Abstract
Low dimensional subspaces are extracted out of highly complex turbulent pipe flow at \(Re_{\tau }=181\) using a Characteristic Dynamic Mode Decomposition (CDMD). Having lower degrees of freedom, the subspaces provide a more clear basis to detect events which meet our understanding of large-scale coherent structures. To this end, a temporal sequence of state vectors from direct numerical simulations are rotated in space-time such that persistent dynamical modes on a hyper-surface are found travelling along its normal in space-time, which serves as the new time-like coordinate. The main flow features are captured with a minimal number of modes on a moving frame of reference whose velocity matches that of the most energetic scale. Reconstruction of the candidate modes in physical space gives the low rank model of the flow. The structures living in this subspace have long lifetimes, posses wide range of length-scales and travel at group velocities close to that of the moving frame of reference. The modes within this subspace are highly aligned, but are separated from the remaining modes by larger angles. We are able to capture the essential features of the flow like the spectral energy distribution and Reynolds stresses with a subspace consisting of about 10 modes. The remaining modes are collected in two further subspaces, which distinguish themselves by their axial length scale and degree of isotropy.
期刊介绍:
Flow, Turbulence and Combustion provides a global forum for the publication of original and innovative research results that contribute to the solution of fundamental and applied problems encountered in single-phase, multi-phase and reacting flows, in both idealized and real systems. The scope of coverage encompasses topics in fluid dynamics, scalar transport, multi-physics interactions and flow control. From time to time the journal publishes Special or Theme Issues featuring invited articles.
Contributions may report research that falls within the broad spectrum of analytical, computational and experimental methods. This includes research conducted in academia, industry and a variety of environmental and geophysical sectors. Turbulence, transition and associated phenomena are expected to play a significant role in the majority of studies reported, although non-turbulent flows, typical of those in micro-devices, would be regarded as falling within the scope covered. The emphasis is on originality, timeliness, quality and thematic fit, as exemplified by the title of the journal and the qualifications described above. Relevance to real-world problems and industrial applications are regarded as strengths.
