Numerical Simulation on the Scalar Transport in Rotating Channel Turbulence
Passive scalar transport in channel turbulence with spanwise rotation is of relevance to many engineering applications. A systematical study on this problem was conducted based on direct numerical simulations. The Reynolds number defined by wall-friction

Intercomparison of In Situ Sensors for Ground-Based Land Surface Temperature Measurements
Land surface temperature (LST) is a key variable in the determination of land surface energy exchange processes from local to global scales. Accurate ground measurements of LST are necessary for a number of applications including validation of satellite ...

Hybrid Computation of the Aerodynamic Noise Radiated by the Wake of a Subsonic Cylinder
The noise radiated by the flow around a cylinder in the subcritical regime at ReD=1×104 and at a subsonic Mach number of M=0.5 is here studied. The aerodynamic sound radiated by a cylinder has been studied with a wide range of Reynolds numbers, but there

Inverse design of mesoscopic models for compressible flow using the Chapman-Enskog analysis
In this paper, based on simplified Boltzmann equation, we explore the inverse-design of mesoscopic models for compressible flow using the Chapman-Enskog analysis. Starting from the single-relaxation-time Boltzmann equation with an additional source term,
