The structure of the vorticity field in homogeneous turbulent flows

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1987
The structure of the vorticity fields in homogeneous turbulent shear flow and various irrotational straining flows is examined using results from direct numerical simulations of the unsteady, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations with up to 128 × 128 × 128 grid points.

Organized structures in a reattaching separated flow field

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1984
Spanwise structures in a two-dimensional reattaching separated flow were studied using multisensor hot-wire anemometry techniques. The results of these measurements strongly support the existence and importance of large-scale vortices in both the separated and reattached regions of this flow.

The structure of flow field at Yokogan-sone seamount

Oceans '04 MTS/IEEE Techno-Ocean '04 (IEEE Cat. No.04CH37600), 2005
The structure of flow field around a tall seamount, called Yokogan-sone, which is located to the southwest of the Nansei Islands in the East China Sea was investigated with a combination of observations and a numerical model simulation. The flow field around the seamount was preliminarily measured using an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) in ...

Structure of the stretching field in chaotic cavity flows

AIChE Journal, 1994
AbstractStretching of material elements in time‐periodic cavity flows is investigated numerically. The spatial structure of the stretching field is determined not only by nonchaotic islands and by unstable manifolds of hyperbolic periodic points, but also by singularities of the flow field at the cavity corners. For the short time scales interesting to

Structural Stability in Evolving Flow Fields

1979
The changing topology of an evolving flow field can be studied by mapping it into velocity space and observing the singularities. In two dimensions the structurally stable singularities are folds, which are lines, and cusps, which are isolated points on the folds [2].

Observations of the near-field structures of the glottal flow

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2005
The three-dimensional glottal jet was measured downstream from a self-oscillating physical model of the vocal folds using several techniques, including grid-based hotwire anemometry, high-speed flow visualization, and particle image velocimetry. Coherent flow structures were extracted from the spatio-temporal data using principal component analysis ...

Ball-like structures of the Beltrami flow field

ZAMM, 2005
Summary: We derive stationary Beltrami flow fields based on the analogy borrowed from the free Maxwell equations in vacuum. The stationary Beltrami field we obtained is helical and/or ball-like once it is represented in a suitable frame of reference. Our solutions also illustrate the formation of a ball-like pattern and the possible splitting (into two)

Study on the flow structure around a flat plate in a stagnation flow field

Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1990
Numerical solutions have been obtained for steady viscous flow past a finite flat plate attached normally to an infinite wall at Reynolds numbers Re up to 2800. Separately, Levi-Civita's method has been used to obtain the flow solution based on the free-streamline theory.

Structure of self-field accelerated plasma flows

Journal of Propulsion and Power, 1991
An analysis is presented of self-field accelerated quasi-one-dimensional plasma flows with zero axial current. When magnetic convection dominates over magnetic diffusion (large magnetic Reynolds number Rm\ inlet and exit current concentration layers occur, which are analyzed by asymptotic methods to zeroth order in l/Rm.

Structure of the Flow Field of a Nonpremixed Gas Jet Flame in Cross-Flow

Journal of Energy Resources Technology, 1997
Experimental studies on nonpremixed turbulent flames in cross flow are necessary as the current analytical and numerical tools are unable to provide acceptable quantitative information about their complex flow fields. This study, which complements the results of a previous study by the authors on the flame structure in the stabilization region of a ...
