In this work we study the turbulence modulation in a viscosity-stratified two-phase flow using Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of turbulence and the Phase Field Method (PFM) to simulate the interfacial phenomena. Specifically we consider the case of two immiscible fluid layers driven in a closed rectangular channel by an imposed mean pressure gradient. The present problem, which may mimic the behaviour of an oil flowing under a thin layer of different oil, thickness ratio h2/h1 =?9, is described by three main flow parameters: the shear Reynolds number Reτ (which quantifies the importance of inertia compared to viscous effects), the Weber number We (which quantifies surface tension effects) and the viscosity ratio λ = ν1/ν2 between the two fluids. For this first study, the density ratio of the two fluid layers is the same (ρ2 = ρ1), we keep Reτ and We constant, but we consider three different values for the viscosity ratio: λ =?1, λ =?0.875 and λ =?0.75. Compared to a single phase flow at the same shear Reynolds number (Reτ =?100), in the two phase flow case we observe a decrease of the wall-shear stress and a strong turbulence modulation in particular in the proximity of the interface. Interestingly, we observe that the modulation of turbulence by the liquid-liquid interface extends up to the top wall (i.e. the closest to the interface) and produces local shear stress inversions and flow recirculation regions. The observed results depend primarily on the interface deformability and on the viscosity ratio between the two fluids (λ). 相似文献
We present the data from ultrahigh-resolution laser-excited photoemission spectroscopy on a newly discovered noncentrosymmetric superconductor Mg10Ir19B16. We observed the evidences for the opening of superconducting gap where numerical fittings show that isotropic s-wave model can satisfactorily explain the behavior of spectra near the Fermi level. We also present the valence band photoemission spectrum and B K fluorescence spectrum to discuss the basic electronic structure of Mg10Ir19B16. 相似文献
Based on ab initio calculations, we quantify the magnetic
couplings and the stress tensor in ferromagnetic Sr-doped LaMnO3 upon combined application of built-in epitaxial and external uniaxial strains. We suggest YAlO3 as a substrate suited to change magnetic order in manganite film with practicable external strains. The effect could lead
to strain-activated switches based on piezoelectric-piezomagnetic heterojunctions. 相似文献
Rhenium does the job! A readily available rhenium complex efficiently catalyzed the direct Meyer–Schuster‐like rearrangement of different alkyl‐ and aryl‐substituted propargylic secondary and tertiary alcohols to the corresponding α,β‐unsaturated compounds, which were produced with virtually complete E stereoselectivity. The reaction proceeded under neutral conditions and no racemization of potentially enolizable stereocenters was observed.
We calculate the small quantum orbifold cohomology of arbitrary weighted projective spaces. We generalize Givental’s heuristic
argument, which relates small quantum cohomology to S1-equivariant Floer cohomology of loop space, to weighted projective spaces and use this to conjecture an explicit formula
for the small J-function, a generating function for certain genus-zero Gromov–Witten invariants. We prove this conjecture using a method
due to Bertram. This provides the first non-trivial example of a family of orbifolds of arbitrary dimension for which the
small quantum orbifold cohomology is known. In addition we obtain formulas for the small J-functions of weighted projective complete intersections satisfying a combinatorial condition; this condition naturally singles
out the class of orbifolds with terminal singularities. 相似文献
In this work we study the global regularity of the free boundaries arising in the optimal partial transport problem. Assuming
the supports of both the source and the target measure to be convex, we show that the free boundaries of the active regions
are globally C0,1/2.
