The present study experimentally investigates the recovery of smooth-wall turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) following non-equilibrium pressure gradients (PGs). The imposed pressure gradient history (PGH) comprises favourable-adverse pressure…
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…
A numerical investigation of two locally applied drag reducing control schemes is carried out in the configuration of a spatially developing turbulent boundary layer (TBL). One control is designed to damp near-wall turbulence and the other…
The prediction of turbulent boundary layer (TBL) flow over a convex surface as in aircraft wings or gas turbine blades is a challenging problem. Finding a universal scaling law of turbulence statistics of TBLs over a wide range of adverse…
A flat plate turbulent boundary layer (TBL) is experimentally subjected to a family of 22 favorable-adverse pressure gradients (FAPGs) by using a ceiling panel of variable convex curvature. We define a FAPG as a sequence of streamwise…
We discuss a simple analytical model of the turbulent boundary layer (TBL) over flat plane. The model offers an analytical description of the profiles of mean velocity and turbulent activity in the entire boundary region, from the viscous…
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…
This study aims to isolate the three effects of the pressure force on the inner and outer layers: the local direct impact (characterized by the pressure gradient (PG) parameter, $\beta$), the local disequilibrating effect (represented here…
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…
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…
A wall-resolved large-eddy simulation (LES) of the fluid flow around a 30P30N airfoil is conducted at a Reynolds number of Rec=750,000 and an angle of attack (AoA) of 9 degrees. The simulation results are validated against experimental data…
This study investigates the spatial evolution of a zero pressure gradient turbulent boundary layer (TBL) imposed by a square-wave (SqW) of steady spanwise wall-forcing, which varies along the streamwise direction ($x$). The SqW wall-forcing…
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…
An essential feature of canonical zero-pressure-gradient (ZPG) turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) is that the mean streamwise velocity exhibits a logarithmic dependence on the wall-normal distance, known as the log law. In this study, we…
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…
The symmetries and similarities of the zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer (ZPGTBL) are investigated to derive the full set of similarity variables, to derive the similarity equations, and to obtain a higher-order approximate…
The pressure gradient has a significant influence on the mean-flow properties of turbulent boundary layers. Conventional analytical studies on PG turbulent boundary layers are conducted separately for the viscous sub-layer and overlap layer…
Our experiments evaluate the presence of history effects on wall shear stress in turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) subjected to five sequences of favorable and adverse pressure gradients (FAPGs) of increasing strength. Steady but spatially…
Turbulent boundary layers exhibit a universal structure which nevertheless is rather complex, being composed of a viscous sub-layer, a buffer zone, and a turbulent log-law region. In this letter we present a simple analytic model of…
