Widely used in hydraulics, the Colebrook equation for flow friction relates implicitly to the input parameters; the Reynolds number, and the relative roughness of inner pipe surface, with the output unknown parameter; the flow friction…
Drawing on an analogy to critical phenomena, it was shown that the Nikuradse turbulent friction factor ($f_t$) measurements in pipes of radius $R$ and wall roughness $r$ can be collapsed onto a one-dimensional curve expressed as a…
An experimental study was conducted in the CICLoPE long-pipe facility to investigate the correlation between wall-pressure and turbulent velocity fluctuations in the logarithmic region, at high friction Reynolds numbers ($4\,794 \lesssim…
Turbulence intensity profiles are compared for smooth- and rough-wall pipe flow measurements made in the Princeton Superpipe. The profile development in the transition from hydraulically smooth to fully rough flow displays a propagating…
The transitional and well-developed regimes of turbulent shear flows exhibit a variety of remarkable scaling laws that are only now beginning to be systematically studied and understood. In the first part of this article, we summarize…
This paper uses the estimates of phase-locked parameters at the onset of bursting presented in a companion paper to derive logarithmic correlations for turbulent friction factor losses in time-independent power law fluids. Two different…
Well-resolved direct numerical simulations (DNSs) have been performed of the flow in a smooth circular pipe of radius $R$ and axial length $10\pi R$ at friction Reynolds numbers up to $Re_\tau=5200$. Various turbulence statistics are…
Recently, Nagib et al (2024} utilized indicator functions of profiles of the streamwise normal stress to reveal the ranges of validity, in wall distance and Reynolds number, for each of two proposed models in DNS of channel and pipe flows.…
Recently, by analyzing the measurement data of Nikuradze, it has been proposed (N. Goldenfeld, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf{96}}, 044503, 2006) that the friction factor, $f$, of rough pipe flow obeys a scaling law in the turbulent regime. Here, we…
Modeling of wall-bounded turbulent flows is still an open problem in classical physics, with only modest progress made in the last few decades beyond the so-called `log law', which describes only the intermediate region in wall-bounded…
The classical experiments on turbulent friction in rough pipes were performed by J. Nikuradse in the 1930's. Seventy years later, they continue to defy theory. Here we model Nikuradse's experiments using the phenomenological theory of…
Empirical Colebrook equation from 1939 is still accepted as an informal standard to calculate friction factor during the turbulent flow through pipes from smooth with almost negligible relative roughness to the very rough inner surface. The…
We use momentum transfer arguments to predict the friction factor $f$ in two-dimensional turbulent soap-film flows with rough boundaries (an analogue of three-dimensional pipe flow) as a function of Reynolds number Re and roughness $r$,…
The impact of wall roughness on fully developed laminar pipe flow is investigated numerically. The roughness is comprised of square bars of varying size and pitch. Results show that the inverse relation between the friction factor and the…
We investigate viscous and non-viscous flow in two-dimensional self-affine fracture joints through direct numerical simulations of the Navier-Stokes equations. As a novel hydrodynamic feature of this flow system, we find that the effective…
The influence of turbulent effects on a fluid flow through a (pseudo) porous media is studied by numerically solving the set of Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations with the $\kappa$-$\epsilon$ model for turbulence. The spatial domains…
The simulation of turbulent flow requires many degrees of freedom to resolve all the relevant times and length scales. However, due to the dissipative nature of the Navier-Stokes equations, the long-term dynamics are expected to lie on a…
Suspensions of finite-size solid particles in a turbulent pipe flow are found in many industrial and technical flows. Due to the ample parameter space consisting of particle size, concentration, density and Reynolds number, a complete…
We study laminar, transitional and turbulent flow in wavy pipes using direct numerical simulations for bulk Reynolds numbers between 1-5300. Flow behaviors are analyzed in terms of the friction factor f and mean velocity statistics for…
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…
