We compute fully local boundary layer scales in three-dimensional turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection. These scales are directly connected to the highly intermittent fluctuations of the fluxes of momentum and heat at the isothermal top and…
This paper numerically investigates the shear flow between double concentric spherical boundaries rotating differentially, so-called spherical Couette flow, under unstable thermal stratification, focusing on the boundary of the…
Depth averaged conservation equations are written for granular surface flows. Their application to the study of steady surface flows in a rotating drum allows to find experimentally the constitutive relations needed to close these equations…
Turbulence enhances the wall shear stress in boundary layers, significantly increasing the drag on streamlined bodies. Other flow features such as freestream pressure gradients and streamwise boundary layer growth also strongly influence…
Direct numerical simulations of turbulent Taylor-Couette flow are performed up to inner cylinder Reynolds numbers of {Re_i=10^5} for a radius ratio of {\eta=r_i/r_o=0.714} between the inner and outer cylinder. With increasing {Re_i}, the…
We study shear banding flows in models of wormlike micelles or polymer solutions, and explore the effects of different boundary conditions for the viscoelastic stress. These are needed because the equations of motion are inherently…
The turbulent boundary layer (TBL) development over an air cavity is experimentally studied using planar particle image velocimetry. The present flow, representative of those typically encountered in ship air lubrication, resembles the…
Recent theoretical results together with established theory have identified the displacement thickness and the velocity at the boundary layer edge as similarity scaling parameter candidates for the wall-bounded turbulent boundary layer. In…
Laminar natural convection at unity Schmidt number over a horizontal surface with a weak normal velocity at the wall is studied using an integral analysis. To characterise the strength of the blowing, we define a non-dimensional parameter…
The study of turbulent boundary layer flow holds significant importance in urban climate research, particularly concerning numerical simulation studies where it serves as a crucial inflow boundary condition. However, understanding the…
Boundary layers in turbulent flows require fine grid spacings near the walls which depend on the choice of turbulence model. To satisfy these requirements a semi-structured mesh is generally used in this area with orthogonal and layered…
Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are performed for two wall-bounded flow configurations: laminar Couette flow at $Re=740$ and turbulent channel flow at $Re_{\tau}=180$, where $\tau$ is the shear stress at the wall. The top wall is smooth…
In this paper, we investigate the effect of boundary surface roughness on numerical simulations of incompressible fluid flow past a cylinder in two and three spatial dimensions furnished with slip boundary conditions. The governing…
This study focuses on the modeling and dynamics of gravity-driven, axisymmetric thin liquid film flow along a conical surface. Spatial linear stability analysis is performed on the basis of a Benney-type equation derived for the present…
This paper presents novel correlations to predict the drag, lift, and torque coefficients of axi-symmetric non-spherical rod-like particles in a wall-bounded linear shear flow. The particle position and orientation relative to the wall are…
We report on a numerical study of the shear flow of a simple two-dimensional model of a granular material under controlled normal stress between two parallel smooth, frictional walls, moving with opposite velocities $\pm$V . Discrete…
In order to study the effects of pressure gradients, flow expansion, and recompression on the stability of hypersonic boundary-layers, axisymmetric cone-cylinder-flare configurations have been specifically designed for wind tunnel…
Curved free shear layers emerge in many engineering problems involving complex flow geometries, such as the flow over a backward facing step, flows with wall injection in a boundary layer, the flow inside side-dump combustors, or wakes…
The problem of a steady forced convection thermal boundary-layer past a flat plate with a prescribed surface heat flux is investigated both analytically and numerically. In view of the present formulation, the governing equations reduce to…
In this paper we revise the similarity theory for the stably stratified atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), formulate analytical approximations for the wind velocity and potential temperature profiles over the entire ABL, validate them…
