminar regions. Conditionally averaged turbulence statistics are evaluated within the spots, and are compared to standard time averaging in both the transition region and in fully turbulent boundary layers. The turbulent-conditioned root-mean-square levels of the streamwise velocity perturbations are notably elevated in the early transitional boundary layer, while the wall-normal and spanwise components are closer to the levels typical for fully turbulent flow. The analysis is also extended to include ensemble averaging of the spots. When the patches of turbulence are sufficiently large, they develop a core region with similar statistics to fully turbulent boundary layers. Within the tip and the wings of the spots, however, the Reynolds stresses and terms in the turbulence kinetic energy budget are elevated. The enhanced turbulence production in the transition zone, which exceeds the levels from fully turbulent boundary layers, contributes to the higher skin-friction coefficient in that region. Qualitatively, the same observations hold for different spot sizes and levels of free-stream turbulence, except for young spots which do not yet have a core region of developed turbulence.

Abstract. A new two-equation, closure-like turbulence model for stably stratified flows is introduced which uses the turbulent kinetic energy (K) and the turbulent enstrophy (Ω) as primary variables. It accounts for mean shear – and internal wave-driven mixing in the two limits of mean shear and no waves and waves but no mean shear, respectively. The traditional TKE balance is augmented by an explicit energy transfer from internal waves to turbulence. A modification of the Ω-equation accounts for the effect of the waves on the turbulence time and space scales. The latter is based on the assumption of a non-zero constant flux Richardson number in the limit of vanishing mean-flow shear when turbulence is produced exclusively by internal waves. The new model reproduces the wave-turbulence transition analyzed by D'Asaro and Lien (2000). At small energy density E of the internal wave field, the turbulent dissipation rate (ε) scales like ε~E2. This is what is observed in the deep sea. With increasing E, after the wave-turbulence transition has been passed, the scaling changes to ε~E1. This is observed, for example, in the swift tidal flow near a sill in Knight Inlet. The new model further exhibits a turbulent length scale proportional to the Ozmidov scale, as observed in the ocean, and predicts the ratio between the turbulent Thorpe and Ozmidov length scales well within the range observed in the ocean.

Abstract. This paper extends a turbulence closure-like model for stably stratified flows into a new dynamic domain in which turbulence is generated by internal gravity waves rather than mean shear. The model turbulent kinetic energy (TKE, K) balance, its first equation, incorporates a term for the energy transfer from internal waves to turbulence. This energy source is in addition to the traditional shear production. The second variable of the new two-equation model is the turbulent enstrophy (Ω). Compared to the traditional shear-only case, the Ω-equation is modified to account for the effect of the waves on the turbulence time and space scales. This modification is based on the assumption of a non-zero constant flux Richardson number in the limit of vanishing mean shear when turbulence is produced exclusively by internal waves. This paper is part 1 of a continuing theoretical development. It accounts for mean shear- and internal wave-driven mixing only in the two limits of mean shear and no waves and waves but no mean shear, respectively. The new model reproduces the wave-turbulence transition analyzed by D'Asaro and Lien (2000b). At small energy density E of the internal wave field, the turbulent dissipation rate (ε) scales like ε~E2. This is what is observed in the deep sea. With increasing E, after the wave-turbulence transition has been passed, the scaling changes to ε~E1. This is observed, for example, in the highly energetic tidal flow near a sill in Knight Inlet. The new model further exhibits a turbulent length scale proportional to the Ozmidov scale, as observed in the ocean, and predicts the ratio between the turbulent Thorpe and Ozmidov length scales well within the range observed in the ocean.

We present a review of quantum turbulence, that is, the turbulent motion of quantized vortex lines in superfluid helium. Our discussion concentrates on the turbulence produced by steady, uniform heat flow in a pipe, but touches on other turbulent flows as well. We have attempted to motivate the study of quantum turbulence and discuss briefly its connection with classical turbulence. We include background on the two-fluid model and mutual friction theory, examples of modern experimental techniques, and a brief survey of the phenomenology. We discuss the important recent insights that vortex dynamics has provided to the understanding of quantum turbulence, from simple scaling arguments to detailed numerical simulations. We conclude with a discussion of open questions in this field.

Abstract Zank et al. developed models describing the transport of low-frequency incompressible and nearly incompressible turbulence in inhomogeneous flows. The formalism was based on expressing the fluctuating variables in terms of the Elsässar variables and then taking “moments” subject to various closure hypotheses. The turbulence transport models are different according to whether the plasma beta regime is large, of order unity, or small. Here, we show explicitly that the three sets of turbulence transport models admit a conservation representation that resembles the well-known WKB transport equation for Alfvén wave energy density after introducing appropriate definitions of the “pressure” associated with the turbulent fluctuations. This includes introducing a distinct turbulent pressure tensor for 3D incompressible turbulence (the large plasma beta limit) and pressure tensors for quasi-2D and slab turbulence (the plasma beta order-unity or small regimes) that generalize the form of the WKB pressure tensor. Various limits of the different turbulent pressure tensors are discussed. However, the analogy between the conservation form of the turbulence transport models and the WKB model is not close for multiple reasons, including that the turbulence models express fully nonlinear physical processes unlike the strictly linear WKB description. The analysis presented here both serves as a check on the validity and correctness of the turbulence transport models and also provides greater transparency of the energy dissipation term and the “turbulent pressure” in our models, which is important for many practical applications.

The turbulence model fails in supercritical fluid-flow and heat transfer simulation, owing to the drastic change of thermal properties. The inappropriate buoyancy effect model and the improper turbulent Prandtl number model are several of these factors lead to the original low-Reynolds number turbulence model unable to predict the wall temperature for vertically heated tubes under the deteriorate heat transfer conditions. This paper proposed a simplified improved method to modify the turbulence model, using the generalized gradient diffusion hypothesis approximation model for the production term of the turbulent kinetic energy due to the buoyancy effect, using a turbulence Prandtl number model for the turbulent thermal diffusivity instead of the constant number. A better agreement was accomplished by the improved turbulence model compared with the experimental data. The main reason for the over-predicted wall temperature by the original turbulence model is the misuse of the buoyancy effect model. In the improved model, the production term of the turbulent kinetic energy is much higher than the results calculated by the original turbulence model, especially in the boundary-layer. A more accurate model for the production term of the turbulent kinetic energy is the main direction of further modification for the low Reynolds number turbulence model.

