Assessment of Turbulence Models for Cylinder Flow Aeroacoustics

open access: yesAerospace
Numerical simulations are performed for flows over a circular cylinder at a Reynolds number ranging from 150 to 5000, and Mach number of 0.2, to assess the predictive capability of URANS and hybrid RANS/LES for acoustic waves generation and propagation ...

Reduced chemical reaction mechanisms for simulating sodium emissions by solid-fuel combustion

open access: yesApplications in Energy and Combustion Science, 2020
Starting from a reference and comprehensive chemical mechanism for alkali metal emissions (Glarborg and Marshall, 2005), combined with an hydrocarbon oxidation described with a skeleton mechanism (Kazakov and Frenklach, 1994), reduced and optimized ...

Triple-deck and direct numerical simulation analyses high-speed subsonic flows past a roughness element [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper is concerned with the boundary-layer separation in subsonic and transonic flows caused by a two-dimensional isolated wall roughness. The process of the separation is analysed by means of two approaches: the direct numerical simulation (DNS) of

Experimental and CFD Characterization of a Double-Orifice Synthetic Jet Actuator for Flow Control

open access: yesActuators, 2021
The paper presents a joint experimental and numerical characterization of double-orifice synthetic jet actuators for flow control. Hot-wire measurements of the flow field generated by the device into a quiescent air environment were collected.

Objective multiscale analysis of random heterogeneous materials [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The multiscale framework presented in [1, 2] is assessed in this contribution for a study of random heterogeneous materials. Results are compared to direct numerical simulations (DNS) and the sensitivity to user-defined parameters such as the domain ...

DNS of the kappa-mechanism. I. Radial modes in the purely radiative case

open access: yes, 2008
Context: Hydrodynamical model of the kappa-mechanism in a purely radiative case. Aims: First, to determine the physical conditions propitious to kappa-mechanism in a layer with a configurable conductivity hollow and second, to perform the (nonlinear ...

Turbulence Transitions in Kelvin–Helmholtz Instability “Tube” and “Knot” Dynamics: Vorticity, Helicity, and Twist Waves

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
We address the sources and dynamics of vorticity and helicity and their relations in transitions to turbulence arising due to Kelvin–Helmholtz instability (KHI) “Tube” and “Knot” (T&K) events.

Direct Numerical Simulation Code Validation for Compressible Shear Flows Using Linear Stability Theory

open access: yesJournal of Aerospace Technology and Management, 2018
In order to simulate compressible shear flow stability and aeroacoustic problems, a numerical code must be able to capture how a baseflow behaves when submitted to small disturbances. If the disturbances are amplified, the flow is unstable.

Direct Numerical Simulation DNS: Maximum Error as a Function of Mode Number [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Numerical errors can be characterized in terms of algebraic polynomial approximation of a sine wave. The magnitude of the error will, therefore, depend on the energy at each mode in a Fourier expansion. Flows with a great deal of energy in the highest modes, such as Turbulence, are therefore the most difficult to approximate.
