采用粒子图像测速技术(particle image velocimetry,PIV)在平板湍流边界层内开展实验研究,对比颗粒相及单相液体的平均速度剖面、湍流强度、雷诺应力等湍流统计量,分析颗粒在湍流边界层中的行为.利用空间多尺度局部平均涡量的概念提取壁湍流发卡涡展向涡头(顺向涡)并统计其数量规律,得到不同法向位置处顺向涡周围流向脉动速度及流线的空间拓扑结构,比较分析顺向涡发展程度及周围的湍流相干结构.结果发现:与清水工况相比,颗粒相湍流边界层的缓冲层变薄、对数律区下移,湍流强度得到增强,雷诺应力在对数律区有所增大;颗粒的流向脉动速度在展向涡周围的分布与清水工况不同,颗粒能够被流体展向涡周围的猝发过程有效传递;颗粒相的顺向涡涡核较大,且随着法向位置的升高逐渐发展完整,涡和条带在流向上拉伸得更长;同时发现在两种工况下,顺向涡的左下方始终存在一个逆向涡,颗粒相逆向涡的形成弱于单相流体;两种工况下的顺向涡数量均随着法向位置的升高而减少,最后逐渐趋于稳定.      

蜿蜒边界下平面流的线性流动稳定性

为便于数值分析,蜿蜒河流水动力和演变模型中一般隐性假设二次时均流-二次涡的关系与明渠流时均流-明渠湍流的关系相同,但由于高雷诺数下的DNS算力限制和实验尺度限制,这种隐含假设是否成立目前尚无相关湍流研究来支撑.文章试图通过分析明渠湍流和二次湍流发展初期的研究,侧面揭示其湍流结构的异同.通过对曲线正交坐标系下的平面二维NS方程使用双参数摄动的方法,建立了一种求解蜿蜒边界弱非线性层流的摄动解法,并推导得出一个适用于蜿蜒边界的EOS方程以及其特征值问题的解法.蜿蜒边界下弱非线性层流解为一系列蜿蜒谐波分量的叠加,其中线性部分使得两壁产生流速差,非线性部分随着雷诺数增大呈指数增长.水流的扰动增长率特征谱的第一模态与直道流相似,由3条曲线、4个波段合成,但其长波段和短波段的扰动流场与直道流不同,所有短波段的扰动流速近似于KH涡.蜿蜒边界对内部水流扰动有一定的选择性.偏角幅值越大扰动增长越快;蜿蜒波数的影响则为先增后减,有一个使扰动增长最快的蜿蜒波数.扰动流场由一个典型的TS波和一对波包形式的二次涡叠加而成,波包只有纵向流速分量,包络线由蜿蜒波数控制,波包内是与直道扰动波参数相同的TS波.     

How to estimate the low wavenumber turbulence frequency spectrum

 An estimate of the low wavenumber component of surface turbulence shear stress as a function of frequency has been obtained through measurements of the correlations of the longitudinal component of turbulence velocity made close to the surface at y ⁺=7. The data were acquired in a fully-developed turbulent pipe flow at a Reynolds number (based on centreline velocity and pipe diameter) of 268000, using two single hot-wire anemometer probes. A novel data analysis procedure has been introduced to establish the accuracy limits of the low wavenumber turbulence energy estimate for frequencies in the similarity regime of wall turbulence and the results are compared with other measurement techniques.

Rotation effects on a fully-developed turbulent pipe flow

A fully-developed turbulent pipe flow is allowed to pass through a rotating pipe section, whose axis of rotation coincides with the pipe axis. At the exit end of the rotating section, the flow passes into a stationary pipe. As a result of the relaxation of surface rotation, the turbulent flow near the pipe wall is affected by extra turbulence production created by the large circumferential shear strain set up by the rapid decrease of the rotational velocity to zero at the wall. However, the flow in the most part of the pipe is absent of this extra turbulence production because the circumferential strain is zero as a result of the solid-body rotation imparted to the flow by the rotating pipe section. The combined effect of these two phenomena on the flow is investigated in detail using hot-wire anemometry techniques. Both mean and turbulence fields are measured, together with the wall shear and the turbulent burst behavior at the wall. A number of experiments at different rotational speeds are carried out. Therefore, the effects of rotation on the behavior of wall shear, turbulent burst at the wall, turbulence production and the near-wall flow can be documented and analysed in detail.     

