The respective turbulent flows are detailed via a triple-wire of a constant-temperature hot wire anemometer. The two flows are compared in terms of the spatial evolution of the essential turbulence characteristics, including the various turbulence intensities and length scales. As expected, a higher level of turbulence resulted from the sharp edges of the OPP. Surprisingly, the finite-thickness converging passages of the CNPP caused the other turbulence parameters to behave rather perplexingly.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"345 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77792242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, a combined experimental and computational approach was conducted to study the aerodynamics of the flow field in the human airway. An anatomically accurate pharynx model associated with different uvula kinematics was reconstructed from human magnetic resonance images (MRI) and high-speed photography. An immersed-boundary-method (IBM)-based direct numerical simulation (DNS) flow solver was used to simulate the corresponding unsteady flows in all their complexity. Analysis has been performed on vortex dynamics and pressure oscillation at various points of interest. Computations with varying airway obstructions, uvula kinematics, and vibrating frequencies were conducted to study the effect of the three factors on the vortex formation and pressure oscillation, respectively. It is found that the vortex formation is significantly affected by the airway width. The fast Fourier transformation (FFT) analysis of the pressure time history revealed the existence of higher order harmonics of the base frequency at significant amplitudes. It was also found that the pressure tended to oscillate more violently at higher uvula vibrating frequencies. Results from this work are expected to bring novel understanding on the sound producing in patients with sleep apnea and provide guidance for surgical interventions.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78312545","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These aforementioned facts create the need for further study and physical understanding of stall induced vibrations – stall flutter. In this context an aeroelastic setup was constructed at the NTUA subsonic wind tunnel with a rigid rectangular wing (500 mm × 1400 mm) of a NACA 64-418 airfoil supported by a spring system that enables pitching and plunging motions. The elastic axis of the wing is located 35% of the chord far from the leading edge while its center of mass at 46%. Increasing the free stream velocity (up to Re = 670 000) under various initial static angles of attack, the wing was set at fluid induced oscillations (pitching and plunging). The response of the wing under these conditions was recorded employing two accelerometers and two wire sensors for both the rotational and linear wing displacements. At the same time, in the middle of the wing span thirty (30) fast responsive pressure transducers measured the pressure distribution along the chord, while strain gauges attached to the wing rotating shaft measured the applied unsteady aerodynamic loading. Based on the above simultaneously measured quantities various aspects of the aeroelastic instability of the examined wing were revealed.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80912187","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Raghavan","doi":"10.1115/FEDSM2018-83367","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1115/FEDSM2018-83367","url":null,"abstract":"In this paper, flow structures around a corner modified square cylinder (side dimension, Bo) are presented and discussed. Cylinders with various corner arcs (circular) were considered (arc radius ‘r’). For various Corner Ratios (CR = r/Bo), values ranging from 0 to 0.5, flow visualization experiments were conducted in a water channel and the results are reported at Re = 2100 (based on Bo). Results presented are for two cases (a) stationary cylinders reporting the values of CD (coefficient of drag), St (Strouhal no.), and D (vortex size) and (b) oscillating cylinders at fe/fs = 1 (fe is the cylinder excitation frequency and fs is the vortex shedding frequency) and a/Bo = 0.8 (a is the cylinder oscillation amplitude). The work is aimed to explore the most effective configuration for drag reduction. Cylinder with corner ratio of 0.2 is proved to be the most effective one among the cases considered in this study with 19.3% drag reduction. As a major highlight, in contrast to the results of the previous studies, current study do not reveal a monotonous decrease of drag with increasing corner modification. Instead, it is shown here that, there is a specific value of CR ratio where the drag is the minimum most. A peculiar type of vortex structure was observed in the cases of stationary cylinders with CR > 0.2, contributing to the increase in drag. In the case of oscillating cylinders, description of one complete cycle for all CR ratios at various time instances are presented. The near-wake structures were observed to be dependent on the CR ratio. Counter intuitively, cylinder oscillation does not bring major difference in vortex size compared to the stationary case.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"4 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81153863","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Manera","doi":"10.1115/FEDSM2018-83280","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1115/FEDSM2018-83280","url":null,"abstract":"Turbulent free jets attracted the focus of many scientists within the past century regarding the understanding of mass- and momentum transport in the turbulent shear field, especially in the near-field and the self-similar region. Recent investigations attempt to understand the intermediate fields, called the mixing transition or ‘the route to self-similarity’. An apparent gap is recognized in light of this mixing transition, with two main conjectures being put forth. Firstly the flow will always asymptotically reach a fully self-similar state if boundary conditions permit. The second proposes partial and local self-similarity within the mixing transition. We address the later with an experimental investigation of the intermediate field turbulence dynamics in a non-confined free jet with a nozzle diameter of 12.7 mm and an outer scale Reynolds number of 15,000. High speed Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) is used to record the velocity fields with a final spatial resolution of 194 × 194 μm2. The analysis focuses on higher order moments and two-point correlations of velocity variances in space and time. We observed local self-similarity in the measured correlation fields. Coherent structures are present within the near-field where the turbulent energy spectrum cascades along a dissipative slope. Towards the transition region, the spectrum smoothly transforms to a viscous cascade, as it is commonly observed in the self-similar region.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"43 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79519280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Due to the complexity of shock configurations, there is no analytical theory to such problem and the mechanism of three-dimensional shock waves and boundary layer interaction has not been clearly known. In this paper, an analytical approach to the problem of three-dimensional steady shock wave interaction was exhibited to analytically interpret the mechanism of three-dimensional interaction of two oblique planar shock waves. The results showed that the problem of three-dimensional steady shock wave interaction could be transformed to that of two moving shock wave interaction in two-dimensional plane, and there are various interaction configurations such as regular interaction, Mach interaction and weak interaction. The mechanism of three-dimensional shock wave interaction is helpful to understand the complex flow mechanism induced by three-dimensional shock wave and boundary layer in hypersonic flow. The interaction of three-dimensional shock waves and boundary layer plays important role in the complex flow feature in hypersonic rudder region. The contact surface induced by three-dimensional shock waves represents a local jet. When the flow jet impinges on the boundary layer of wall surface, the jet makes the boundary layer thinner and will inevitably cause local heat flux peak. The interaction configurations of three-dimensional shock wave play important role in the gasdynamic heating mechanisms of hypersonic complex flow.","PeriodicalId":23480,"journal":{"name":"Volume 1: Flow Manipulation and Active Control; Bio-Inspired Fluid Mechanics; Boundary Layer and High-Speed Flows; Fluids Engineering Education; Transport Phenomena in Energy Conversion and Mixing; Turbulent Flows; Vortex Dynamics; DNS/LES and Hybrid RANS/LES Methods; Fluid Structure Interaction; Fl","volume":"40 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86302050","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