Abstract. The dissipation rates of the basic second-order moments are the key parameters playing a vital role in turbulence modelling and controlling turbulence energetics and spectra and turbulent fluxes of momentum and heat. In this paper, we use the results of direct numerical simulations (DNSs) to evaluate dissipation rates of the basic second-order moments and revise the energy and flux budget (EFB) turbulence closure theory for stably stratified turbulence. We delve into the theoretical implications of this approach and substantiate our closure hypotheses through DNS data. We also show why the concept of down-gradient turbulent transport becomes incomplete when applied to the vertical turbulent flux of potential temperature under stable stratification. We reveal essential feedback between the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), the vertical turbulent flux of buoyancy, and the turbulent potential energy (TPE), which is responsible for maintaining shear-produced stably stratified turbulence for any Richardson number.

Measurements from heated boundary layers along a concave-curved test wall subject to high (initially 8 percent) free-stream turbulence intensity and strong (K = (ν/U∞2 dU∞/dx, as high as 9 × 10−6) acceleration are presented and discussed. Conditions for the experiments were chosen to simulate those present on the downstream half of the pressure side of a gas turbine airfoil. Turbulence statistics, including the turbulent shear stress, the turbulent heat flux, and the turbulent Prandtl number are presented. The transition zone is of extended length in spite of the high free-stream turbulence level. Turbulence quantities are strongly suppressed below values in unaccelerated turbulent boundary layers. Turbulent transport quantities rise with the intermittency, as the boundary layer proceeds through transition. Octant analysis shows a similar eddy structure in the present flow as was observed in transitional flows under low free-stream turbulence conditions. To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first detailed documentation of a high-free-stream-turbulence boundary layer flow in such a strong acceleration field.

Three main physical processes are responsible for generation of turbulence affecting the aircraft: (1) hydrodynamic instability of the airflow stratified in wind and temperature (Kelvin-Helmholtz instability), which manifests itself in origination of turbulent patches called clear-air turbulence (CAT) in the free atmosphere; (2) breaking of large-amplitude mountain waves over the obstacles and at their leeward slopes, which causes so called orographic turbulence or mountain wave turbulence (MWT); (3) outflow of highly turbulent air from convective storms, which leads to the formation in their vicinity of turbulent zones of deep convection, that is, convectively induced turbulence (CIT). In the paper, the state of the art in studying and forecasting the turbulence generated by the mentioned physical processes is considered. The present short-range forecasting and nowcasting techniques are characterized by transition to the universal standard for intensity of aviation turbulence, that is, to the energy dissipation rate (EDR) defined in terms of the theory of homogeneous and isotropic turbulence, and by taking into account the informativity of empirical turbulence diagnostics. For the CIT nowcasting, special techniques for convection diagnosis are developed based on the satellites, radars, and lightning registers data.

In this paper we review certain classical and modern concepts pertinent for the theory of developed turbulent flows. We begin by introducing basic facts concerning the properties of the Navier-Stokes equation with the emphasis on invariant properties of the vorticity field. Then we discuss classical semiempirical approaches to developed turbulence which for a long time have constituted a basis for engineering solutions of turbulent flows problems. We do it for two examples, homogeneous isotropic turbulence and flat channel turbulent flow. Next we discuss the insufficiency of classical semi-empirical approaches. We show that intermittency is an intrinsic feature of all turbulent flows and hence it should be accounted for in any reasonable theoretical approach to turbulence. We argue that intermittency in physical space is in one to one correspondence with certain phase coherence of turbulence in an appropriate dual space, e.g. Fourier space for the case of homogeneous isotropic turbulence. In the same time the phase coherence has its origin in invariant topological properties of vortex lines in inviscid flows, modified by the presence of small molecular viscosity. This viewpoint is expounded again using the examples of homogeneous isotropic turbulence and channel flow turbulence. Finally we briefly discuss the significance of phase coherence and intermittency in turbulence for the fundamental engineering challenge of turbulence control.

Many phenomena depend on the features of the fine-scale structure of turbulence, including its intermittency. This article discusses the problem of the turbulent “shear” in biotechnology including the effect of the shear stress on particles (cells, flocs, cells immobilized on microcarriers). Traditionally, the effect of intermittency has not been taken into account in the shear problem and the theory of isotropic turbulence introduced by Kolmogorov (1941) based on average values of the rate of kinetic energy dissipation, velocity fluctuactions, rates of strain, turbulent stresses etc. has been applied. In this paper a multifractal formalism is employed to describe intermittency; the results of multifractal approach are then compared with predictions of other models of intermittent and non-intermittent turbulence. The multifractal model of intermittent turbulence has been used to derive equations describing flow-particle interactions, including: equations describing turbulent stresses acting upon particles in the inertial and viscous subranges of turbulence; mass transfer to small particles suspended in turbulent fluid; turbulent rupture of flocs; particles encounters in turbulent flow including the average number of collisions per unit time in the inertial and viscous subranges of turbulence and the severity of collisions; mechanical stress generated by bubble coalescence. Generally, the article shows how the traditional approach to the shear problem in turbulence, based on the Kolmogorov theory, can be extended by including the influence of intermittency. This review article includes 47 references.

Abstract This paper employs an MHD-PIC method to perform numerical simulations of magnetic-reconnection-driven turbulence and turbulent reconnection acceleration of particles. Focusing on the dynamics of the magnetic reconnection, the properties of self-driven turbulence, and the behavior of particle acceleration, we find the following: (1) When reaching a statistically steady state of the self-driven turbulence, the magnetic energy is almost released by 50%, while the kinetic energy of the fluid increases by no more than 15%. (2) The properties of reconnection-driven turbulence are more complex than the traditional turbulence driven by an external force. (3) The strong magnetic field tends to enhance the turbulent reconnection efficiency to accelerate particles more efficiently, resulting in a hard spectral energy distribution. Our study provides a particular perspective on understanding turbulence properties and turbulent-reconnection-accelerated particles.

