Instability waves in the wall region of a turbulent boundary layer on a flat plate

Coherent structures and the bursting phenomena in the wall region of a turbulent boundary layer play a very important role in determining the characteristics of the boundary layer. Yet the nature and the origin of the coherent structures are unclear until now. In this paper, nonlinear stability calculations for the wall region of a turbulent boundary layer have been made. It was found that there do exist instability waves which may be responsible for the coherent structures. The project is supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.

Formation of intermittent region by coherent motions in the turbulent boundary layer: Coherent motions and intermittent region

Coherent motions in the turbulent boundary layer and their relation to the large-scale structures in the intermittent region are investigated experimentally. Using conditional sampling technique, we have shown that a coherent motion is a pair of counter-rotating fluid motions. These coherent motions of various sizes take place in the turbulent boundary layer. Most of them are short and are found only near the wall, but some are tall enough to reach the outer edge of the boundary layer. The turbulent bulges of the intermittent region are formed by these tall coherent motions.

Development of three-dimensional disturbances in a boundary layer

In the region of transition from a two-dimensional laminar boundary layer to a turbulent one, three-dimensional flow occurs [1–3]. It has been proposed that this flow is formed as the result of nonlinear interaction of two-dimensional and three-dimensional disturbances predicted by linear hydrodynamic stability theory. Using many simplifications, [4, 5] performed a calculation of this interaction for a free boundary layer and a boundary layer on a wall with a very coarse approximation of the velocity profile. The results showed some argreement with experiment. On the other hand, it is known that disturbances of the Tollmin—Schlichting wave type can be observed at sufficiently high amplitude. This present study will use the method of successive linearization to calculate the primary two- and three-dimensional disturbances, and also the average secondary flow occurring because of nonlinear interaction of the primary disturbances. The method of calculation used is close to that of [4, 5], the disturbance parameters being calculated on the basis of a Blazius velocity profile. A detailed comparison of results with experimental data [1] is made. It developed that at large disturbance amplitude the amplitude growth rate differs from that of linear theory, while the spatial distribution of disturbances agree s well with the distribution given by the natural functions and their nonlinear interaction. In calculating the secondary flow an experimental correction was made to the amplitude growth rate.

The width of slowly-moving streak line and bursting time of coherent structure expressed by momentum thickness Reynolds number of boundary layer have been obtained, which are in agreement with the experimental data^[3,4,5,7] Project supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China     

吹吸扰动对壁湍流相干结构的影响

采用热线风速仪测量受吹吸扰动的壁湍流边界层的流向速度,用傅里叶变换和子波变换研究 吹吸扰动对壁湍流能谱的影响,结果显示施加的低频扰动使边界层内层大尺度结构的能量减 少,小尺度结构的能量有所增强,远离壁面时扰动强度逐步衰减直到在外层中消失;通过VITA 法和子波变换法检测猝发事件,表明该扰动降低了猝发强度,使猝发周期延长,条件平均速 度波形的幅值降低、持续时间变短,说明扰动明显抑制了相干结构的猝发过程. 利用子波变 换可以实现湍谱分析,能有效检测猝发中的湍流结构,是一种客观的分析工具.     

双振子同异步振动主动控制湍流边界层减阻实验研究

本文以镶嵌在平板上沿展向对放的两个压电陶瓷振子为主动控制激励器,自主设计了零质量射流主动控制湍流边界层减阻实验方案.在风洞中开展了双压电振子同步和异步振动主动控制湍流边界层减阻的实验研究,实现了压电振子的周期扰动对湍流边界层多尺度相干结构的干扰和调制,施加控制后减小了壁面摩擦阻力,获得减阻效果.当异步控制100 V, 160 Hz工况时得到最大减阻率为18.54%.小波多尺度分析结果表明,施加控制工况中PZT振子的周期性扰动使得小尺度结构的湍流脉动强度增强,改变了近壁区大尺度和小尺度结构的含能分布,且异步控制工况比同步控制工况的减阻效果好.当双振子振动频率为160 Hz时,流向脉动速度的小波系数PDF曲线呈现出波动特征,尾部变宽显著,近壁湍流脉动更加有序和规则,湍流间歇性减弱.对小尺度脉动进行条件相位平均的结果表明,施加PZT周期扰动后使得大尺度结构破碎成为小尺度结构,小尺度脉动强度增强,实现减阻.随着流向位置离PZT振子越来越远,周期性扰动对相干结构的调制作用逐渐减弱.

Turbulent boundary layer on a catalytic surface in a nonequilibrium dissociating gas

The majority of the studies which consider the flow of a dissociating gas in a turbulent boundary layer are devoted to the investigation of either frozen or equilibrium flows on a flat plate.The frozen turbulent boundary layer has been studied by Dorrance [1], Kutateladze and Leont'ev [2], and Lapin and Sergeev [3]. A study of the effect of catalytic recombination processes at the plate surface on the heat transfer in a frozen turbulent boundary layer was made by Lapin [4].Kosterin and Koshmarov [5], Ginzburg [6], Dorrance [7], and Lapin [8] have studied the turbulent boundary layer on a plate in equilibrium dissociating gas.The calculation of the heat transfer in a turbulent boundary layer on a catalytic plate surface with nonequilibrium dissociation was made by Kulgein [9]. In this study the nonequilibrium nature of the dissociation process was taken into account only in the laminar sublayer, while the flow in the turbulent core was considered frozen. The solution was found numerically using a computer by means of a laborious iteration process.The present paper reports a method for calculating the turbulent boundary layer on a flat catalytic plate with arbitrary dissociation rate. The method, constructed using the assumptions customary for turbulent boundary layer theory, is a successive approximation method. Good convergence of the method is assured by the fact that the effect of the nonequilibrium nature of the dissociation process on the parameter distribution in the boundary layer and, consequently, on the friction and heat transfer may be allowed for merely by finding corrections, usually relatively small, to the distribution of these parameters in the equilibrium or frozen flows. The basis of the study is the two-layer scheme of the turbulent boundary layer. The Prandtl and Schmidt numbers and also their turbulent analogs are taken equal to unity. As the model of the dissociating gas we use the Lighthill model of the ideal dissociating gas [10], extended by Freeman [11] to nonequilibrium flows.
