Reynolds-number effects and anisotropy in transverse-jet mixing
Experiments are described which measured concentration fields in liquid-phase strong transverse jets over the Reynolds-number range 1.0× 10 Rej 20× 10. Laserinduced-fluorescence measurements were made of the jet-fluid-concentration fields at a jet-to-freestream velocity ratio of Vr =10. The concentration-field data for far-field (x/dj =50) slices of the jet show that turbulent mixing in the tra...
متن کاملReynolds number effects on mixing due to topological chaos.
Topological chaos has emerged as a powerful tool to investigate fluid mixing. While this theory can guarantee a lower bound on the stretching rate of certain material lines, it does not indicate what fraction of the fluid actually participates in this minimally mandated mixing. Indeed, the area in which effective mixing takes place depends on physical parameters such as the Reynolds number. To ...
متن کاملAnisotropy of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at low magnetic Reynolds number
Turbulent fluctuations in magnetohydrodynamic flows are known to become anisotropic under the action of a sufficiently strong magnetic field. We investigate this phenomenon in the case of low magnetic Reynolds number using direct numerical simulations and large eddy simulations of a forced flow in a periodic box. A series of simulations is performed with different strengths of the magnetic fiel...
متن کاملMixing by shear instability at high Reynolds number
[1] Shear instability is the dominant mechanism for converting fluid motion to mixing in the stratified ocean and atmosphere. The transition to turbulence has been well characterized in laboratory settings and numerical simulations at moderate Reynolds number—it involves “rolling up”, i.e., overturning of the density structure within the cores of the instabilities. In contrast, measurements in ...
متن کاملReynolds number effects in stratified turbulent wakes
We report large-eddy simulations of the turbulent wake of a towed-sphere of diameter D at speed U in a linearly stratified Boussinesq fluid with buoyancy frequency N . These simulations are performed using a spectral-multidomain-penalty-method-based incompressible Navier-Stokes solver for Re ≡ UD/ν ∈ {5 × 10, 10, 4 × 10} and Fr ≡ 2U/(ND) ∈ {4, 16, 64}. Increasingly richer turbulent fine structu...