高频吹气扰动影响近壁区拟序结构统计特性的实验研究

利用恒温热线风速仪测量了零压力梯度平板上施加由合成射流激发的狭缝周期吹气扰动前后不同流向位置湍流边界层的速度信号, 展开高频吹气扰动影响近壁区湍流结构的统计特性研究. 研究结果表明:高频周期吹气扰动在狭缝下游产生明显的减阻效果. 扰动强度在湍流边界层内的发展沿流向呈衰减趋势, 其与湍流结构的相互作用也相应衰减. 然而, 因高频扰动产生运动的展向涡结构与猝发引起的结构变化尺度相当, 直接影响了近壁区拟序结构产生与发展的统计, 从而使得猝发检测方法VITA 表现出与低频或定常吹气减阻机理相异的现象.

An attempt to improve accuracy of higher‐order statistics and spectra in direct numerical simulation of incompressible wall turbulence by using the compact schemes for viscous terms

We attempt to improve accuracy in the high‐wavenumber region in DNS of incompressible wall turbulence such as found in fully developed turbulent channel flow. In particular, it is shown that the improvement of accuracy of viscous terms in the Navier–Stokes equations leads to the improvement of accuracy of higher‐order statistics and various spectra. It is emphasized that increase in required computational cost will not be crucial when incompressible flow is simulated, because the introduction of a higher‐order scheme into the viscous terms does not increase computational cost for solving the Poisson equation. We introduced fourth‐order and eighth‐order central compact schemes for discretizing the viscous terms in DNS of a fully developed turbulent channel flow. The results are compared with those using second‐order and fourth‐order central‐difference schemes applied to the viscous terms and those obtained by the spectral method. The results show that accuracy improvement of the viscous terms improve accuracy of higher‐order statistics (i.e., skewness and flatness factors of streamwise velocity fluctuation) and various spectra of velocity and pressure fluctuations in the high‐wavenumber region.

载荷的时变特征可能会对结构振动强度和能量作用机理产生重要影响,火/核电厂最重要的大型建筑结构均为典型的旋转薄壳结构(如冷却塔、烟囱等).为揭示后临界湍流区间内旋转薄壳结构的振动演化特征及其作用机制,实测了后临界雷诺数($Re\ge $3.5$\times $10$^{6}$)条件下8座典型旋转薄壳结构的振动响应.首先,在对实测响应进行降噪滤波处理后进行了不同时距的信号非平稳识别,基于非平稳分析模型对响应的时变均值和极值估计进行研究,并基于多尺度小波变换的演化谱方法开展了响应的频域演变特性研究.在此基础上,探讨了结构风振响应的共振分量占比及其效应,识别了结构的自振频率和阻尼比,并以结构基频为划分依据分别讨论了不同旋转薄壳结构的阻尼作用机制.研究结果表明:(1)旋转薄壳结构在后临界湍流区间内风致振动响应表现为强度非平稳、频率平稳的演化特性;(2)后临界湍流区间内的旋转薄壳结构的风振问题应区分准静力作用点与共振激发点分别进行研究,不同共振激发点的功率谱分布形式较为相近,而准静力作用点的功率谱分布规律差异较大;(3)共振激发点的振动能量分布呈现明显的分段趋势,基于本文大量实测分析结果回归得出适用于共振激发点的三阶段共振谱表达式;(4)借助本文提出的等效阻尼比概念拟合出此类结构的阻尼比预测公式,论证了目前工程中通用的5%阻尼比取值的不合理性.      

可压缩各向同性衰减湍流直接数值模拟研究

采用五阶有限差分WENO格式直接模拟了高初始湍流Mach数的可压缩均匀各向同性湍流,主要分析了湍流的统计特性 和压缩性的影响,包括能谱特征、激波串、耗散率、标度律等. 研究表明,湍动能主要来自于速度场螺旋分量的贡献;各向同性湍流的小尺度脉动对压缩性更为敏感,并且压缩性的增强加快了湍流大 尺度脉动向小尺度脉动的湍动能输运;随着湍流Mach数的升高,胀量(压缩)耗散率所占比率也显著增长. 标度律分析表明,强可压缩湍流的横向速度结构函数仍然具有扩展自相似性;当阶数较高(p ≥ 5)时,纵向速度结构函数的扩展自相似性则不再成立. 对于压缩性较弱的湍流,与不可压缩湍流一致,横向湍流脉动的间歇性要强于纵向湍流脉动;而对于强可压缩湍流,纵向湍流脉动的 间歇性要强于横向湍流脉动.     

