In addition, a new approximation based evaluation method is introduced and applied for shear value determination including smoothing of the raw digital image correlation data with consideration of characteristic noise properties. This enables the analysis of noise induced error influences. It was proved by the approximation based method, that the standard ARAMIS evaluation provides shear value results, which are suitable for performed characterization tests.

To measure this distribution, it is common to take microscopic images and determine manually the thicknesses at particular discrete points. We compare and provide several methods determining the thickness distribution from microscopic images. First, an interpolation scheme is chosen to obtain a continuous function of the interfaces between the layers instead of the discrete pixel data. Afterwards, the methods—ruled surface approach, orthogonal projection, embedded circle scheme, and a dull but simple method—are applied and compared with each other. For very smooth data, most of the schemes show equivalent results. However, the “brute force”—called the dull approach—turns out to be the most robust scheme, particularly, if noisy data is studied. The Gaussian error propagation concept is applied to study the uncertainties resulting from noisy pixel data. The schemes are adapted to finite element simulation results as well so that a direct comparison of experimental and numerical data would be possible.</p>","PeriodicalId":53634,"journal":{"name":"GAMM Mitteilungen","volume":"45 3-4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-04-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/gamm.202200008","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83514915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is shown that the wall-normal momentum transport is decreased and increased near the heated and cooled wall, respectively, and that this leads to a reduced and elevated production of turbulent velocity fluctuations in the streamwise velocity component in the aiding and opposing flow, respectively. The corresponding flow structures are smoother, faster and warmer in the aiding flow and aligned along the main flow, while the colder structures in the opposing flow are more frayed and less directed. The warmer flow structures in the aiding flow are overall more stable than the colder structures in the opposing flow. Besides, the study reveals that the position of the maximum temperature fluctuations moves toward the heated wall, so that the sweeps produced at the two walls are affected differently by the former. As a consequence, the distance and time period over which the fluctuations develop in the aiding flow are shorter than in the opposing flow. It is further shown that vortex structures oriented in the streamwise direction usually arise with an offset to the right or left above a sweep or an ejection, whereby the decreasing values of the correlation coefficients with increasing Grashof number indicate a weakening of the vortex structures.

In this paper, we use sDMD to identify and extract dominant spatiotemporal structures of different turbulent flows, requiring the analysis of large datasets. First, the efficiency and accuracy of sDMD are compared to the classical DMD, using a publicly available test dataset that consists of velocity field snapshots obtained by direct numerical simulation of a wake flow behind a cylinder. Streaming DMD not only reliably reproduces the most important dynamical features of the flow; our calculations also highlight its advantage in terms of the required computational resources. We subsequently use sDMD to analyse three different turbulent flows that all show some degree of large-scale coherence: rapidly rotating Rayleigh–Bénard convection, horizontal convection and the asymptotic suction boundary layer (ASBL). Structures of different frequencies and spatial extent can be clearly separated, and the prominent features of the dynamics are captured with just a few dynamic modes.

In this article, our focus is on a promising method inducing a spanwise wall movement in order to reduce turbulence intensity and hence friction drag, investigated by means of direct numerical simulation. This approach transforms a previously time dependent oscillatory wall motion into a static spatial modulation with prescribed wavelength in the streamwise direction [48]. Most procedures related to turbulence control including the present one have been overwhelmingly applied to incompressible flow. This work is different and novel to the effect, that this control method is applied to compressible, supersonic channel flow up to a bulk Mach number of <math>\u0000 <mrow>\u0000 <mi>M</mi>\u0000 <mi>a</mi>\u0000 <mo>=</mo>\u0000 <mn>3</mn>\u0000 </mrow></math>. Due to substantial variations of viscosity, density, and temperature within the near-wall region in supersonic flow, the impact of the control method is altered compared to solenoidal flow conditions. By creating a data set of different Mach-/Reynolds numbers and control parameters, knowledge is gained in which way the effectiveness of oscillatory techniques and physical mechanisms change under the influence of compressibility. It is shown that the control method is able to effectively reduce turbulence levels and lead to large drag reduction levels in compressible supersonic flow. Variable property effects even enhance this behavior for the whole set of investigated parameters. Overall, the higher Mach number cases show a larger net power saving compared to the incompressible ones. Furthermore, we observe an increase of the optimum wavelength with increasing Mach number, which helps in guiding optimal implementations of such a control method.</p>","PeriodicalId":53634,"journal":{"name":"GAMM Mitteilungen","volume":"45 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-01-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/gamm.202200004","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76022973","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
