Understanding the interactions between hydrogen flame and turbulent vortices is important for developing the next-generation carbon neutral combustion systems. In the present work, we perform several direct numerical simulation (DNS) cases…
Numerical simulations of turbulent round jets, using explicit-filtered LES technique, are performed, for three different Reynolds numbers(Re = 3600, 88000, 400000), to understand the Reynolds number effect on subsonic jets with Mach number…
At high incidence, low-aspect-ratio wings present a unique set of aerodynamic characteristics, including flow separation, vortex shedding, and unsteady force production. Furthermore, low-aspect ratio wings exhibit a highly impactful tip…
In light of recent renewed interest in streaks in turbulent jets, the current work explores their coexistence with vortex rings in the near field of turbulent round jets. A Reynolds number, $Re=1.5 \times 10^5$ jet is studied at two…
This study investigates a mechanism of controlling separated flows around an airfoil using a synthetic jet (SJ). A large-eddy simulation (LES) was performed for a leading-edge separation flow around a NACA0015 airfoil at the chord Reynolds…
Axis switching of a jet ejected from a rectangular nozzle affects flow mixing characteristics. To elucidate such a mixing mechanism, the axis switching and vortex structure deformation should be investigated in detail. This study performed…
The interaction between a vortex and an impacting body which is oriented normally to it is complex due to the interaction of inviscid and viscous three-dimensional mechanisms. To model this process, direct numerical simulations of a thin…
Torque measurements in Taylor-Couette flow, with large radius ratio and large aspect ratio, over a range of velocities up to a Reynolds number of 24 000 are presented. Following a specific procedure, nine states with distinct number of…
This study employs an improved volume of fluid method and adaptive mesh refinement algorithm to numerically investigate the internal jet-like mixing upon the coalescence of two initially stationary droplets of unequal sizes. The emergence…
An improved understanding of how vortices develop and propagate under pulsatile flow can shed important light on the mixing and transport processes including the transition to turbulent regime occurring in such systems. For example, the…
In this paper we perform Direct Statistical Simulations of a model of two-dimensional flow that exhibits a transition from jets to vortices. The model employs two-scale Kolmogorov forcing, with energy injected directly into the zonal mean…
Dragonfly beats its wings independently, resulting in its superior maneuverability. Depending on the magnitude of phase difference between the fore- and hind-wings of dragonfly, the vortical structures and their interaction with wings…
This fluid dynamics video provides sample experimental results focusing on the interactions of shear layer vortices with the trailing corner in a 2D open cavity shear layer. These interactions were investigated experimentally in a water…
Experiments are performed to investigate the interaction of a vortex ring (Reynolds number based on circulation (Re_Gamma = 10500) with perforated surface (open area ratio, phi_1 = 0.24 and phi_2 = 0.44) with different included angles…
The vortex dynamics resulting from the interaction of synthetic jets with turbulent boundary layers was investigated experimentally using stereoscopic particle image velocimetry (SPIV). Three aspect ratio 18 rectangular orifice geometries…
At high Reynolds number, the interaction between two vortex tubes leads to intense velocity gradients, which are at the heart of fluid turbulence. This vorticity amplification comes about through two different instability mechanisms of the…
We investigate the spatial distributions and production mechanisms of vorticity and turbulent kinetic energy around a finite NACA 0018 wing with square wingtip profile at $Re_c=10^4$ and $10^{\circ}$ angle of attack with the aid of Direct…
For low-Reynolds number shear-flows of neutrally-buoyant suspensions, the shear stress is often modeled using an effective viscosity that depends only on the solid fraction. As the Reynolds number ($Re$) is increased and inertia becomes…
Shearing and rotational forces in fluids can significantly alter the transport of momentum.A numerical investigation was undertaken to study the role of these forces using plane Couette flow subject to rotation about an axis perpendicular…
A corrugated structure, rather than a smooth surface, is a characteristic feature of insect wings (e.g., dragonfly wings), which enhances their aerodynamic performance at low Reynolds numbers ($Re \simeq O(10^3)$). However, the mechanisms…
