متن کاملAnalysis of passive scalar advection in parallel shear flows: Sorting of modes at intermediate time scales
The time evolution of a passive scalar advected by parallel shear flows is studied for a class of rapidly varying initial data. Such situations are of practical importance in a wide range of applications from microfluidics to geophysics. In these contexts, it is well-known that the long-time evolution of the tracer concentration is governed by Taylor’s asymptotic theory of dispersion. In contra...
متن کاملDiffusion-affected passive scalar transport in an ellipsoidal vortex in a shear flow
By employing an analytical model for a constantvorticity distributed vortex, namely, the ellipsoidal vortex embedded in a constant buoyancy frequency shear flow, the problem of the passive scalar transport through the vortex’s boundary is addressed. Since the model’s governing equations do not allow such transition to occur, we implement a low-scale diffusion process into the vortex model. Taki...
متن کاملRelative dispersion of a passive scalar plume in turbulent shear flow.
Relative dispersion of a passive scalar plume was investigated in uniformly sheared, nearly homogeneous, turbulent flow with Reλ≈150 using planar laser-induced fluorescence. Mean concentration maps were determined both in the laboratory frame and in a frame attached to the instantaneous center of mass of the plume cross section. The distance-neighbor function had a shape that was compatible wit...
متن کاملPassive scalar mixing in a planar shear layer with laminar and turbulent inlet conditions
The effect of inlet conditions on the mixing of a passive scalar was investigated in a planar shear layer with inlet boundary layers that were laminar, tripped and naturally turbulent–transitional. Planar laser-induced fluorescence measurements of acetone were used to directly evaluate the shear layer structure, and were processed to determine probability density functions ~PDFs! of the mixture...
