Effects of a Turbulent Field on Turbulent Prandtl Number
This paper describes an investigation of the effects of characteristic values in a flow field on turbulent Prandtl number. The relational expressions of the dissipation rate of temperature fluctuation were obtained in an isotropic turbulent field when the turbulence became both sufficiently strong and weak.

Numerical Study of Liquid Metal Turbulent Heat Transfer in Cross-Flow Tube Banks
Heavy liquid metals (HLM) are attractive coolants for nuclear fission and fusion applications due to their excellent thermal properties. In these reactors, a high coolant flow rate must be processed in compact heat exchangers, and as such, it may be ...

Fluctuation dynamo and turbulent induction at small Prandtl number [PDF]
We study the Lagrangian mechanism of the fluctuation dynamo at zero Prandtl number and infinite magnetic Reynolds number, in the Kazantsev-Kraichnan model of white-noise advection. With a rough velocity field corresponding to a turbulent inertial-range, flux-freezing holds only in a stochastic sense.

RANS Modeling of Stably Stratified Turbulent Boundary Layer Flows in OpenFOAM®
Quantifying mixing processes relating to the transport of heat, momentum, and scalar quantities of stably stratified turbulent geophysical flows remains a substantial task. In a stably stratified flow, such as the stable atmospheric boundary layer (SABL),

Turbulent Rayleigh–Bénard convection for a Prandtl number of 0.67
For the Rayleigh-number range 107 ≲ Ra ≲ 1011 we report measurements of the Nusselt number Nu and of properties of the large-scale circulation (LSC) for cylindrical samples of helium gas (Prandtl number Pr = 0.674) that have aspect ratio Γ ≡ D/L = 0.50 (D and L are the diameter and the height respectively) and are heated from below.
