Lattice Boltzmann simulations of turbulent shear flow between parallel porous walls

The effects of two parallel porous walls are investigated, consisting of the Darcy number and the porosity of a porous medium, on the behavior of turbulent shear flows as well as skin-friction drag. The turbulent channel flow with a porous surface is directly simulated by the lattice Boltzmann method （LBM）. The Darcy-Brinkman- Forcheimer （DBF） acting force term is added in the lattice Boltzmann equation to simu- late the turbulent flow bounded by porous walls. It is found that there are two opposite trends （enhancement or reduction） for the porous medium to modify the intensities of the velocity fluctuations and the Reynolds stresses in the near wall region. The parametric study shows that flow modification depends on the Darcy number and the porosity of the porous medium. The results show that, with respect to the conventional impermeable wall, the degree of turbulence modification does not depend on any simple set of param- eters obviously. Moreover, the drag in porous wall-bounded turbulent flow decreases if the Darcy number is smaller than the order of O（10-4） and the porosity of porous walls is up to 0.4.     

TRPIV investigation of space-time correlation in turbulent flows over flat and wavy walls

The present experimental work is devoted to in- vestigate a new space-time correlation model for the turbulent boundary layer over a flat and a wavy walls. A turbulent boundary layer flow at Reo = 2460 is measured by tomographic time-resolved particle image velocimetry （Tomo-TRPIV）. The space-time correlations of instantaneous streamwise fluctuation velocity are calculated at 3 different wall-normal locations in logarithmic layer. It is found that the scales of coherent structure increase with moving far away from the wall. The growth of scales is a manifestation of the growth of prevalent coherent structures in the turbulent boundary layer like hairpin vortex or hairpin packets when they lift up. The resulting contours of the space-time correlation exhibit elliptic-like shapes rather than straight lines. It is suggested that, instead of Taylor hypothesis, the elliptic model of the space-time correlation is valid for the wallbounded turbulent flow over either a flat wall or a wavy wall. The elliptic iso-correlation curves have a uniform preferred orientation whose slope is determined by the convection velocity. The convection velocity derived from the space-time correlation represents the velocity at which the large-scale eddies carry small-scale eddies. The sweep velocity rep- resents the distortions of the small-scale eddies and is intimately associated with the fluctuation velocity in the logarithmic layer of turbulent boundary layers. The nondimensionalized correlation curves confirm that the elliptic model is more proper for approximating the space-time correlation than Taylor hypothesis, because the latter can not embody the small-scale motions which have non-negligible distortions. A second flow over a wavy wall is also recorded using TRPIV. Due to the combined effect of shear layers and the adverse pressure gradient, the space-time correlation does not show an elliptic-like shape at some specific heights over the wavy wall, but in the outer region of the wavy wallbounded flow, the elliptic model remai     

LES prediction of space-time correlations in turbulent shear flows

We compare the space-time correlations calculated from direct numerical simulation(DNS) and large-eddy simulation(LES) of turbulent channel flows.It is found from the comparisons that the LES with an eddy-viscosity subgrid scale(SGS) model over-predicts the space-time correlations than the DNS.The overpredictions are further quantified by the integral scales of directional correlations and convection velocities.A physical argument for the overprediction is provided that the eddy-viscosity SGS model alone does not includes the backscatter effects although it correctly represents the energy dissipations of SGS motions.This argument is confirmed by the recently developed elliptic model for space-time correlations in turbulent shear flows.It suggests that enstrophy is crucial to the LES prediction of spacetime correlations.The random forcing models and stochastic SGS models are proposed to overcome the overpredictions on space-time correlations.     

LES-based filter-matrix lattice Boltzmann model for simulating fully developed turbulent channel flow

In this paper, a three-dimensional filter-matrix lattice Boltzmann (FMLB) model based on large eddy simulation (LES) was verified for simulating wall-bounded turbulent flows. The Vreman subgrid-scale model was employed in the present FMLB–LES framework, which had been proved to be capable of predicting turbulent near-wall region accurately. The fully developed turbulent channel flows were performed at a friction Reynolds number Re_τ of 180. The turbulence statistics computed from the present FMLB–LES simulations, including mean stream velocity profile, Reynolds stress profile and root-mean-square velocity fluctuations greed well with the LES results of multiple-relaxation-time (MRT) LB model, and some discrepancies in comparison with those direct numerical simulation (DNS) data of Kim et al. was also observed due to the relatively low grid resolution. Moreover, to investigate the influence of grid resolution on the present LES simulation, a DNS simulation on a finer gird was also implemented by present FMLB–D3Q19 model. Comparisons of detailed computed various turbulence statistics with available benchmark data of DNS showed quite well agreement.     

