This paper presents a theoretical derivation of the empirical Blasius power law correlation for the friction factor. The coefficients in this correlation are shown to be dependent on the Reynolds number. Published experimental data is well…
This paper uses the estimates of phase-locked parameters at the onset of bursting presented in a companion paper to derive logarithmic correlations for turbulent friction factor losses in time-independent power law fluids. Two different…
Correlations of friction factors are presented for the general case of purely viscous non-Newtonian fluids without requiring a priori the adoption of a rheological model. They are based on an empirical estimate of the shift in the wall…
We show that the main results of the analysis of the friction factor for turbulent pipe flow reported in G. Gioia and P. Chakraborty (GC), Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 044502 (1996) can be recovered by assuming the Heisenberg closure hypothesis for…
A zonal similarity analysis of friction factors in pipe flow of power law fluids is presented. It uses the critical Reynolds number and friction factor at transition as estimates of the normalised velocity and distance between the wall and…
The transitional and well-developed regimes of turbulent shear flows exhibit a variety of remarkable scaling laws that are only now beginning to be systematically studied and understood. In the first part of this article, we summarize…
We investigate the fluctuation dynamics of a probe around a deterministic motion induced by interactions with driven particles. The latter constitute the nonequilibrium medium in which the probe is immersed and is modelled as overdamped…
Turbulence intensity profiles are compared for smooth- and rough-wall pipe flow measurements made in the Princeton Superpipe. The profile development in the transition from hydraulically smooth to fully rough flow displays a propagating…
I present empirical evidence that turbulent flows are closely analogous to critical phenomena, from a reanalysis of friction factor measurements in rough pipes. The data collapse found here corresponds to Widom scaling near critical points,…
Well-resolved direct numerical simulations (DNSs) have been performed of the flow in a smooth circular pipe of radius $R$ and axial length $10\pi R$ at friction Reynolds numbers up to $Re_\tau=5200$. Various turbulence statistics are…
The two-dimensional pressure driven flow of non-Newtonian power-law fluids in self-affine fracture channels at finite Reynolds number is calculated. The channels have constant mean aperture and two values $\zeta$=0.5 and 0.8 of the Hurst…
We use momentum transfer arguments to predict the friction factor $f$ in two-dimensional turbulent soap-film flows with rough boundaries (an analogue of three-dimensional pipe flow) as a function of Reynolds number Re and roughness $r$,…
We study the behavior of the pulse waves of water into a flexible tube for application to blood flow simulations. In pulse waves both fluid friction and wall viscosity are damping factors, and difficult to evaluate separately. In this…
Rapidity decorrelation in high energy heavy-ion collisions is one of the hot topics in understanding longitudinal dynamics of the quark gluon plasma (QGP). In this study we employ an integrated dynamical model with full three dimensional…
We extend the analysis of the friction factor for turbulent pipe flow reported by G. Gioia, P. Chakraborty and N. Goldenfeld (GCG) (G. Gioia and P. Chakraborty, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 044502 (2006), N. Goldenfeld, Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 044503…
We derive analytical expressions for the flow of Newtonian and power law fluids in elastic circularly-symmetric tubes based on a lubrication approximation where the flow velocity profile at each cross section is assumed to have its…
The influence of turbulent effects on a fluid flow through a (pseudo) porous media is studied by numerically solving the set of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the $\kappa$-$\epsilon$ model for turbulence. The spatial domains…
This paper presents a new theory of turbulence in time-independent non-Newtonian fluids. The wall layer is modelled in terms of unsteady exchange of viscous momentum between the wall and the main stream, following the classic visualisation…
Fluctuation and correlation observables are often measured using multi-particle correlation methods and therefore mutually probe the origins of genuine correlations present in multi-particle distribution functions. We investigate the common…
We study, by means of extensive direct numerical simulations, the turbulent flow produced by a two-dimensional cellular forcing in a cubic box with periodic boundary conditions. In spite of the strong anisotropy of the forcing, we find that…
