On the basis of (i) Particle Image Velocimetry data of a Turbulent Boundary Layer with large field of view and good spatial resolution and (ii) a mathematical relation between the energy spectrum and specifically modeled flow structures, we…
The attached-eddy model (AEM) predicts mean velocity and streamwise velocity variance profiles that follow a logarithmic shape in the overlap region of high Reynolds number wall-bounded turbulent flows. Moreover, the AEM coefficients are…
Scalings of the streamwise velocity energy spectra in turbulent boundary layers were considered in Part 1. A spectral decomposition analysis provided a means to separate out attached and non-attached eddy contributions and was used to…
Recent works on wall-bounded flows have corroborated the coexistence of wall-attached eddies, whose statistical features are predicted through Townsend's attached eddy hypothesis (AEH), and very-large-scale motions (VLSMs), which are not…
In wall-bounded turbulence, a multitude of coexisting turbulence structures form the streamwise velocity energy spectrum from the viscosity- to the inertia-dominated range of scales. Definite scaling-trends for streamwise spectra have…
Townsend (1976) proposed a structural model for the logarithmic layer (log-layer) of wall turbulence at high Reynolds numbers, where the dominant momentum-carrying motions are organised into a multi-scale population of eddies attached to…
Here we report the measurements of two-dimensional (2-D) spectra of the streamwise velocity ($u$) in a high Reynolds number turbulent boundary layer. A novel experiment employing multiple hot-wire probes was carried out at friction Reynolds…
Townsend's attached-eddy hypothesis (AEH) provides a theoretical description of turbulence statistics in the logarithmic region in terms of coherent motions that are self-similar with the wall-normal distance (y). Here, we show the…
Wall turbulence is a ubiquitous phenomenon in nature and engineering application, yet predicting such turbulence is difficult due to its complexity. High-Reynolds-number turbulence, which includes most practical flows, is particularly…
We propose a model for the streamwise velocity variance in wall-bounded turbulent flows. It hypothesizes that the wall-parallel motions of the attached eddies induce internal turbulent boundary layers. A logarithmic variance profile is…
We develop an enrichment wall-model within the spectral element method (SEM) framework for large-eddy simulations of wall-bounded flows. The method augments the polynomial solution in the wall-adjacent elements with an analytical…
Predictions of the spatial representation of instantaneous wall-bounded flows, via coherent structure-based models, are highly sensitive to the geometry of the representative structures employed by them. In this study, we propose a…
The behavior of velocity fluctuations near a wall has long fascinated the turbulence community, because the prevalent theoretical framework of an attached-eddy hierarchy appears to predict infinite intensities as the Reynolds number tends…
Wall-bounded turbulence is relevant for many engineering and natural science applications, yet there are still aspects of its underlying physics that are not fully understood, particularly at high Reynolds numbers. In this study, we…
We develop a new methodology to assess the streamwise inclination angles (SIAs) of the wall-attached eddies populating the logarithmic region with a given wall-normal height. To remove the influences originating from other scales on the SIA…
For wall-bounded turbulent flows, Townsend's attached eddy hypothesis proposes that the logarithmic layer is populated by a set of energetic and geometrically self-similar eddies. These eddies scale with a single length scale, their…
Wall-scaled (attached) eddies play a significant role in the overall drag experienced in high-Reynolds-number turbulent boundary layers (TBLs). This study aims to delve into the underlying mechanisms driving this phenomenon by dissecting…
A promising and cost-effective method for numerical simulation of high Re wall-bounded flows is wall-modeled large-eddy simulation. Most wall models are formulated from the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS). These RANS-based…
Motivated by the need to characterize the spatio-temporal structure of turbulence in wall-bounded flows, we study wavenumber-frequency spectra of the streamwise velocity component based on large-eddy simulation (LES) data. The LES data are…
The inner-outer interaction model (Marusic, Mathis & Hutchins, Science, vol. 329, 2010, 193-196) and the attached-eddy model (Townsend, Cambridge University Press, 1976) are two fundamental models describing the multi-scale turbulence…