AbstractNumerical simulation of monochromatic surface waves propagating over a turbulent field is conducted to reveal the mechanism of turbulence production by nonbreaking waves. The numerical model solves the primitive equations subject to the fully nonlinear boundary conditions on the exact water surface. The result predicts growth rates of turbulent kinetic energy consistent with previous measurements and modeling. It also validates the observed horizontal anisotropy of the near-surface turbulence that the spanwise turbulent intensity exceeds the streamwise component. Such a flow structure is found to be attributed to the formation of streamwise vortices near the water surface, which also induces elongated surface streaks. The averaged spacing between the streaks and the depth of the vortical cells approximates that of Langmuir turbulence. The strength of the vortices arising from the wave–turbulence interaction, however, is one order of magnitude less than that of Langmuir cells, which arises from the interaction between the surface waves and the turbulent shear flow. In contrast to Langmuir turbulence, production from the Stokes shear does not dominate the energetics budget in wave-induced turbulence. The dominant production is the advection of turbulence by the velocity straining of waves.

Abstract Upper-ocean turbulence results from a complex set of interactions between submesoscale turbulence and local boundary layer processes. The interaction between larger-scale currents and turbulent fluctuations is two-way: large-scale shearing motions generate turbulence, and the resulting coherent turbulent fluxes of momentum and buoyancy feed back onto the larger flow. Here we examine the evolution and role of turbulence in the intensification, instability, arrest, and decay (i.e., the life cycle) of a dense filament undergoing frontogenesis in the upper-ocean boundary layer, i.e., cold filament frontogenesis (CFF). This phenomenon is examined in large-eddy simulations (LES) with resolved turbulent motions in large horizontal domains using 109 grid points. The boundary layer turbulence is generated by surface buoyancy loss (cooling flux) and is allowed to freely interact with an initially imposed cold filament, and the evolution is followed through the frontal life cycle. Two control parameters are explored: the initial frontal strength M2 = ∂xb and the surface flux . The former is more consequent: initially weaker fronts sharpen more slowly and become arrested at a later time with a larger width. This reflects a competition between the frontogenetic rate induced by the secondary circulation associated with vertical momentum mixing by the turbulence and the instability rate for the along-filament shear flow. The frontal turbulence is energized by the shear production of the latter, is nonlocally transported away from the primary production zone at the filament centerline, and cascades to dissipation in a broad region surrounding the filament. The turbulent momentum fluxes arresting the frontogenesis are supported across a wide range of horizontal scales.

The aim of this paper is to study the influence of the environment on the link between intellectual capital and ambidextrous innovation. The environment has been considered taking into account the technological turbulence and the market turbulence. Using a questionnaire survey approach, data were obtained from 155 directors representing Tunisian SMEs. Two main theoretical implications were highlighted. The first is the extent of the intellectual capital contribution, with its human, organizational and relational components, to the reading of the ambidextrous innovation within the organization. The second is the moderating role of environmental turbulence. From a practical side, the study tried to reap the intellectual capital benefits and the intermediate effect of environmental turbulence to improve the manager’s yields in term of innovation. Interestingly, results show that human capital affects ambidextrous innovation. It influences radical innovation more than incremental innovation. Relationship capital promotes only incremental innovation. Organizational capital influences ambidextrous innovation. Its effect on incremental innovation is greater than on radical innovation. Both technological and market turbulences moderate negatively the human capital effect on incremental innovation. Counter to our expectations, however, environmental turbulence does not moderate the interrelationships selectively between relational capital, organizational capital and ambidextrous innovation. The present study is one of the few studies conducted in Tunisia investigating the field of intellectual capital and the first studying its effect on the ambidextrous innovation in a turbulent environment.

Abstract In three-dimensional hydrodynamic turbulence forced at large length scales, a constant energy flux Π u flows from large scales to intermediate scales, and then to small scales. It is well known that for multiscale energy injection and dissipation, the energy flux Π u varies with scales. In this review we describe this principle and show how this general framework is useful for describing a variety of turbulent phenomena. Compared to Kolmogorov’s spectrum, the energy spectrum steepens in turbulence involving quasi-static magnetofluid, Ekman friction, stable stratification, magnetohydrodynamics, and solution with dilute polymer. However, in turbulent thermal convection, in unstably stratified turbulence such as Rayleigh–Taylor turbulence, and in shear turbulence, the energy spectrum has an opposite behaviour due to an increase of energy flux with wavenumber. In addition, we briefly describe the role of variable energy flux in quantum turbulence, in binary-fluid turbulence including time-dependent Landau–Ginzburg and Cahn–Hillianrd equations, and in Euler turbulence. We also discuss energy transfers in anisotropic turbulence.

This work investigates the turbulent decaying behaviors downstream of a propeller in the core-flow region. Both axial and tangential velocity fluctuations behind a two-bladed propeller were measured using a stationary hot-wire probe. Unexpectedly, the complex near-wake core-flow of the propeller is found to show a similar decay characteristic of homogeneous turbulence, such as grid turbulence. The decay of turbulence intensity is found to be dominated by the level of periodic velocity fluctuations, showing a similar behavior of the homogenous and isotropic turbulence. This turbulent decaying behavior of the core-flow can be adopted for future turbulent modeling techniques.

Marine current turbine commercial prototypes have now been deployed and arrays of multiple turbines under design. The tidal flows in which they operate are highly turbulent, but the characteristics of the inflow turbulence have not being considered in present design methods. This work considers the effects of inflow turbulence on the wake behind an actuator disc representation of a marine current turbine. Different turbulence intensities and integral length scales were generated in a large eddy simulation using a gridInlet, which produces turbulence from a grid pattern on the inlet boundary. The results highlight the significance of turbulence on the wake profile, with a different flow regime occurring for the zero turbulence case. Increasing the turbulence intensity reduced the velocity deficit and shifted the maximum deficit closer to the turbine. Increasing the integral length scale increased the velocity deficit close to the turbine due to an increased production of turbulent energy. However, the wake recovery was increased due to the higher rate of turbulent mixing causing the wake to expand. The implication of this work is that marine current turbine arrays could be further optimized, increasing the energy yield of the array when the site-specific turbulence characteristics are considered.

