چکیده

We address scaling in inhomogeneous and anisotropic turbulent flows by decomposing structure functions into their irreducible representation of the SO(3) symmetry group which are designated by j, m indices. Employing simulations of channel flows with Rel ø 70 we demonstrate that different components characterized by different j display different scaling exponents, but for a given j these remain the same at different distances from the wall. The j ­ 0 exponent agrees extremely well with high Re measurements of the scaling exponents, demonstrating the vitality of the SO(3) decomposition. [S0031-9007(99)09384-9]

Thèse pour obtenir le titre de DOCTORAT de L ' UNIVERSITE DE LYON délivré par L ' ECOLE CENTRALE DE LYON par

The aim of the current work is to investigate a series of new subgrid models by employing the Kolmogorov equation of ltered quantities (KEF), which is an exact relation of turbulence in physical space. Di erent formulations of KEF are derived, including the forms in velocity eld (homogeneous isotropic turbulence, inhomogeneous anisotropic turbulence, homogeneous shear turbulence, homogeneous ro...

Three applications of scaling to inhomogeneous, anisotropic turbulence

The energy spectrum in three examples of inhomogeneous, anisotropic turbulence, namely, purely mechanical wall turbulence, the Bolgiano-Obukhov cascade and helical turbulence, is analyzed. As one could expect, simple dimensional reasoning leads to incorrect results and must be supplemented by informations on the dynamics. In the case of wall turbulence, an hypothesis of Kolmogorov cascade, star...

Universal Multifractal Properties of the Small Scale Intermittency in Anisotropic and Inhomogeneous Turbulence

The notion of self-similar energy cascades and multifractality has long since been connected with fully developed, homogeneous and isotropic turbulence. We introduce a number of amendments to the standard methods for analysing the multifractal properties of the energy dissipation field of a turbulent flow. We conjecture that the scaling assumption for the moments of the energy dissipation rate ...

Noise generated by a leading edge in anisotropic turbulence

The noise generated by the interaction of a turbulent inflow with the leading edge of a flat plate or an airfoil is a dominant sound source, for example in rotor-stator configurations of fans and air condition units. Aeroacoustic research of this noise source often includes performing wind tunnel experiments, where the required incident turbulence is generated by passive grids or meshes. In cer...

Experimental study and numerical simulation of three dimensional two phase impinging jet flow using anisotropic turbulence model

Hydrodynamic of a turbulent impinging jet on a flat plate has been studied experimentally and numerically. Experiments were conducted for the Reynolds number range of 72000 to 102000 and a fixed jet-to-plate dimensionless distance of H/d=3.5. Based on the experimental setup, a multi-phase numerical model was simulated to predict flow properties of impinging jets using two turbulent models. Mesh...
