Pressure pulsations on the surface of a sphere in a subsonic stream

Many data are available on the drag C_x and the distribution of the static pressure over the surface of a sphere [1, 2]. However, there are virtually no data on pulsations of the pressure over the surface of a sphere. In the present paper, the results are given of an investigation of the total and spectral levels of the pressure pulsations at different points of the surface of a sphere at M 0.5–1.0 and Re (1.7–2.7)·.10⁶. It was found that the strongest pressure pulsations occur on the side in the region of the angle 90°. In this region at M 0.6–0.8 the relative total level o/q where q is the velocity head in the oncoming stream, reaches values 0.18–0.22. It was established that at M = 0.7–0.9 narrow-band maxima occur in the spectra of the pressure pulsations at frequencies Sh fD/V = 0.2–0.3. Data are also presented on the pulsations of the base pressure behind a spherical segment with short cylindrical and conical trailing edges.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 5, pp. 164–168, September–October, 1981.     

Combined effect of longitudinal riblets and LEBU-devices on turbulent friction on a plate

The possibility of reducing turbulent friction with the help of large-eddy-breakup devices (LEBUs) and riblets is studied experimentally. The tests were conducted in a low-turbulence wind tunnel on a flat plate for 2·10⁶ Re 7·10⁶. The local friction coefficient was measured using internal strain-gauge balances, and the total drag was estimated by the momentum-transfer method. It is shown that a combination of LEBUs and riblets makes it possible to reduce the total turbulent friction drag of a flat plate 1800 mm long by 16%. The effects of the length of a ribbed surface on the efficiency of friction reduction and of LEBUs and riblets on the structure of a turbulent boundary layer are analyzed.Translated from Izvestiya Rossiiskoi Akademii Nauk, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 3, pp. 39–46, May–June, 1995.     

The rheology of polymeric liquid crystals

The molecular theory of Doi has been used as a framework to characterize the rheological behavior of polymeric liquid crystals at the low deformation rates for which it was derived, and an appropriate extension for high deformation rates is presented. The essential physics behind the Doi formulation has, however, been retained in its entirety. The resulting four-parameter equation enables prediction of the shearing behavior at low and high deformation rates, of the stress in extensional flows, of the isotropic-anisotropic phase transition and of the molecular orientation. Extensional data over nearly three decades of elongation rate (10^–2–10¹) and shearing data over six decades of shear rate (10^–2–10⁴) have been correlated using this analysis. Experimental data are presented for both homogeneous and inhomogeneous shearing stress fields. For the latter, a 20-fold range of capillary tube diameters has been employed and no effects of system geometry or the inhomogeneity of the flow-field are observed. Such an independence of the rheological properties from these effects does not occur for low molecular weight liquid crystals and this is, perhaps, the first time this has been reported for polymeric lyotropic liquid crystals; the physical basis for this major difference is discussed briefly.

