The measured quantities, i. e. the mean velocity, the turbulence intensity, the Reynolds stress and higher-order correlations of the fluctuating velocity in the self-preserving region of the above free shear flows are compared with the computational results based on Zhou's theory for the shear turbulence of in- compressible fluid. The experimental and computational results are in good agreement.展开更多

It is found from the comparisons that the LES with an eddy-viscosity subgrid scale （SGS） model over-predicts the space-time corre- lations than the DNS. The overpredictions are further quantified by the integral scales of directional correlations and convection velocities. A physical argument for the overpre- diction is provided that the eddy-viscosity SGS model alone does not includes the backscatter effects although it correctly represents the energy dissipations of SGS motions. This argument is confirmed by the recently developed elliptic model for space-time correlations in turbulent shear flows. It suggests that enstrophy is crucial to the LES prediction of spacetime correlations. The random forcing models and stochastic SGS models are proposed to overcome the overpredictions on space-time correlations.展开更多

The function of correlation moment between the different fluctuating velocity gradients of the flow was built firstly. Then the expres- sion, dependent on the characteristic length, time, velocity and a dimensionless parameter related to the effect of wall, of rotational dispersion coefficient is derived. The derived expression of rotational dispersion coefficient can be employed to the inhomogeneous and non-isotropic turbulent flows. Furthermore it can be expanded to three-dimensional turbulent flows and serves the theoretical basis for solving the turbulent flow of fiber suspension.展开更多

For comparison, the spherical cation exchange resins with a density of 1 44 g/cm\+3 and diameters ranging from 0 50—0 60 mm, 0 60—0 70 mm and 0 80—0 90 mm were selected as the experimental solid particles, and their moving velocities and trajectories in shear turbulent flows with the flow Reynolds number of 4710, 10240, 11900 and 20760 were investigated. The comparing analyses of the modeled results with the measured results have shown that the model developed in this paper can describe the motions of the particles in shear turbulent flow.展开更多

We here discuss the phase space structure of a 2D simplified model of the transition to turbulence and discuss optimal perturbations with respect to three criteria： energy of the initial condition, energy dissipation of the initial condition, and amplitude of noise in a stochastic transition. We find that the states triggering the transition are different in the three cases, but show the same scaling with Reynolds number.展开更多

The experiments were carried out in a square glass channel, which is 600cm long, with the cross section of 30×25cm^2. The flow velocity was varied from 2 to 40 cm/s. Uniform sands whose diameters were 0.0012cm, 0.2gcm, 0.385cm, 0.594cm and 0.896cm respectively were glued to the floor of the channel. The rough Reynolds number Re_Δ= U_*Δ/ν=0.04～73, where U_*is the shear velocity, Δ is the diame- ter of uniform sand, v is the kinematic viscosity coefficient. Hydrogen bubble technique for flow visualization and HWL-II hot-film anemometer for velocity mea- surement were used in the experiments.展开更多
