  1. 1. Structure of Zero Pressure Gradient High Reynolds Number Turbulent Boundary Layers

    Author : Murat Tutkun; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fourier decomposition.; proper orthogonal decomposition; large scale structures; Turbulent boundary layers; zero pressure gradient; wind tunnel; calibration; cross-correlations; hot-wire; two-point correlations; high Reynolds number;

    Abstract : This thesis presents part of the large research program funded by the European Commission calledWallturb: A European synergy for the assessment of wall turbulence. The main aim of this researchprogram is to create new experimental and numerical databases on the characteristics of turbulent wall-bounded flows, especially turbulent boundary layers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Experimental studies in jet flows and zero pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers

    Author : Ramis Örlü; P. Henrik Alfredsson; Tim B. Nickels; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Axisymmetric jet; swirling jet; coaxial jet; heated jet; zero pressuregradient turbulent boundary layer; wall-bounded turbulent flows; overlap region; passive scalar mixing; hot-wire anemometry; spatial resolution.; Fluid mechanics; Strömningsmekanik;

    Abstract : This thesis deals with the description and development of two classical turbulent shear flows, namely free jet and flat plate turbulent boundary layer flows. In both cases new experimental data has been obtained and in the latter case comparisons are also made with data obtained from data bases, both of experimental and numerical origin. READ MORE

  4. 4. On pressure-driven Hele-Shaw flow

    Author : Salvador Manjate; Peter Wall; John Fabricius; Johan Byström; Niklas Lundström; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Applied Mathematics; Tillämpad matematik;

    Abstract : The present licentiate thesis is devoted to the rigorous derivation of the equations governing thin-film flow of incompressible Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids. More precisely, we consider flow in a generalized Hele-Shaw cell, which is a thin three-dimensional domain confined between two surfaces connected by cylindrical obstacles of various shapes.

  5. 5. Computational fluid-dynamics investigations of vortex generators for flow-separation control

    Author : Florian von Stillfried; Arne Johansson; Stefan Wallin; Jonathan Morrison; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; flow-separation control; vane vortex generator; vortex generator jet; zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer; adverse-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer; statistical modelling; turbulence; Reynolds stress- transport model; computational fluid dynamics;

    Abstract : Many flow cases in fluid dynamics face undesirable flow separation due to ad-verse pressure gradients on wall boundaries. This occurs, for example, due togeometrical reasons as in a highly curved turbine-inlet duct or on flow-controlsurfaces such as wing trailing-edge flaps within a certain angle-of-attack range.