AbstractThe Stokes drift of surface waves significantly modifies the upper-ocean turbulence because of the Craik–Leibovich vortex force (Langmuir turbulence). Under tropical cyclones the contribution of the surface waves varies significantly depending on complex wind and wave conditions. Therefore, turbulence closure models used in ocean models need to explicitly include the sea state–dependent impacts of the Langmuir turbulence. In this study, the K-profile parameterization (KPP) first-moment turbulence closure model is modified to include the explicit Langmuir turbulence effect, and its performance is tested against equivalent large-eddy simulation (LES) experiments under tropical cyclone conditions. First, the KPP model is retuned to reproduce LES results without Langmuir turbulence to eliminate implicit Langmuir turbulence effects included in the standard KPP model. Next, the Lagrangian currents are used in place of the Eulerian currents in the KPP equations that calculate the bulk Richardson number and the vertical turbulent momentum flux. Finally, an enhancement to the turbulent mixing is introduced as a function of the nondimensional turbulent Langmuir number. The retuned KPP, with the Lagrangian currents replacing the Eulerian currents and the turbulent mixing enhanced, significantly improves prediction of upper-ocean temperature and currents compared to the standard (unmodified) KPP model under tropical cyclones and shows improvements over the standard KPP at constant moderate winds (10 m s−1).

High freestream turbulence levels significantly alter the characteristics of turbulent boundary layers. Numerous studies have been conducted with freestreams having turbulence levels of 7 percent or less, but studies using turbulence levels greater than 10 percent have been essentially limited to the effects on wall shear stress and heat transfer. This paper presents measurements of the boundary layer statistics for the interaction between a turbulent boundary layer and a freestream with turbulence levels ranging from 10 to 20 percent. The boundary layer statistics reported in this paper include mean and rms velocities, velocity correlation coefficients, length scales, and power spectra. Although the freestream turbulent eddies penetrate into the boundary layer at high freestream turbulence levels, as shown through spectra and length scale measurements, the mean velocity profile still exhibits a log-linear region. Direct measurements of total shear stress (turbulent shear stress and viscous shear stress) confirm the validity of the log-law at high freestream turbulence levels. Velocity defects in the outer region of the boundary layer were significantly decreased resulting in negative wake parameters. Fluctuating rms velocities were only affected when the freestream turbulence levels exceeded the levels of the boundary layer generated rms velocities. Length scales and power spectra measurements showed large scale turbulent eddies penetrate to within y+ = 15 of the wall.

As highly turbulent flow passes through downstream airfoil passages in a gas turbine engine, it is subjected to a complex geometry designed to accelerate and turn the flow. This acceleration and streamline curvature subject the turbulent flow to high mean flow strains. This paper presents both experimental measurements and computational predictions for highly turbulent flow as it progresses through a passage of a gas turbine stator vane. Three-component velocity fields at the vane midspan were measured for inlet turbulence levels of 0.6%, 10%, and 19.5%. The turbulent kinetic energy increased through the passage by 130% for the 10% inlet turbulence and, because the dissipation rate was higher for the 19.5% inlet turbulence, the turbulent kinetic energy increased by only 31%. With a mean flow acceleration of five through the passage, the exiting local turbulence levels were 3% and 6% for the respective 10% and 19.5% inlet turbulence levels. Computational RANS predictions were compared with the measurements using four different turbulence models including the k-ε, Renormalization Group (RNG) k-ε, realizable k-ε, and Reynolds stress model. The results indicate that the predictions using the Reynolds stress model most closely agreed with the measurements as compared with the other turbulence models with better agreement for the 10% case than the 19.5% case.

In this paper, a systematic investigation of turbulence modulation by particles and its underlying physical mechanisms in decaying compressible isotropic turbulence is performed by using direct numerical simulations with the Eulerian–Lagrangian point-source approach. Particles interact with turbulence through two-way coupling and the initial turbulent Mach number is 1.2. Five simulations with different particle diameters (or initial Stokes numbers, $St_{0}$) are conducted while fixing both their volume fraction and particle densities. The underlying physical mechanisms responsible for turbulence modulation are analysed through investigating the particle motion in the different cases and the transport equations of turbulent kinetic energy, vorticity and dilatation, especially the two-way coupling terms. Our results show that microparticles ($St_{0}\leqslant 0.5$) augment turbulent kinetic energy and the rotational motion of fluid, critical particles ($St_{0}\approx 1.0$) enhance the rotational motion of fluid, and large particles ($St_{0}\geqslant 5.0$) attenuate turbulent kinetic energy and the rotational motion of fluid. The compressibility of the turbulence field is suppressed for all the cases, and the suppression is more significant if the Stokes number of particles is close to 1. The modifications of turbulent kinetic energy, the rotational motion and the compressibility are all related with the particle inertia and distributions, and the suppression of the compressibility is attributed to the preferential concentration and the inertia of particles.

Abstract Understanding the physical mechanism maintaining fluid turbulence remains a fundamental theoretical problem. The two-layer model is an analytically and computationally simple system in which the dynamics of turbulence can be conveniently studied; in this work, a maximally simplified model of the statistically steady turbulent state in this system is constructed to isolate and identify the essential mechanism of turbulence. In this minimally complex turbulence model the effects of nonlinearity are parameterized using an energetically consistent stochastic process that is white in both space and time, turbulent fluxes are obtained using a stochastic turbulence model (STM), and statistically steady turbulent states are identified using stochastic structural stability theory (SSST). These turbulent states are the fixed-point equilibria of the nonlinear SSST system. For parameter values typical of the midlatitude atmosphere, these equilibria predict the emergence of marginally stable eddy-driven baroclinic jets. The eddy variances and fluxes associated with these jets and the power-law scaling of eddy variances and fluxes are consistent with observations and simulations of baroclinic turbulence. This optimally simple model isolates the essential physics of baroclinic turbulence: maintenance of variance by transient perturbation growth, replenishment of the transiently growing subspace by nonlinear energetically conservative eddy–eddy scattering, and equilibration to a statistically steady state of marginal stability by a combination of nonlinear eddy-induced mean jet modification and eddy dissipation. These statistical equilibrium states provide a theory for the general circulation of baroclinically turbulent planetary atmospheres.

