Experimental and theoretical progress in pipe flow transition.
There have been many investigations of the stability of Hagen-Poiseuille flow in the 125 years since Osborne Reynolds' famous experiments on the transition to turbulence in a pipe, and yet the pipe problem remains the focus of attention of much research. Here, we discuss recent results from experimental and numerical investigations obtained in this new century. Progress has been made on three f...
متن کاملTurbulence Transition in Pipe Flow
Pipe flow is a prominent example among the shear flows that undergo transition to turbulence without mediation by a linear instability of the laminar profile. Experiments on pipe flow, as well as plane Couette and plane Poiseuille flow, show that triggering turbulence depends sensitively on initial conditions, that between the laminar and the turbulent states there exists no intermediate state ...
متن کاملTransition in localized pipe flow turbulence.
Direct numerical simulation of transitional pipe flow is carried out in a long computational domain in order to characterize the dynamics within the saddle region of phase space that separates laminar flow from turbulent intermittency. For Reynolds numbers ranging from Re=1800 to 2800, a shoot and bisection method is used to compute critical trajectories. The chaotic saddle or edge state approa...
متن کاملTransition in Pipe Flow Nonlinear Mechanisms
Pipe flow is perhaps the classic problem of fluid dynamics. Its simplicity of form lends itself admirably to experimenters but conceals a wealth of unanswered questions. Despite Reynolds’ conducting his seminal experiments over a century ago, few formal results are known for this flow. Over the years many simplifications have been considered, including linearisation, azimuthal invariance and st...
متن کاملCritical threshold in pipe flow transition.
This study provides a numerical characterization of the basin of attraction of the laminar Hagen-Poiseuille flow by measuring the minimal amplitude of a perturbation required to trigger transition. For pressure-driven pipe flow, the analysis presented here covers autonomous and impulsive scenarios where either the flow is perturbed with an initial disturbance with a well-defined norm or perturb...
