This study explores the effect of friction Reynolds number ($Re_\tau \approx 3{,}000$--$13{,}000$) on secondary flows in three-dimensional turbulent boundary layers induced by spanwise surface heterogeneity. Using a combination of…
This paper presents an experimental study on the transition from smooth to rough walls, and back to the smooth one, in turbulent closed-conduit flows. These transitions cause a shift on flow velocity profiles that changes their parameters…
Several time-resolved fluid dynamics videos of turbulent channels from $\mathrm{Re}_\tau=180$ to $\mathrm{Re}_\tau=4000$ are presented. The videos show the temporal evolution of sweeps (bluish) and ejections (reddish) in one half of the…
Spatial and spectral energy exchanges associated with the turbulence kinetic energy per unit mass, or half-trace of the velocity covariance tensor, are studied in an anisothermal low Mach number turbulent channel flow. The temperatures of…
This paper investigates the Reynolds number dependence of a turbulent mixing layer evolving from the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability using a series of direct numerical simulations of a well-defined narrowband initial condition for a range of…
Direct numerical simulations of turbulent pipe flow with transverse wall oscillation (WWO) and with no transverse wall oscillation (NWO) are carried out at friction Reynolds numbers Re{\tau} = 170, 360, and 720. The period and amplitude of…
Contrasting with free shear flows presenting velocity profiles with inflection points which cascade to turbulence in a relatively mild way, wall bounded flows are deprived of (inertial) instability modes at low Reynolds numbers and become…
This study presents an experimental dataset documenting the evolution of a turbulent boundary layer downstream of a rough-to-smooth surface transition. To investigate the effect of upstream flow conditions, two groups of experiments are…
We address the Reynolds-number dependence of the turbulent skin-friction drag reduction induced by streamwise-travelling waves of spanwise wall oscillations. The study relies on direct numerical simulations of drag-reduced flows in a plane…
Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of turbulent channel flow at a shear Reynolds number of $Re_{*}=360$ for Newtonian and Herschel-Bulkley fluids in smooth and rough channels has been performed. The rough surface was made of irregular…
The Reynolds number provides a characterization of the transition to turbulent flow, with wide application in classical fluid dynamics. Identifying such a parameter in superfluid systems is challenging due to their fundamentally inviscid…
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 investigate rough-wall turbulent flows through direct numerical simulations of flow over three-dimensional transitionally rough sinusoidal surfaces. The roughness Reynolds number is fixed at $k^+=10$, where $k$ is the sinusoidal…
Very recently, a defect model which depicts the growth tendency of the near-wall peak of the streamwise turbulence intensity has been developed (Chen $\&$ Sreenivasan, J. Fluid Mech. (2021), vol.908, R3). Based on the finiteness of the…
Pore-resolved direct numerical simulations of turbulent open channel flow are performed comparing the structure and dynamics of turbulence over impermeable rough and smooth walls to a porous sediment bed at permeability Reynolds number…
Abrupt transition to turbulence may occur in pipe and channel flows at moderate flow rates, an unexpected event according to linear stability theory, and has been an open problem in fluid dynamics for more than a century. Extensive…
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 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…
Processing the data from a large variety of zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer flows shows that the Reynolds-number-dependent scaling law, which the present authors obtained earlier for pipes, gives an accurate description of the…
Direct Numerical Simulations of turbulent channel flows at friction Reynolds number 550, 1000, 1500, are used to analyse the turbulent production, transfer and dissipation mechanisms in the compound space of scales and wall-distances by…