This paper presents two-dimensional LDA measurements of the convection of a wake through a low-pressure turbine cascade. Previous studies have shown the wake convection to be kinematic, but have not provided details of the turbulent field. The spatial resolution of these measurements has facilitated the calculation of the production of turbulent kinetic energy, and this has revealed a mechanism for turbulence production as the wake convects through the blade row. The measured ensemble-averaged velocity field confirmed the previously reported kinematics of wake convection while the measurements of the turbulence quantities showed the wake fluid to be characterized by elevated levels of turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and to have an anisotropic structure. Based on the measured mean and turbulence quantities, the production of turbulent kinetic energy was calculated. This highlighted a TKE production mechanism that resulted in increased levels of turbulence over the rear suction surface where boundary-layer transition occurs. The turbulence production mechanism within the blade row was also observed to produce more anisotropic turbulence. Production occurs when the principal stresses within the wake are aligned with the mean strains. This coincides with the maximum distortion of the wake within the blade passage and provides a mechanism for the production of turbulence outside of the boundary layer.

Abstract Velocity field in a nonprecipitating Cu under BOMEX conditions, simulated by SAM with 10-m resolution and spectral bin microphysics is separated into the convective part and the turbulent part, using a wavelet filtering. In Part II of the study properties of convective motions of this Cu were investigated. Here in Part III of the study, the parameters of cloud turbulence are calculated in the cloud updraft zone at different stages of cloud development. The main points of this study are (i) application of a fine-scale LES model of a single convective cloud allowed a direct estimation of turbulence parameters using the resolved flow in the cloud and (ii) the separation of the resolved flow into the turbulence flow and the nonturbulence flow allowed us to estimate different turbulent parameters with sufficient statistical accuracy. We calculated height and time dependences of the main turbulent parameters such as turbulence kinetic energy (TKE), spectra of TKE, dissipation rate, and the turbulent coefficient. It was found that the main source of turbulence in the cloud is buoyancy whose contribution is described by the buoyancy production term (BPT). The shear production term (SPT) increases with height and reaches its maximum near cloud top, and so does BPT. In agreement with the behavior of BPT and SPT, turbulence in the lower cloud part (below the inversion level) is weak and hardly affects the processes of mixing and entrainment. The fact that BPT is larger than SPT determines many properties of cloud turbulence. For instance, the turbulence is nonisotropic, so the vertical component of TKE is substantially larger than the horizontal components. Another consequence of the fact that BPT is larger than STP manifests itself in the finding that the turbulence spectrum largely obeys the −11/5 Bolgiano–Obukhov scaling. The classical Kolmogorov −5/3 scaling dominates for the low part of a cloud largely at the dissolving stage of cloud evolution. Using the spectra obtained we evaluated an “effective” dissipation rate which increases with height from nearly zero at cloud base up to 20 cm2 s−3 near cloud top. The coefficient of turbulent diffusion was found to increase with height and ranged from 5 m2 s−1 near cloud base to 25 m2 s−1 near cloud top. The possible role of turbulence in the process of lateral entrainment and mixing is discussed. Significance Statement 1) This study investigates the turbulent structure of Cu using a 10-m-resolution LES model with spectral bin microphysics, 2) the main source of turbulence is buoyancy, 3) turbulence in cumulus clouds (Cu) is nonisotropic, 4) turbulence reaches maximum intensity near cloud top, 5) turbulence spectrum obeys largely the −11/5 Bolgiano–Obukhov scaling, and 6) the main turbulent parameters are evaluated.

Explicit or implicit filtered representations of chaotic fields like spectral cut-offs or numerical discretizations are commonly used in the study of turbulence and particularly in the so-called large-eddy simulations. Peculiar to these representations is that they are produced by different filtering operators at different levels of resolution, and they can be hierarchically organized in terms of a characteristic parameter like a grid length or a spectral truncation mode. Unfortunately, in the case of a general implicit or explicit filtering operator the Reynolds rules of the mean are no longer valid, and the classical analysis of the turbulence in terms of mean values and fluctuations is not so simple.In this paper a new operatorial approach to the study of turbulence based on the general algebraic properties of the filtered representations of a turbulence field at different levels is presented. The main results of this analysis are the averaging invariance of the filtered Navier—Stokes equations in terms of the generalized central moments, and an algebraic identity that relates the turbulent stresses at different levels. The statistical approach uses the idea of a decomposition in mean values and fluctuations, and the original turbulent field is seen as the sum of different contributions. On the other hand this operatorial approach is based on the comparison of different representations of the turbulent field at different levels, and, in the opinion of the author, it is particularly fitted to study the similarity between the turbulence at different filtering levels. The best field of application of this approach is the numerical large-eddy simulation of turbulent flows where the large scale of the turbulent field is captured and the residual small scale is modelled. It is natural to define and to extract from the resolved field the resolved turbulence and to use the information that it contains to adapt the subgrid model to the real turbulent field. Following these ideas the application of this approach to the large-eddy simulation of the turbulent flow has been produced (Germano et al. 1991). It consists in a dynamic subgrid-scale eddy viscosity model that samples the resolved scale and uses this information to adjust locally the Smagorinsky constant to the local turbulence.

The effects of a magnetic field on core turbulence, mean-velocity boundary-layer profiles, turbulence-intensity boundary-layer profiles and turbulent spectral-energy distributions have been experimentally determined for combustion-driven magneto-hydrodynamic (MHD) flows. The turbulence suppression of the core was found to be similar to that of liquid-metal MHD flows, even though the turbulent structure was entirely different. The mean-velocity and turbulence-intensity boundary-layer profiles were affected much less than those of liquid-metal flows, primarily because the low-temperature thermal boundary layer reduced the electrical conductivity near the wall. No spectral dependence of turbulence suppression was observed in the core.

