Abstract The aim of the work is to develop a laser Doppler anemometry method for diagnosing turbulent aerodynamic flows in the near wall region. This will enable measuring two projections of the velocity vector in the range of 0.001 … 400 m/s with a relative error not exceeding 0.1%. The measurement area is 0.1×0.1x0.5mm. The positioning device allows moving the measuring unit in the area of 250×250x250 mm with an accuracy of 0.1 mm. This method also provides the ability to measure local flow rate fluctuations.

Rayleigh–Bénard convection in water is studied by means of direct numerical simulations, taking into account the variation of properties. The simulations considered a three-dimensional (3-D) cavity with a square cross-section and its two-dimensional (2-D) equivalent, covering a Rayleigh number range of $10^{6}\leqslant Ra\leqslant 10^{9}$ and using temperature differences up to 60 K. The main objectives of this study are (i) to investigate and report differences obtained by 2-D and 3-D simulations and (ii) to provide a first appreciation of the non-Oberbeck–Boussinesq (NOB) effects on the near-wall time-averaged and root-mean-squared (r.m.s.) temperature fields. The Nusselt number and the thermal boundary layer thickness exhibit the most pronounced differences when calculated in two dimensions and three dimensions, even though the $Ra$ scaling exponents are similar. These differences are closely related to the modification of the large-scale circulation pattern and become less pronounced when the NOB values are normalised with the respective Oberbeck–Boussinesq (OB) values. It is also demonstrated that NOB effects modify the near-wall temperature statistics, promoting the breaking of the top–bottom symmetry which characterises the OB approximation. The most prominent NOB effect in the near-wall region is the modification of the maximum r.m.s. values of temperature, which are found to increase at the top and decrease at the bottom of the cavity.

The effects of adverse pressure gradients on the thermal and momentum characteristics of a heated transitional boundary layer were investigated with free-stream turbulence ranging from 0.3 to 0.6 percent. Boundary layer measurements were conducted for two constant-K cases, K1 = −0.51 × 10−6 and K2 = −1.05 × 10−6. The fluctuation quantities, u′, ν′, t′, the Reynolds shear stress (uν), and the Reynolds heat fluxes (νt and ut) were measured. In general, u′/U∞, ν′/U∞, and νt have higher values across the boundary layer for the adverse pressure-gradient cases than they do for the baseline case (K = 0). The development of ν′ for the adverse pressure gradients was more actively involved than that of the baseline. In the early transition region, the Reynolds shear stress distribution for the K2 case showed a near-wall region of high-turbulent shear generated at Y+ = 7. At stations farther downstream, this near-wall shear reduced in magnitude, while a second region of high-turbulent shear developed at Y+ = 70. For the baseline case, however, the maximum turbulent shear in the transition region was generated at Y+ = 70, and no near-wall high-shear region was seen. Stronger adverse pressure gradients appear to produce more uniform and higher t′ in the near-wall region (Y+ < 20) in both transitional and turbulent boundary layers. The instantaneous velocity signals did not show any clear turbulent/nonturbulent demarcations in the transition region. Increasingly stronger adverse pressure gradients seemed to produce large non turbulent unsteadiness (or instability waves) at a similar magnitude as the turbulent fluctuations such that the production of turbulent spots was obscured. The turbulent spots could not be identified visually or through conventional conditional-sampling schemes. In addition, the streamwise evolution of eddy viscosity, turbulent thermal diffusivity, and Prt, are also presented.

Doppler Technique

A laser-Doppler technique is successfully applied to measure the flow field inside a closed, backswept impeller, through a rotating window. Results show that, in contrast to the flow in many radial-exit impellers, the flow in the backswept impeller is stable and attached. Further, comparison with an open impeller demonstrates the fundamental difference in the flow fields near the shroud.

Turbulent Mass Transfer

Electrochemical mass transfer in turbulent flows and binary electrolytes is investigated. The primary objective is to provide information about mass transfer in the near-wall region between a solid boundary and a turbulent fluid flow at different Schmidt numbers. Based on the computational fluid dynamics and electrochemistry theories, a model for turbulent electrodes channel flow is established. The turbulent mass transfer in electrolytic processes has been predicted by the direct numerical simulation method under limiting current and galvanostatic conditions, we investigate mean concentration and the structure of the concentration fluctuating filed for different Schmidt numbers from 0.1 to 100 .The effect of different concentration boundary conditions at the electrodes on the near-wall turbulence statistics is also discussed.

This paper reports on the application of unsteady Reynolds averaged Navier—Stokes (U-RANS) and hybrid large-eddy simulation (LES)/Reynolds averaged Navier—Stokes (RANS) methods to predict flows in compressor cascades using an affordable computational mesh. Both approaches use the ζ— f elliptic relaxation eddy-viscosity model, which for U-RANS prevails throughout the flow, whereas for the hybrid the U-RANS is active only in the near-wall region, coupled with the dynamic LES in the rest of the flow. In this ‘seamless’ coupling the dissipation rate in the k-equation is multiplied by a grid-detection function in terms of the ratio of the RANS and LES length scales. The potential of both approaches was tested in several benchmark flows showing satisfactory agreement with the available experimental results. The flow pattern through the tip clearance in a low-speed linear cascade shows close similarity with experimental evidence, indicating that both approaches can reproduce qualitatively the tip leakage and tip separation vortices with a relatively coarse computational mesh. The hybrid method, however, showed to be superior in capturing the evolution of vortical structures and related unsteadiness in the hub and wake regions.