Compressibility effects due to turbulent fluctuations

This paper deals with intrinsic effects of compressibility, i.e. with dilatation fluctuations in response to pressure fluctuations. Three different types of turbulent flows are considered in more detail: homogeneous turbulent shear flow, wall-bounded turbulent shear flow and shock/turbulence interaction. A survey of the present knowledge in this field, mainly based on DNS data, is given. Using the linear inviscid perturbation equations a direct link between fluctuations of dilatation and of velocity in the direction of mean shear is presented for homogeneous shear flow. This relation might form the basis for a more universal pressure-dilatation model. It is conjectured that the insignificance of intrinsic compressibility effects in wall-bounded supersonic shear flow is mainly due to the impermeability constraint of the wall. To this end, a linear stability analysis of supersonic channel flow along cooled, but permeable walls has been performed based on Coleman et al.'s [5] mean flow data. It shows an increase in the moduli of eigenfunctions related to compressibility, like pressure, and in moduli of quantities derived from eigenfunctions such as ‘pressure dilatation’ and squared dilatation. Although these results do not prove our hypothesis they provide hints in this direction. Shock/turbulence interaction is viewed as a source of compressibility. Former DNS data of Hannappel and Friedrich [10] for shock/isotropic turbulence interaction showing the effect of compressibility on the amplification of fluctuations are interpreted based on linear perturbation equations.

Parallel computation of turbulent flows using moment base lattice Boltzmann method

This paper describes parallel computing approach for simulating turbulent flows using a moment base lattice Boltzmann method. The distribution functions of the lattice Boltzmann method are expressed by corresponding moments. Choosing proper relaxation times for higher order moments, a minimum numerical dissipation is implicitly added to stabilise the method at high Reynolds numbers. Validation of the method is made by computing free decaying periodic turbulent flows and fully developed turbulent channel flows on a GPU platform. Though the present method requires additional work to calculate the higher order moments, it is shown that additional computational cost is negligible in the GPU computing. The numerical results stably obtained for the turbulent flows are in good agreement with those of a pseudo-spectral method and corresponding DNS database.     

Vortex structure of turbulence over permeable walls

In order to understand the effect of the wall permeability on the turbulent vortex structure near porous walls, based on PIV experimental data, a probability density analysis of fluctuating velocities, statistical quadrant and quadrant-hole analyses of the Reynolds shear stress are performed. The investigated flow fields are turbulent channel flows whose bottom walls are made of porous media. The porous media used are three kinds of foamed ceramics which have almost the same porosity (∼0.8) but different permeability. From the discussions on those analyses, a conceptual scenario of the development of the vortex structure near a permeable wall is proposed for a moderate permeability Reynolds number case. It explains the reason why the near-wall long streaky structure tends to vanish near a porous wall with increasing wall permeability.     

Wall-modeled large eddy simulation of turbulent channel flow at high Reynolds number using the von Karman length scale

The von Karman length scale is able to reflect the size of the local turbulence structure. However, it is not suitable for the near wall region of wall-bounded flows, for its value is almost infinite there. In the present study, a simple and novel length scale combining the wall distance and the von Karman length scale is proposed by introducing a structural function. The new length scale becomes the von Karman length scale once local unsteady structures are detected. The proposed method is adopted in a series of turbulent channel flows at different Reynolds numbers. The results show that the proposed length scale with the structural function can precisely simulate turbulence at high Reynolds numbers, even with a coarse grid resolution.     

Towards a Nonlinear Eddy-Viscosity Model Based on Elliptic Relaxation

A phenomenological method has been used to derive a nonlinear constitutive relationship that can be used in conjunction with any eddy-viscosity model utilizing the elliptic relaxation method. While retaining the merits of the elliptic relaxation to model near-wall turbulence, the new model also enables the turbulence anisotropy to be faithfully predicted in wall-bounded flows.