Flow in porous media I: A theoretical derivation of Darcy's law

Stokes flow through a rigid porous medium is analyzed in terms of the method of volume averaging. The traditional averaging procedure leads to an equation of motion and a continuity equation expressed in terms of the volume-averaged pressure and velocity. The equation of motion contains integrals involving spatial deviations of the pressure and velocity, the Brinkman correction, and other lower-order terms. The analysis clearly indicates why the Brinkman correction should not be used to accommodate ano slip condition at an interface between a porous medium and a bounding solid surface.The presence of spatial deviations of the pressure and velocity in the volume-averaged equations of motion gives rise to aclosure problem, and representations for the spatial deviations are derived that lead to Darcy's law. The theoretical development is not restricted to either homogeneous or spatially periodic porous media; however, the problem ofabrupt changes in the structure of a porous medium is not considered.Roman Letters A interfacial area of the - interface contained within the macroscopic system, m² - A _e area of entrances and exits for the -phase contained within the macroscopic system, m² - A interfacial area of the - interface contained within the averaging volume, m² - A ^* interfacial area of the - interface contained within a unit cell, m² - Ae area of entrances and exits for the -phase contained within a unit cell, m² - B second order tensor used to represent the velocity deviation (see Equation (3.30)) - b vector used to represent the pressure deviation (see Equation (3.31)), m^–1 - d distance between two points at which the pressure is measured, m - g gravity vector, m/s² - K Darcy's law permeability tensor, m² - L characteristic length scale for volume averaged quantities, m - characteristic length scale for the -phase (see Figure 2), m - characteristic length scale for the -phase (see Figure 2), m - n unit normal vector pointing from the -phase toward the -phase (n =–n ) - n _e unit normal vector for the entrances and exits of the -phase contained within a unit cell - p pressure in the -phase, N/m² - p intrinsic phase average pressure for the -phase, N/m² - p –p , spatial deviation of the pressure in the -phase, N/m² - r ₀ radius of the averaging volume and radius of a capillary tube, m - v velocity vector for the -phase, m/s - v phase average velocity vector for the -phase, m/s - v intrinsic phase average velocity vector for the -phase, m/s - v –v , spatial deviation of the velocity vector for the -phase, m/s - V averaging volume, m³ - V volume of the -phase contained within the averaging volume, m³ Greek Letters V/V, volume fraction of the -phase - mass density of the -phase, kg/m³ - viscosity of the -phase, Nt/m² - arbitrary function used in the representation of the velocity deviation (see Equations (3.11) and (B1)), m/s - arbitrary function used in the representation of the pressure deviation (see Equations (3.12) and (B2)), s^–1     

Peristaltic pumping of a second-order fluid in a planar channel

The peristaltic motion of a non-Newtonian fluid represented by the constitutive equation for a second-order fluid was studied for the case of a planar channel with harmonically undulating extensible walls. A perturbation series for the parameter ( half-width of channel/wave length) obtained explicit terms of 0(²), 0(²Re²) and 0(₁Re²) respectively representing curvature, inertia and the non-Newtonian character of the fluid. Numerical computations were performed and compared to the perturbation analysis in order to determine the range of validity of the terms.Presented at the second conference Recent Developments in Structured Continua, May 23–25, 1990, in Sherbrooke, Québec, Canada     

On the Possibility of Delaying Laminar-Turbulent Transition at High Reynolds Numbers by the Optimal Choice of Body Forces

The possibility of delaying laminar-turbulent transition on a flat plate in a longitudinal viscous incompressible flow by the optimal choice of the body force distribution in the boundary layer is discussed. It is shown that even for very high Reynolds numbers, Re 10¹⁰, a body force distribution can be found such that the corresponding boundary layer flow is absolutely stable, while the total drag of the body is less than that in the absence of body force action on the flow.

Heat transfer to an isothermal flat plate in turbulent flow of a liquid over a wide range of prandtl and reynolds numbers

The study of heat transfer in turbulent flow over a flat plate is very important, not only because this situation frequently arises in practice, but also in that data for an isothermal flat plate are used to calculate heat transfer in more complex cases. In particular, such data are necessary when one uses the limiting relative laws which allow calculation of the effect of compressibility, pressure gradient, blowing, and other perturbing factors [1]. Most papers dealing with heat transfer for an isothermal flat plate refer to comparatively low Re values, when the velocity distribution in the boundary layer over almost its entire thickness can be described by the universal law of the wall. However, as Re increases there is an increasing layer adjacent to the outer boundary in which the velocity distribution cannot be described by the law of the wall, and therefore the results obtained for low Re are inapplicable. In the present paper coefficients of heat transfer from a turbulent flow to an isothermal flat plate have been obtained by numerical integration of the thermal boundary-layer equations over a wide range of the parameters 3 · 10⁵ Re 2.5·10¹², 10² Pr 10³.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 4, pp. 94–100, July–August, 1976.     