We studied the relationship between microscale turbulence and feeding success of larval radiated shanny (Ulvaria subbifurcata) in Conception Bay, Newfoundland, during a 3-week period in July-August 1995. Although previous studies had suggested that the relationship between turbulent velocity and larval feeding rates should be dome shaped, we found no evidence of such a functional relationship. Rather, differences in larval feeding success were evident only when days were grouped as either "high turbulence" or "low turbulence" on the basis of Richardson number. Feeding conditions (i.e., prey concentration and composition) were not significantly different on high- versus low-turbulence days. Nonetheless, U. subbifurcata larvae (3-14 mm standard length) contained significantly fewer items in their guts on high-turbulence days. These prey items, however, were (on average) significantly larger than those found in guts on low-turbulence days; the net result was that significantly greater volumes of food were found in larval guts on high-turbulence days. Turbulent velocity did not affect between-day variation in RNA:DNA ratios of the larvae. We suggest that what appears to be a shift in size selectivity by U. subbifurcata larvae under increased turbulence may result from larvae having a higher probability of capturing large prey under increasingly turbulent conditions.

Compressibility effects on the velocity derivative flatness [Formula: see text] are investigated by experiments with opposing arrays of piston-driven synthetic jet actuators (PSJAs) and direct numerical simulations (DNS) of statistically steady compressible isotropic turbulence and temporally evolving turbulent planar jets with subsonic or supersonic jet velocities. Experiments using particle image velocimetry show that nearly homogeneous isotropic turbulence is generated at the center of a closed box from interactions between supersonic synthetic jets. The dependencies of [Formula: see text] on the turbulent Reynolds number [Formula: see text] and the turbulent Mach number MT are examined both experimentally and using DNS. Previous studies of incompressible turbulence indicate a universal relationship between [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. However, both experiments and DNS confirm that [Formula: see text] increases relative to the incompressible turbulence via compressibility effects. Although [Formula: see text] tends to be larger with MT in each flow, the [Formula: see text] in the turbulent jets and the turbulence generated from PSJAs deviate from those in incompressible turbulence at lower MT compared with isotropic turbulence sustained by a solenoidal forcing. The PSJAs and supersonic planar jets generate strong pressure waves, and the wave propagation can cause an increased [Formula: see text], even at low MT. These results suggest that the compressibility effects on [Formula: see text] are not solely determined from a local value of MT and depend on the turbulence generation process.

Turbulent vortices with uneven refractive indices and sizes affect the transmission quality of laser beams in seawater, diminishing the performance of underwater wireless optical communication systems. Currently, the phase screen simulation model constrains the range of turbulent vortex scales that can be analyzed, and the mutual restrictions of the phase screen parameters are not suitable for use on large-scale turbulent vortices. Referring to the formation process of turbulent vortices based on Kolmogorov’s turbulence structure energy theory, this study abstractly models the process and simulates the ocean turbulence effect as a spherical bubble with turbulent refractive index fluctuations using the Monte Carlo method, which is verified by fitting the probability distribution function of the received light intensity. The influence of the turbulence bubble model’s parameters on light intensity undulation and logarithmic intensity variance, as well as the relationship between logarithmic intensity variance and the equivalent structural constant, are then studied. An equivalent structural constant model of ocean turbulence represented by the bubble model’s parameters is established, which link the theoretical values with simulation values of the transmission characteristics. The simulation results show that the spherical bubble model’s simulation of ocean turbulence is effective and accurate; therefore, the model can provide an effective Monte Carlo simulation method for analyzing the impact of ocean turbulence channel parameters of the large-scale turbulent vortices on wireless underwater optical transmission characteristics.

Intisari Turbulensi yang dialami oleh pesawat komersial rute Jakarta-Medan telah dilaporkan mengalami Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) di atas Sumatera Utara pada tanggal 24 Oktober 2017. Namun berdasarkan data citra satelit Himawari dari Badan Meteorologi, Klimatologi, dan Geofisika (BMKG) Indonesia menyebutkan bahwa di sekitar lokasi turbulensi terdapat awan kumulonimbus. Penelitian ini memanfaatkan model WRF-ARW dengan resolusi spasial dan temporal tinggi untuk mengetahui secara detail proses yang terjadi pada awan konvektif penyebab Near Cloud Turbulence (NCT). Turbulensi tersebut disebabkan oleh bilangan Richardson rendah yang terbentuk di wilayah udara jernih (clear air) yang berjarak 300-700 m di atas puncak awan dan diperkuat dengan adanya Turbulensi Energi Kinetik (TKE) mencapai 4,4 m2 / s2 dan geser angin vertikal (VWS) oleh arus keluar awan konvektif. Abstract Turbulence encountered by commercial aircraft Jakarta-Medan routes has been reported that experienced Clear Air Turbulence (CAT) over North Sumatra on October 24th, 2017. However, based on Himawari satellite imagery data produced by Agency for Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG), Indonesia stated that there was a cumulonimbus cloud around the turbulence location. This study utilizes WRF-ARW models with a high spatial and temporal resolution to find out in detail the processes that occur in convective clouds causing Near Cloud Turbulence (NCT). The turbulence was caused by a low Richardson number formed in the clear-air area, which has a distance of 300 - 700 m above the cloud top and reinforced by the existence of Turbulence Kinetic Energy (TKE) reaching 4,4 m2/s2 and vertical wind shear (VWS) by deep convection’s outflow.

Turbulent mixing of heat and momentum in the stably-stratified ocean interior occurs in discrete events driven by vertical variations of the horizontal velocity. Typically, these events have been modelled assuming an initially laminar stratified shear flow which develops wavelike instabilities, becomes fully turbulent, and then relaminarizes into a stable state. However, in the real ocean there is always some level of turbulence left over from previous events. Using direct numerical simulations, we show that the evolution of a stably-stratified shear layer may be significantly modified by pre-existing turbulence. The classical billow structure associated with Kelvin–Helmholtz instability is suppressed and eventually eliminated as the strength of the initial turbulence is increased. A corresponding energetics analysis shows that potential energy changes and dissipation of kinetic energy depend non-monotonically on initial turbulence strength, with the largest effects when initial turbulence is present but insufficient to prevent billow formation. The mixing efficiency decreases with increasing initial turbulence amplitude as the development of the Kelvin–Helmholtz billow, with its large pre-turbulent mixing efficiency, is arrested.

