Spectral analysis on dissimilarity between turbulent momentum and heat transfers in plane Couette turbulence

T. Kawata et al.

Summary: Nonlinear interactions between different scales in turbulence play an important role in the transport of turbulent energy and the heat transfer mechanism. This study investigates the interactions between scales in velocity and temperature fields in a turbulent plane Couette flow with passive-scalar heat transfer. The results show that turbulent heat transfer occurs at smaller length scales compared to momentum transfer, and the scale interactions in the temperature field supply more energy to small scales. The significant temperature cascade leads to more energetic temperature fluctuation at small scales, resulting in spectral dissimilarity between turbulent heat and momentum transfers.

Ascending-descending and direct-inverse cascades of Reynolds stresses in turbulent Couette flow

Alessandro Chiarini et al.

Summary: This study investigates the interaction between small- and large-scale structures in a turbulent plane Couette flow using the anisotropic generalized Kolmogorov equations. Both bottom-up and top-down processes are considered, with a particular focus on the wall-normal direction. The findings reveal the involvement of large-scale motions in the production and redistribution of turbulent fluctuations, with complex interactions and cascades occurring within different scale ranges.

Minimal multi-scale dynamics of near-wall turbulence

Patrick Doohan et al.

Summary: This study investigates the temporal dynamics of near-wall turbulent flow with two integral length scales of motion using a shear stress-driven flow model, revealing scale interaction processes and non-equilibrium turbulent dissipation dynamics. A new scale interaction process is identified where wall-normal energy transfer from large to small scales drives small-scale turbulent production.

Coherent structures associated with interscale energy transfer in turbulent channel flows

Hongping Wang et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the energy spectra, production spectra, and interscale energy transfer spectra for turbulent channel flows at two Reynolds numbers. It found that large-scale and small-scale flow fields exhibit different flow structures, and the large scales may have a self-sustaining mechanism similar to that of the near-wall region.

Direct numerical simulation of thermal channel flow for Reτ=5000 and Pr=0.71

Francisco Alcantara-Avila et al.

Summary: A direct numerical simulation of turbulent heat transfer in a channel flow was conducted at a Reynolds number of and a Prandtl number of air, . The study obtained mean values and intensities of temperature, calculated parameters such as the von Karman constant and the Nusselt number, and proposed correlations. It was observed that an asymptotic behavior of the von Karman constant was present as the Reynolds number increased.

Direct numerical simulation of thermal channel flow for medium-high Prandtl numbers up to Reτ=2000

F. Alcantara-Avila et al.

Summary: A new set of DNS experiments were conducted on a thermal channel flow, covering friction Reynolds and Prandtl numbers up to 2000 and 10, reaching a Prandtl number of 7 for water and introducing a new scale for the conductive sublayer thickness. The thermal field intensity does not increase with Reynolds number for highest Prandtl numbers, indicating good scaling near the wall. The Nusselt number shows a power function behavior with respect to Prandtl number in a certain range of the friction Peclet number, with turbulent Prandtl number increasing near the wall for highest Prandtl numbers due to reduction in thermal eddy diffusivity.

Interscale transport mechanisms in turbulent boundary layers

C. Chan et al.

Summary: The flow physics of turbulent boundary layers was investigated using spectral analysis based on the spanwise scale decomposition of the Reynolds stress transport equation with data obtained from direct numerical simulation. The study revealed evidence of inverse turbulent kinetic energy transfer occurring in the near-wall region, as well as inverse transfer of Reynolds shear stress transport across the entire boundary layer. Interactions between large-scale structures and the free stream flow were also observed at the edge of the boundary layer.

Energy transfer structures associated with large-scale motions in a turbulent boundary layer

Wenkang Wang et al.

Summary: The study investigates the role of large-scale motions (LSMs) in energy transfer using wall-parallel velocity fields at low-to-moderate Reynolds number. An anisotropic filter is designed to explore energy flux, revealing a strong connection between large-scale energy flux events and LSMs. The findings suggest that the meandering nature of LSMs could play a determining role in the process of large-scale energy transfer.