Numerical analysis of simulation accuracy for hypersonic heat transfer in subsonic jets of dissociated nitrogen

One-dimensional problems of the flow in a boundary layer of finite thickness on the end face of a model and in a thin viscous shock layer on a sphere are solved numerically for three regimes of subsonic flow past a model with a flat blunt face exposed to subsonic jets of pure dissociated nitrogen in an induction plasmatron [1] (for stagnation pressures of (10⁴–3·10⁴) N/m² and an enthalpy of 2.1·10⁷ m²/sec²) and three regimes of hypersonic flow past spheres with parameters related by the local heat transfer simulation conditions [2, 3]. It is established that given equality of the stagnation pressures, enthalpies and velocity gradients on the outer edges of the boundary layers at the stagnation points on the sphere and the model, for a model of radius R_m=1.5·10^–2 m in a subsonic jet the accuracy of reproduction of the heat transfer to the highly catalytic surface of a sphere in a uniform hypersonic flow is about 3%. For surfaces with a low level of catalytic activity the accuracy of simulation of the nonequilibrium heat transfer is determined by the deviations of the temperatures at the outer edges of the boundary layers on the body and the model. For this case the simulation conditions have the form: dU_e/dx=idem, p₀=idem, T_e=idem. At stagnation pressuresP ₀2·10⁴ N/m² irrespective of the catalycity of the surface the heat flux at the stagnation point and the structure of the boundary layer near the axis of symmetry of models with a flat blunt face of radius R_m1.5·10^–2 m exposed to subsonic nitrogen jets in a plasmatron with a discharge channel radius R_c=3·10^–2 m correspond closely to the case of spheres in hypersonic flows with parameters determined by the simulation conditions [2, 3].Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 2, pp. 135–143, March–April, 1990.

It is shown that for > -1/2 the solution develops from a similarity solution which is valid for small values ofx to one which is valid for large values ofx.

Experimental investigation of separation of turbulent boundary layer in vicinity of a step

The results of an experimental investigation of the separation of a turbulent boundary layer in the vicinity of a step on a flat plate at M = 2 and 3, and Re = U/v = (26–66)·10⁶ m^–1 are given. The step height was varied from 3 to 16 mm, which corresponded to the range of relative heights 1.1 h/ 7.6, where is the thickness of the boundary layer at the point at which the pressure starts to increase in front of the step. The obtained data for the pressure distribution in front of the step, and on its face and top surface, and the results of probe measurements in the separation and adjacent regions provide a more accurate scheme of the flow.

Die temperatur- und druckinvariante Darstellung der Scherviskosität von geschmolzenem Polymethylmethacrylat

Zusammenfassung An Polymethylmethacrylaten mit zahlenmittleren Molekulargewichten zwischen 8000 und 145000 g/Mol wurde die Scherviskosität bei Temperaturen im Bereich von 130–190 °C und bei Drücken bis zu 1000 kp/cm² in Abhängigkeit vom Schergefälle gemessen. Trägt man die an ein und derselben Probe gemessenen relativen Viskositäten/ ₀ (₀ untere Newtonsche Viskosität) über ₀· doppeltlogarithmisch auf, so erhält man eine einzige temperatur- und druckinvariante Kurve (master curve). Mit sinkendem Molekulargewicht machen sich jedoch bei großen Abszissenwerten zunehmend Abweichungen von der Temperatur- und Druckinvarianz bemerkbar. Die an Proben mit verschiedenem Molekulargewicht ermittelten invarianten Kurven weisen Wendepunkte auf, die sich mit wachsendem Molekulargewicht immer mehr zu niedrigeren Werten von/ ₀ verlagern. Durch Verschieben in Abszissenrichtung kann man die Kurven bis zu ihren Wendepunkten miteinander zur Deckung bringen und erhält auf diese Weise einen begrenzten Bereich der Molekulargewichtsinvarianz.Die Temperatur- und Druckinvarianz läßt sich sowohl mit den vonPrandtl undEyring als auch mit den vonF. Bueche entwickelten Modellen für das Fließen von Hochpolymeren begründen. Aus der Temperatur- und Druckinvarianz folgt, daß der Temperatur- und der Druckkoeffizient der Viskosität mit zunehmendem Schergefälle in gleicher Weise abnehmen und ein Minimum durchlaufen, wie auch experimentell bestätigt wird.