A turbulent jet bears diverse physical characteristics that have been unveiled yet. Of particular interest is to analyze the turbulent intensity, which has been a key factor to assess and determine turbulent jet performance since diffusive and mixing conditions are largely dependent on it. Multifractal measures are useful in terms of identifying characteristics of a physical quantity distributed over a spatial domain. This study examines the multifractal exponents of jet turbulence intensities obtained through numerical simulation. We acquired the turbulence intensities from numerical jet discharge experiments, where two types of nozzle geometry were tested based on a Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations. The [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text] model and [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text] model were used for turbulence closure models. The results showed that the RANS model successfully regenerates transversal velocity profile, which is almost identical to an analytical solution. The RANS model also shows the decay of turbulence intensity in the longitudinal direction but it depends on the outfall nozzle lengths. The result indicates the existence of a common multifractal spectrum for turbulence intensity obtained from numerical simulation. Although the transverse velocity profiles are similar for two different turbulence models, the minimum Lipschitz–Hölder exponent [Formula: see text] and entropy dimension [Formula: see text] are different. These results suggest that the multifractal exponents capture the difference in turbulence structures of hierarchical turbulence intensities produced by different turbulence models.

Abstract Study about the mechanical energy balance and the energy loss of 3-D turbulent flows in open-channels has its own complexities. The governing equation of the mechanical energy in turbulent flows has been previously known and includes turbulence parameters that their calculations or measurements are not easy. In this study, a form of the total mechanical energy equation that leads to a number of significant physical insights is analytically investigated, from which analytical relationships for the energy loss estimation in 3-D turbulent flows are defined. The effect of different turbulence parameters is reflected on the new relationships and analyzed by equalizations replacing unknown correlations with closure approximations using the numerical turbulence simulation. In order to investigate the application of the analytical relationships, numerical simulations are performed by using OpenFOAM software to solve the Navier-Stokes equations with the RSM turbulence model in open-channels with different geometries. Then, the contribution of the turbulence parameters to the total mechanical energy balance is evaluated in uniform and nonuniform turbulent flows and their difference is analyzed, that leads to identify the parameters affecting the friction and local losses. The results demonstrate that the magnitudes of the turbulent diffusion, the work done by the viscous stresses pertaining to the mean motion and the viscous diffusion of the turbulence energy are substantially smaller than the other terms of the total energy equation for turbulent flows in open-channels with different geometries, while the effect of the variations of the turbulence kinetic energy and the work done by the turbulence stresses, that has not been considered in the previous mechanical energy equations, is more important in complex flows. From a practical viewpoint, in order to study the details of the total mechanical energy balance and the energy loss in 3-D turbulent flows with the presence of the secondary currents, the proposed method can be useful.

The flow of fluid through a pipe has been instrumental in illuminating the subcritical route to turbulence typical of many wall-bounded shear flows. Especially important in this process are the turbulent–laminar fronts that separate the turbulent and laminar flow. Four years ago Michael Graham (Nature, vol. 526, 2015, p. 508) wrote a commentary entitled ‘Turbulence spreads like wildfire’, which is a picturesque but also accurate characterisation of the way turbulence spreads through laminar flow in a straight pipe. In this spirit, the recent article by Rinaldi et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 866, 2019, pp. 487–502) shows that turbulent wildfires are substantially tamed in bent pipes. These authors find that even at modest pipe curvature, the characteristic strong turbulent–laminar fronts of straight pipe flow vanish. As a result, the propagation of turbulent structures is modified and there are hints that the route to turbulence is fundamentally altered.

Studying the spatial distribution in coherent fields such as turbulent and turbulent-induced force ones is important to model and evaluate turbulent-induced forces and response of structures on the turbulent flows. Turbulent field-based coherent function is commonly used for the spatial distribution characteristic of induced forces in the frequency domain. This paper will focus to study spectral coherent structure of turbulence and forces in not only the frequency domain using conventional Fourier transform-based coherence, but also temporo-spectral coherent one in the time-frequency plane thanks to wavelet transform-based coherence for more understanding of the turbulence and force coherences and their spatial distributions. Effects of spanwise separations, bluff body flow and flow conditions on coherent structures of turbulence and induced pressure, comparison between turbulence and pressure coherences as well as intermittency of coherent structure in the time-frequency plane will be investigated here.

Abstract Turbulent plasma motion is common in the universe and invoked in solar flares to drive effective acceleration leading to high-energy electrons. Unresolved mass motions are frequently detected in flares from extreme ultraviolet (EUV) observations, which are often regarded as turbulence. However, how this plasma turbulence forms during the flare is still largely a mystery. Here we successfully reproduce observed turbulence in our 3D magnetohydrodynamic simulation where the magnetic reconnection process is included. The turbulence forms as a result of an intricate nonlinear interaction between the reconnection outflows and the magnetic arcades below the reconnection site, in which the shear-flow-driven Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI) plays a key role in generating turbulent vortices. The turbulence is produced above high-density flare loops and then propagates to chromospheric footpoints along the magnetic field as Alfvénic perturbations. High turbulent velocities above 200 km s−1 can be found around the termination shock, while the low atmosphere reaches turbulent velocities of 10 km s−1 at a layer where the number density is about 1011 cm−3. The turbulent region with maximum nonthermal velocity coincides with the region where the observed high-energy electrons are concentrated, demonstrating the potential role of turbulence in acceleration. Synthetic views in EUV and fitted Hinode-EUV Imaging Spectrometer spectra show excellent agreement with observational results. An energy analysis demonstrates that more than 10% of the reconnection-downflow kinetic energy can be converted to turbulent energy via KHI.

AbstractTwo new five-beam acoustic Doppler current profilers—the Nortek Signature1000 AD2CP and the Teledyne RDI Sentinel V50—are demonstrated to measure turbulence at two energetic tidal channels within Puget Sound, Washington. The quality of the raw data is tested by analyzing the turbulent kinetic energy frequency spectra, the turbulence spatial structure function, the shear in the profiles, and the covariance Reynolds stresses. The five-beam configuration allows for a direct estimation of the Reynolds stresses from along-beam velocity fluctuations. The Nortek’s low Doppler noise and high sampling frequency allow for the observation of the turbulent inertial subrange in both the frequency spectra and the turbulence structure function. The turbulence parameters obtained from the five-beam acoustic Doppler current profilers are validated with turbulence data from simultaneous measurements with acoustic Doppler velocimeters. These combined results are then used to assess a turbulent kinetic energy budget in which depth profiles of the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation and production rates are compared. The associated codes are publicly available on the MATLAB File Exchange website.

