| Abstract: | An experimental investigation of the transition of a laminar flow regime into a turbulent one has been carried out in 1] for a flow in a circular pipe which is organized due to injection through the porous lateral surface with a jammed leading end of the pipe. It was established as a result that injection leads to an increase in stability of the laminar flow regime and increases the Reynolds number of the transition to 10,000 instead of the value 2300 which is characteristic of flow in a circular pipe with impenetrable walls. A similar effect was discovered in 2], in which it was also obtained that the Reynolds number of stability loss under the action of injection can take values significantly larger than in pipes with impenetrable walls. The phenomenon of relaminarization of a turbulent flow in the initial section of a circular pipe under the action of injection has been experimentally detected at the entrance for relatively low Reynolds numbers in 3, 4]. Theoretical investigations of stability of flow with injection have been performed only for a plane channel 5, 6]. A calculation is made in this paper of the stability of a hydrodynamically developed flow in a circular pipe with injection through a porous lateral surface.Translated from Zhurnal Prikladnoi Mekhaniki i Tekhnicheskoi Fiziki, No. 3, pp. 82–86, May–June, 1984. |
