An approximate method to compute mean velocity profiles in turbulent flows is developed. This approach is based on the equation connecting the Reynolds stress and mean velocity. By using the measured values of pressure drop and average…
In this study, we performed highly resolved large-eddy simulations (LES) to investigate the influence of variable properties on the forced turbulent convection in a channel. The constant heat flux boundary condition permits wall temperature…
In molten-salt-fuelled reactor systems, the fluid may experience substantial volumetric heat generation in addition to heat removal from surrounding structures. To quantify these effects, we investigate developed channel flow with internal…
Direct numerical simulation of a turbulent channel flow with heat transfer was performed at very low Reynolds numbers. Two different thermal boundary conditions were studied, and temperature was considered as a passive scalar. The…
Supersonic turbulent channels subjected to sudden spanwise acceleration at initial friction Reynolds numbers of approximately 500 and different Mach numbers are studied through direct numerical simulations. The response to the spanwise…
We study turbulent flows in planar channels with unstable thermal stratification, using direct numerical simulations in a wide range of Reynolds and Rayleigh numbers and reaching flow conditions which are representative of asymptotic…
The behaviour of the turbulent Prandtl number ($Pr_t$) for buoyancy-affected flows near a vertical surface is investigated as an extension study of {Gibson \& Leslie, \emph{Int. Comm. Heat Mass Transfer}, Vol. 11, pp. 73-84 (1984)}. By…
Direct numerical simulations are performed of turbulent forced convection in a half channel flow with wall oscillating either as a spanwise plane oscillation or to generate a streamwise travelling wave. The friction Reynolds number is fixed…
We report the statistical properties of temperature and thermal energy dissipation rate in low-Prandtl number turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection. High resolution two-dimensional direct numerical simulations were carried out for the…
The design of film cooling systems relies heavily on Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations, which solve for mean quantities and model all turbulent scales. Most turbulent heat flux models, which are based on isotropic diffusion…
We report on experimental determinations of the temperature field in the interior (bulk) of turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection for a cylindrical sample with aspect ratio (diameter over height) of 0.50, both in the classical and in the…
Anomalous correlation functions of the temperature field in two-dimensional turbulent convection are shown to be universal with respect to the choice of external sources. Moreover, they are equal to the anomalous correlations of the…
We investigate the structures of the near-plate velocity and temperature profiles at different horizontal positions along the conducting bottom (and top) plate of a Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard convection cell, using two-dimensional (2D) numerical…
Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) turbulence models (such as k-\epsilon models) are still widely used for engineering applications because of their relatively simplicity and robustness. In fully developed plane channel flow (i.e. the…
We present a framework to calculate the scale-resolved turbulent Prandtl number $Pr_t$ for the well-mixed and highly inertial bulk of a turbulent Rayleigh-B\'{e}nard mesoscale convection layer at a molecular Prandtl number $Pr=10^{-3}$. It…
We compute fully local boundary layer scales in three-dimensional turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection. These scales are directly connected to the highly intermittent fluctuations of the fluxes of momentum and heat at the isothermal top and…
The work considers a fully turbulent flow with heat transfer in a channel half-filled with an array of cubes based on the work of Breugem and Boersma (2005) and Chandesris et al. (2013), at $\mathrm{Re}_\mathrm{bulk} = 5485$ and three…
We report results for the temperature profiles of turbulent Rayleigh-B\'enard convection (RBC) in the interior of a cylindrical sample of aspect ratio $\Gamma \equiv D/L = 0.50$ ($D$ and $L$ are the diameter and height respectively).…
We study Rayleigh-Benard convection in the high-Rayleigh-number and high-Prandtl-number regime, i.e., we consider a fluid in a container that is exposed to strong heating of the bottom and cooling of the top plate in the absence of inertia…
The logarithmic law of mean temperature profile has been observed in different regions in Rayleigh-B\'enard turbulence. However, how thermal plumes correlate to the log law of temperature and how the velocity profile changes with pressure…
