Simulation of Low Reynolds Number Isotropic Turbulence Including the Passive Scalar
Full simulations of homogeneous isotropic turbulence containing a homogeneous passive scalar were made at low Reynolds numbers and various Prandtl numbers. The results show that the spectral behavior of the two fields are quite similar; both fields decay as power-law functions of time. However. the decay exponent is quite dependent on both the Reynolds and Prandtl numbers. The decay exponent of...
متن کاملDetermination of Statistical Characteristics of Isotropic Turbulence
Ultrasonic flow measurement technology has the potential to significantly improve flow measurement accuracy beyond that presently achieved. However, current applications fail to achieve theoretical accuracies because of turbulence effects on ultrasonic wave transit time. Herein, the ultrasonic flowmeter equation is reconsidered, where the effects of turbulent velocity and sound speed fluctuatio...
متن کاملHigh Resolution Simulations of Compressible Isotropic Turbulence
LA-UR-08-1690 30 Associate Directorate for Theory, Simulation, and Computation (ADTSC) LA-UR-09-01756 Understanding the nature of compressible turbulence is of fundamental importance in many applications ranging from astrophysics to combustion and aerospace engineering. Highly compressible turbulence is now thought to control star formation in dense molecular clouds [1]. The ability to paramete...
متن کاملStreamlines in stationary homogeneous isotropic turbulence and fractal-generated turbulence
We compare streamline statistics in stationary homogeneous isotropic turbulence and in turbulence generated by a fractal square grid. We examine streamline segments characterised by the velocity difference u D and the distance l between extremum points. We find close agreement between the stationary homogeneous isotropic turbulence and the decay region of the fractal-generated turbulence as wel...
متن کاملVelocity autocorrelations of decaying isotropic homogeneous turbulence
Velocity autocorrelations and the mean-square displacements of fluid particles are obtained for decaying, isotropic homogeneous turbulence by numerical simulation of the flow field, using 1283 and 256’ grids, and tracking several tens of thousands of fluid particles, using a third-order interpolation scheme. A self-preserving Lagrangian velocity autocorrelation coefficient is found in terms of ...