Turbulent flow of quadrangle mode in interdisk midplane between two shrouded co-rotating disks

Particle image velocimetry (PIV) was employed to study the flow patterns, time-averaged velocity field, and turbulence properties of the flow in the interdisk midplane between two shrouded co-rotating disks at the interdisk spacing to disk radius ratio S = 0.1 and rotating Reynolds number Re = 2.25 × 10⁵. A quadrangle core flow structure rotating at a frequency 75% of the disks’ rotating frequency was observed. The flow in the region outside the quadrangle core flow structure consisted of four cellular flow structures. Five characteristic flow regions—the hub-influenced region, solid-body rotation region, buffer region, vortex region, and shroud-influenced region—were identified in the flow field. Circumferential and radial turbulence intensities, Reynolds stresses, turbulence kinetic energy, correlation coefficients, as well as the Lagrangian integral time and length scales of turbulent fluctuations were analyzed and presented. Features of the turbulence properties were found to be closely related to the rotation motion of the inner and outer characteristic flow structures. The circumferential components of the turbulence properties exhibited local minima in the buffer region and maxima in the solid-body rotation and vortex regions, while the radial components of the turbulence intensity, turbulent normal stress, and Lagrangian integral turbulence time scale exhibited maximum values in the buffer region and relatively low values in the regions near the hub and the shroud.     

Heat Transfer Influenced by Turbulent Airflow Inside an Axially Rotating Diffuser

The paper presents a study of heat transfer between the turbulent airflow and the inner wall surface of an axial diffuser rotating around its longitudinal axis. Heat transfer was assessed through the measurement of a time-dependent temperature field of the diffuser inner wall surface. Measurements of the instantaneous flow velocity components were performed by a laser–Doppler anemometry system, which delivered information on mean velocity components as well as on the turbulence intensity. A significant increase of all three mean velocity components was observed near the rotating diffuser wall in comparison with a non-rotating diffuser. Temperature field measurements were carried out by means of infrared thermography. The experiment showed a significant dependence of the temperature field on the turbulent flowfield induced by diffuser rotation. A strong influence of the flow separation and reattachment on the temperature distribution was observed, while rotation was found to suppress the occurrence of flow separation from the diffuser wall. Properties of the velocity field such as turbulent kinetic energy were directly coupled with the temperature distribution in order to gain the information on how to enhance or reduce heat transfer by changing the integral parameters of the diffuser (e.g. rotation frequency or amount of flow).     

Turbulence modeling for the axially rotating pipe from the viewpoint of analytical closures

A single-point model eddy viscosity model of rotation effects on the turbulent flow in an axially rotating pipe is developed based on two-point closure theories. Rotation is known to impede energy transfer in turbulence; this fact is reflected in the present model through a reduced eddy viscosity, leading to laminarization of the mean velocity profile and return to a laminar friction law in the rapid rotation limit. This model is compared with other proposals including linear redistribution effects through the rapid pressure-strain correlation, Richardson number modification of the eddy viscosity in a model of non-rotating turbulence, and the reduction of turbulence through the suppression of near-wall production mechanisms.

An Analysis of Turbulent Motions In and Around a Differentially Forced Density Interface

The Rapid-Distortion-Theory-based analysis proposed by Fernando and Hunt [1] is extended to study the nature of turbulence in and around a density interface sandwiched between turbulent layers with dissimilar properties. It is shown that interfacial motions consist of low-frequency, resonantly excited, nonlinear internal waves and high-frequency, linear internal waves driven by background turbulence. Based on the assumptions that (i) all resonant waves and some nonresonant waves having frequencies close to the resonant frequencies grow rapidly, break, and cause interfacial mixing, (ii) the spectral amplitude of the vertical velocity in the wave-breaking regime is constant, and (iii) kinetic energy is equipartitioned between linear and nonlinear breaking wave regimes, the r.m.s. vertical velocity at the interface and the turbulent kinetic energy flux into the interface are calculated. The migration velocity of the interface is calculated using the additional assumption that the buoyancy flux into a given turbulent layer is a fixed fraction of the turbulent kinetic energy flux supplied to the interface by the same layer. The calculations are found to be in good agreement with the entrainment data obtained in previous laboratory experiments in the parameter regime where the interface is dominated by internal wave dynamics.