Summary The shear viscosity of polymethylmethacrylates (number average molecular weights from 8000 to 145000 g/mole) was measured in dependence of shear rate in the temperature range from 130–190 °C and with pressures up to 1000 kp/cm². If for one specimen ₀ ( ₀ lower Newtonian viscosity) is plotted over ₀· , both in logarithmic scales, one gets a curve, which is independent of temperature and pressure (master curve). With decreasing molecular weights increasing deviations from the master curve are found. The master curves found with specimens of different molecular weights have inflection points, which shift to lower values of ₀ with increasing molecular weight. By shifting of the whole curves in direction of the abscissa the parts until to the inflection point might be reduced to a single plot which is independent of molecular weight.The independence of temperature and pressure might be derived from the models developed by eitherPrandtl andEyring orF. Bueche for the flow in high polymers. From this follows that the temperature- and the pressure-coefficient of viscosity will similarly decrease with increasing shear rate until to a minimum, which was experimentally verified.

Aspect ratio effect on flow-induced forces on circular cylinders in a cross-flow

Finite-span circular cylinders with two different aspect ratios, placed in a cross-flow, are investigated experimentally at a cylinder Reynolds number of 46,000. Simultaneous measurements of the flow-induced unsteady forces on the cylinders and the stream velocity in the wake are carried out. These results together with mean drag measurements along the span and available literature data are used to evaluate the flow mechanisms responsible for the induced unsteady forces and the effect of aspect ratio on these forces. The coherence of vortex shedding along the span of the cylinder is partially destroyed by the separated flow emanating from the top and by the recirculating flow behind the cylinder. As a result, the fluctuating lift decreases drastically. Based on the data collected, it is conjectured that the fluctuating recirculating flow behind the cylinder is the flow mechanism responsible for the unsteady drag and causes it to increase beyond the fluctuating lift. The fluctuating recirculating flow is a direct consequence of the unsteady separated flow. The unsteady forces vary along the span, with lift increasing and drag decreasing towards the cylinder base. When the cylinder span is large compared to the wall boundary layer thickness, a submerged two-dimensional region exists near the base. As the span decreases, the submerged two-dimensional region becomes smaller and eventually vanishes. Altogether, these results show that fluctuating drag is the dominant unsteady force in finite-span cylinders placed in a cross-flow. Its characteristic frequency is larger than that of the vortex shedding frequency.List of symbols a span of active element on cylinder, = 2.5 cm - C _D local rms drag coefficient, 2D/ U ² da - C _L local rms lift coefficient, 2l/ U ² da - C _D local mean drag coefficient, 2D/ U ² da - C _D spanwise-averaged C _D for finite-span cylinder - (C _D ) _2D spanwise-averaged mean drag coefficient for two-dimensional cylinder - C _p pressured coefficient - -(C _p ) _b pressure coefficient at = - d diameter of cylinder, = 10.2 cm - D fluctuating component of instantaneous drag - D local rms of fluctuating drag - D local mean drag - E _D power spectrum of fluctuating drag, defined as - E _L power spectra of fluctuating lift, defined as - f _D dominant frequency of drag spectrum - f _L dominant frequency of lift spectrum - f _u dominant frequency of velocity spectrum - h span of cylinder - H height of test section, = 30.5 cm - L fluctuating component of instantaneous lift - L local rms of fluctuating lift - R _Du () cross-correlation function of streamwise velocity and local drag, - R _Lu () cross-correlation function of stream wise velocity and local lift, - Re Reynolds number, U d/y - S _L Strouhal number based on f _L ,f _L d/U - S _D Strouhal number based on f _D ,f _D d/U - S _u Strouhal number based on f _u , f _u d/U - t time - u fluctuating component of instantaneous streamwise velocity - U mean streamwise velocity - mean stream velocity upstream of cylinder - x streamwise distance measured from axis of cylinder - y transverse distance measured from axis of test section - z spanwise distance measured from cylinder base - angular position on cylinder circumference measured from forward stagnation - kinematic viscosity of air - density of air - time lag in cross-correlation function - _D normalized spectrum of fluctuating drag - _L normalized spectrum of fluctuating lift     

Flow in porous media III: Deformable media

Stokes flow in a deformable medium is considered in terms of an isotropic, linearly elastic solid matrix. The analysis is restricted to steady forms of the momentum equations and small deformation of the solid phase.

