This paper report on the design of an experiment to establish an experimental self-similar adverse pressure gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer (TBL) flow at the verge of separation in order to characterise its statistical structure and…
The convection velocity ($U_C$) of turbulent structures has been studied in adverse-pressure-gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) for a wide range of Reynolds numbers $Re_\tau = 1400 - 4000$. The study is based on estimation of…
Two direct numerical simulation (DNS) databases are investigated to understand the effect of the outer-layer turbulence on the inner layer's structures and energy transfer mechanisms. The first DNS database is the non-equilibrium…
This study establishes a symmetry-based framework to quantify non-equilibrium processes in complex pressure gradient (PG) turbulent boundary layers (TBLs), using a Lie-group-informed dilation-symmetry-breaking formalism. We derive a…
A century after Prandtl's mixing length hypothesis, full-profile scaling of the mixing length in pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers (PG TBLs) remains debated, especially for adverse pressure gradients (APGs). This work presents a…
Coherent motions associated with extreme wall shear stress events are investigated for adverse pressure gradient turbulent boundary layers (APG-TBLs). The analyses are performed using wall-resolved large eddy simulations of a NACA0012…
Systematic study of the existing statistical data from direct numerical simulations (DNS) lead to a logical and important classification of generic turbulent boundary layers (TBL), namely Type A,B and C TBL, based on the distribution…
The statistical properties are presented for the direct numerical simulation (DNS) of a self-similar adverse pressure gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer (TBL) at the verge of separation. The APG TBL has a momentum thickness based…
An asymptotic $-1/2$ power-law scaling and a semi-empirical finite-$Re$ model were recently presented by Dixit et al. (2020) for skin friction in zero-pressure-gradient (ZPG) turbulent boundary layers (TBLs). In this work, a new derivation…
A robust composite mean velocity profile is developed for turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) subjected to adverse pressure gradients (APGs), extending the composite formulation for generic pressure-gradient TBLs proposed by…
We investigate a turbulent boundary layer (TBL) with uniform pressure force variations, focusing on understanding its response to local pressure force, local pressure force variation (local disequilibrating effect), and upstream history.…
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…
With the availability of new high-Reynolds-number ($Re$) databases of turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) it has been possible to identify in detail certain regions of the boundary layer with more complex behavior. In this study we consider a…
An investigation of turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) is presented for a NACA0012 airfoil at angles of attack 9 and 12 deg. Wall-resolved large eddy simulations (LES) are conducted for a freestream Mach number M = 0.2 and chord-based…
We present an analytical model for the time-developing turbulent boundary layer (TD-TBL) over a flat plate. The model provides explicit formulae for the temporal behavior of the wall-shear stress and both the temporal and spatial…
When turbulent boundary layer flows encounter abrupt roughness changes, an Internal Boundary Layer (IBL) forms. Equilibrium theory breaks down in the nonequilibrium IBL, which may extend O(10) km for natural atmospheric flows. Here, we find…
Reynolds-number effects in the adverse-pressure-gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer (TBL) developing on the suction side of a NACA4412 wing section are assessed in the present work. To this end, we analyze four cases at Reynolds numbers…
We propose a theory for predicting the mean velocity and Reynolds shear and normal stresses profiles in the wake region of equilibrium adverse pressure-gradient (PG, APG) turbulent boundary layers (TBLs). Firstly, we explore the PG-induced…
In this study, a new well-resolved large-eddy-simulation (LES) of an incompressible near-equilibrium adverse-pressure-gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer (TBL) over a flat plate is presented. In this simulation, we have established a…
Non-stationarity is the rule in the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL). Under such conditions, the flow may experience departures from equilibrium with the underlying surface stress, misalignment of shear stresses and strain rates, and…