Renormalization Group Model of Large-Scale Turbulence in Porous Media

Renormalization group methods are used to develop a macroscopic (large-scale) turbulence model for incompressible flow in porous media. The model accounts for the large-distance and large-time behavior of velocity correlations generated by the momentum equation for a randomly stirred, incompressible flow. Utilizing the renormalization procedure, the transport equations for the large-scale modes and expressions for effective transport coefficients are obtained. Expressions for renormalized turbulent viscosity, which accounts for the ultraviolet subrange of the turbulent kinetic energy spectrum, are also obtained.     

Dissipation rate correction methods

Dissipation rates of the turbulent kinetic energy and of the scalar variance are underestimated when the measurement resolution of the small scales of a turbulent flow field are insufficient. Results are presented of experiments conducted in a salt-stratified water tunnel (Schmidt number ∼700). Dissipation rates are determined to be underestimated, and thus correction techniques based on velocity structure functions and mixed-moment functions are proposed. Dissipation rates in laboratory experiments of shear-free, grid-generated turbulence are determined from balance calculations of the kinetic energy and scalar variance evolution equations. Comparisons between the structure function and balance estimates of dissipation show that the corrections are O(1) for the kinetic energy dissipation rate, and are O(100) for the scalar variance dissipation rate. This difference is due to the lack of resolution down to the Batchelor scales that is required for a high Schmidt number flow. Simple correction functions based on microscale Reynolds numbers are developed for both turbulent kinetic energy and scalar variance dissipation rates. Application of the technique to the results of laboratory experiments of density stratified turbulence, sheared turbulence, and sheared density stratified turbulence yields successful corrections. It is also demonstrated that the Karman–Howarth equality (and the analogous Yaglom equation) that relates second and third-order structure functions to dissipation rates is valid for both unstrained (decaying grid-generated turbulence) and density stratified and sheared turbulence at least up to the magnitudes of strains of the current experiments Nt∼10, St∼10, respectively. This is helpful for it allows the use of these equations in the analysis of turbulence even when the large scale background profiles of velocity and scalar are unknown.     

一种基于湍动能方程的转捩判定方法简

转捩现象是阻碍阻力高精度求解的主要问题之一. Menter 和Langtry 所提出的γ-θ转捩模型通过引入涡量雷诺数和间歇因子输运方程来驱动转捩,但是其中很多经验公式的理论立足点有待商榷. 驱使层流转变到湍流依赖的仍然是平均速度的一阶和二阶相关量,它们组合构成了湍动能方程的耗散尺度. 在湍动能方程中做合适的耗散平衡后,仅仅依靠湍动能方程可以有效地捕捉转捩现象. 采用自然转捩和旁路转捩测试算例进行了验证,结果证明该方法与试验值匹配较好,具有一定的工程实用价值.     

Statistical Structure at the Wall of the High Reynolds Number Turbulent Boundary Layer

The one and two-point statistical structure of very high Reynolds number turbulence in the surface layer near a rigid `wall' is analysed. The essential mechanisms for turbulent eddies impinging on the wall are studied using linearised rapid distortion theory, which show how the mean shear and blocking actions of the surface act first independently and then, over the life time of the eddy, interactively. Previous analytical results are reinterpreted and some new results are derived to show how the integral length scales, cross correlations and spectra of the different components of the turbulence are distorted depending on the form of the spectra of eddies above the surface layer and how they are related to motions of characteristic eddy structures near the surface. These results are applied to derive some quantitative and qualitative predictions in the surface layers (SL), where the eddies are affected by local shear dynamics, and in the `eddy surface layer' (ESL) where quasi independents loping elongated eddies interact directly with the wall, and where there is a large range of wave number within which the spectra of the horizontal velocity components are proportional to k ⁻¹. The longest eddies in the boundary layer occur near the wall. Field experiments agree with the theoretical model predictions for the quite different forms for the spectra, cospectra and cross correlations for the vertical and horizontal components of the velocity field. By showing that in SL the energy exchange between the large and small scale eddies is local(`staircase') energy cascade, whereas in ESL there is a direct nonlocal (`elevator-like')energy transfer to the small scales, it is shown why the thickness of the ESL increases over rougher surfaces and as the Reynolds number decreases.