Mass transfer with chemical surface reaction on flat plates in flow

The flow field and mass transfer from flat plates with chemical surface reaction can be described by means of differential equations. Their solutions have been obtained numerically without any simplifications. This report presents some of the more important results obtained, which give insight into the true transport phenomena.A comprehensive mass transfer law has been developed, that has a wide range of validity. It is in good agreement with all available experimental and theoretical data. The new mass transfer equation includes the special case of boundary layer law besides other special laws that describe mass transfer in limited regions of relevant parameters.

Transport in ordered and disordered porous media III: Closure and comparison between theory and experiment

In this paper we examine the closure problem associated with the volume averaged form of the Stokes equations presented in Part II. For both ordered and disordered porous media, we make use of a spatially periodic model of a porous medium. Under these circumstances the closure problem, in terms of theclosure variables, is independent of the weighting functions used in the spatial smoothing process. Comparison between theory and experiment suggests that the geometrical characteristics of the unit cell dominate the calculated value of the Darcy's law permeability tensor, whereas the periodic conditions required for thelocal form of the closure problem play only a minor role.Roman Letters A interfacial area of the- interface contained within the macroscopic region, m² - A _e area of entrances and exits for the-phase contained within the macroscopic system, m² - A interfacial area of the- interface associated with the local closure problem, m² - A _p surface area of a particle, m² - b vector used to represent the pressure deviation, m^–1 - B ⁰ B+I, a second order tensor that maps v _m ontov - B second-order tensor used to represent the velocity deviation - d _p 6V _p/A_p, effective particle diameter, m - d a vector related to the pressure, m - D a second-order tensor related to the velocity, m² - g gravity vector, m/s² - I unit tensor - K traditional Darcy's law permeability tensor calculated on the basis of a spatially periodic model, m² - K _m permeability tensor for the weighted average form of Darcy's law, m² - L general characteristic length for volume averaged quantities, m - L _p characteristic length for the volume averaged pressure, m - L characteristic length for the porosity, m - L _v characteristic length for the volume averaged velocity, m - characteristic length (pore scale) for the-phase - _i i=1, 2, 3 lattice vectors, m - weighting function - m(-y) , convolution product weighting function - m _v special convolution product weighting function associated with the traditional averaging volume - m _g general convolution product weighting function - m _V unit cell convolution product weighting function - m _C special convolution product weighting function for ordered media which produces the cellular average - n unit normal vector pointing from the-phase toward the -phase - p pressure in the-phase, N/m² - p _m superficial weighted average pressure, N/m² - p _m intrinsic weighted average pressure, N/m² - p traditional intrinsic volume averaged pressure, N/m² - p – p _m , spatial deviation pressure, N/m² - r ₀ radius of a spherical averaging volume, m - r _m support of the convolution product weighting function - r position vector, m - r position vector locating points in the-phase, m. - V averaging volume, m³ - B volume of the-phase contained in the averaging volume, m³ - V _cell volume of a unit cell, m³ - v velocity vector in the-phase, m/s - v _m superficial weighted average velocity, m/s - v _m intrinsic weighted average velocity, m/s - v traditional superficial volume averaged velocity, m/s - v – v _m , spatial deviation velocity, m/s - x position vector locating the centroid of the averaging volume or the convolution product weighting function, m - y position vector relative to the centroid, m - y position vector locating points in the -phase relative to the centroid, m Greek Letters indicator function for the-phase - Dirac distribution associated with the- interface - V /V, volume average porosity - _m m * , weighted average porosity - mass density of the-phase, kg/m³ - viscosity of the-phase, Ns/m²