The study introduces Malikov's two-fluid methodology along with the RSM turbulence model for simulating turbulent heat transfer phenomena. It elucidates that temperature fluctuations within turbulent flows arise from temperature differentials between the respective fluids. Leveraging the two-fluid paradigm, the researchers develop a mathematical framework to characterize turbulent heat transfer dynamics. This resultant turbulence model is then applied to analyze heat propagation in turbulent flows around a flat plate and in scenarios involving submerged jets. To validate the model's efficacy, numerical outcomes are juxtaposed against established RSM turbulence models and experimental findings. The comparative analysis reveals that the two-fluid turbulent transport model aptly captures the thermodynamic behaviors inherent in turbulent flows with exceptional precision.

Hot-wire anemometry was employed to examine the laminar-to-turbulent transition of low-speed, two-dimensional boundary layers for two (moderate) levels of flow acceleration and various levels of grid-generated freestream turbulence. Flows with an adiabatic wall and with uniform-flux heat transfer were explored. Conditional discrimination techniques were employed to examine the zones of flow within the transitional region. This analysis demonstrated that as much as one-half of the streamwise-component unsteadiness, and much of the apparent anisotropy, observed near the wall was produced, not by turbulence, but by the steps in velocity between the turbulent and inter-turbulent zones of flow. Within the turbulent zones u′/v′ ratios were about equal to those expected for equilibrium boundary-layer turbulence. Near transition onset, however, the turbulence kinetic energy within the turbulent zones exceeded fully turbulent boundary-layer levels. Turbulent-zone power-spectral-density measurements indicate that the ratio of dissipation to production increased through transition. This suggests that the generation of the full equilibrium turbulent boundary-layer energy cascade required some time (distance) and may explain the very high TKE levels near onset.

Investigation of the turbulent swirl flow in the piping system is one of the most complex investigations in the field of energetics and turbulence. Axial fans in a pipe, without guide vanes, are widely used in practice and the problem of their duty point and energy efficiency is still extensively discussed. Analysis of the interaction between axial fans energy and construction parameters is one of the main topics in defining the fans energy efficiency potential. On one side, there is a three-dimensional velocity field in the wall-bounded flow with regions of great turbulence intensity. On the other side, there is a complex blade geometry, which generates the turbulent swirl flow. This paper presents research on the turbulent swirl flow, Rankine type, in an axially restricted system, using high-speed stereo particle image velocimetry (HSS PIV). Axial fan impeller, with outer diameter 0.399 m and nine twisted blades is the flow generator. The Reynolds number Re = 176,529 is achieved in the pipe. Reynolds stresses, statistical moments of higher order, and invariant maps are calculated based on the three component velocity fields. Here, intensive changes of all statistical parameters occur in radial and axial direction. In the flow region, four flow regions can be identified. Interaction of all these four flow regions produces extremely complex turbulent swirl flow, which is generated behind the axial fans. Determined invariant maps reveal turbulence structure. It is shown that the state of turbulence on the pipe axis is three-component isotropic, which is contrary to the case of axially unrestricted turbulent swirl flows. In the rest of the space, in the region up to r/ R = 0.52, the states of turbulence occur in the area in between the boundaries which designate axis-symmetric turbulence (contraction) and axis-symmetric turbulence (expansion), in the vicinity of the state of three-component isotropic turbulence.

The visible matter in the universe is turbulent and magnetized. Turbulence in galaxy clusters is produced by mergers and by jets of the central galaxies and believed responsible for the amplification of magnetic fields. We report on experiments looking at the collision of two laser-produced plasma clouds, mimicking, in the laboratory, a cluster merger event. By measuring the spectrum of the density fluctuations, we infer developed, Kolmogorov-like turbulence. From spectral line broadening, we estimate a level of turbulence consistent with turbulent heating balancing radiative cooling, as it likely does in galaxy clusters. We show that the magnetic field is amplified by turbulent motions, reaching a nonlinear regime that is a precursor to turbulent dynamo. Thus, our experiment provides a promising platform for understanding the structure of turbulence and the amplification of magnetic fields in the universe.

A detailed investigation of fully developed transient flow in a pipe has been undertaken using water as the working fluid. Linearly increasing or decreasing excursions of flow rate were imposed between steady initial and final values. A three-beam, two-component laser Doppler anemometer was used to make simultaneous measurements of either axial and radial, or axial and circumferential, components of local velocity. Values of ensemble-averaged mean velocity, root-mean-square velocity fluctuation and turbulent shear stress were found from the measurements.Being the first really detailed study of ramp-type transient turbulent flow, the present investigation has yielded new information and valuable insight into certain fundamental aspects of turbulence dynamics. Some striking features are evident in the response of the turbulence field to the imposed excursions of flow rate. Three different delays have been identified: a delay in the response of turbulence production; a delay in turbulence energy redistribution among its three components; and a delay associated with the propagation of turbulence radially. The last of these is the most pronounced under the conditions of the present study. A dimensionless delay parameter τ+[= √2τUτ0/D] is proposed to describe it. The first response of turbulence is found to occur in the region near the wall where turbulence production peaks. The axial component of turbulence responds earlier than the other two components and builds up faster. The response propagates towards the centre of the pipe through the action of turbulent diffusion at a speed which depends on the Reynolds number at the start of the excursion. In the core region, the three components of turbulence energy respond in a similar manner. Turbulence intensity is reduced in the case of accelerating flow and increased in decelerating flow. This is mainly as a result of the delayed response of turbulence. A dimensionless ramp rate parameter γ[= (dUb/dt) (1/Ub0)(D/Uτ0] is proposed, which determines the extent to which the turbulence energy differs from that of pseudo-steady flow as a result of the delay in the propagation of turbulence.
