The interaction between G¨ortler vortices and Tollmien-Schlichting waves is studied with a spatial, non-parallel model based on the Parabolized Stability Equations. A reassessment of previous results obtained with temporal, parallel models is performed showing that the main conclusions obtained with those models are valid but the parallel flow assumption does influence the results. New results not previously available in the literature for Tollmien-Schlichting wave amplitudes of the same order of magnitude as the vortices are also presented.

COB246 A NEW LAW OF THE WALL FORMULATION

Atila P. Silva Freire

Mechanical Engineering Program (COPPE/UFR,I), C.P. 68503, 21945-970 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The present, work introduces a new expression for the velocity profile in the near wall region of a turbulent boundary layer. The new theory uses asymptotic arguments and considerations of the mixing length type to find a local analytical solution which presents the correct asymptotic behavior both close to wall in the laminar sub-layer and in the logarithmic region of the flow. Next, heuristic arguments are evoked to add a damping function to the local solution. This function provides an excellent correction to the original analytical solution, furnishing a solution valid for the whole range of inner scales. The resulting expression is compared with ten other different, formulations for the problem. The results are also compared with some experimental test cases.

COB248 CHARACTERISTICS OF A TURBULENT-BOUNDARY LAYER WHEN SUBJECTED TO A STEP CHANGE IN SURFACE ROUGHNESS AND TEMPERATURE

Mila R. Avelino, Philippe P. M. Menut and Atila P. Silva Freire

Mechanical Engineering Program (COPPE/UFRJ), C.P. 68503, 21945-970 Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

The present work uses asymptotic and Heuristic arguments to develop a theory for the description of turbulent boundary layer flows over surfaces with a step change in roughness and in temperature. Based on the concept of the displacement in origin, the theory proposes a new expression for the near wall logarithmic temperature profile, which is then used as a boundary condition for a k-Î modeling of the external flow. The results are tested for a sea breeze that advances over dry land. Simulations of velocity and temperature profiles, and of skin-friction and of Stanton number profiles are presented.

The present work advances a new algebraic turbulence model for the description of bubble plumes. The model is based on the eddy viscosity and bubble diffusity concepts, resorting to dimensional arguments and experimental data to arrive at functional relationships involving only primitive variables of the flow. The model is an improvement over other algebraic models in literature, providing better results at lower computational cost. The results include predictions of the velocity profiles, of the void fraction and of the plume radius. The four constants that appear in the theory are determined through comparison with the data of Milgram and Van Houten(1982) and of Milgram(1983), for depths ranging from 6 to 20 meters. The agreement is shown to be very good.

COB250 FURTHER RESULTS ON THE ASYMPTOTIC BEHAVIOUR OF INTERACTING TURBULENT BOUNDARY LAYERS AND SHOCK WAVES

The present work makes a critical compilation of some experimental data to corroborate the p4ysical Validity of the theoretical asymptotic structure resulting from an application of Kaplun limits to the shock-wave/turbulent, boundary la.yer interaction problem. The interaction of a shock wave with a turbulent boundary layer is a very complex and rich phenomenon, where the steep pressure gradient imposed to the boundary layer by the shock wave gives rise to an inviscid interaction process in a region which would be otherwise viscous dominated. Thus, in a classical three deck asymptotic model of the compressible turbulent boundary lekyer (Silva Freire(1989a)), the turbulent region must change so as to comply to this constraint. In far-t, according to the single limit concept of Kaplun, in the interaction region the turbulent region completely disappears. The new arising asymptotic structure consists then of two distinct regions: the wall viscous region and the outer inviscid region. Here, these two regions are clearly identified by a careful processing of some experimental data. Considering some flow measurements, one is capable of evaluating the dominant terms in the Navier-Stokes, from which the asymptotic structure can then be ascertained. With the new asymptotic structure, a simplified theory can then be developed for the inner regions of the flow. The results obtained through the simplified theory are compared with calculations provided by a full Navier-Stokes code and with some experimental data for velocity, pressure and skin-friction. The full N-S code uses a finite difference explicit scheme. In the numerical simulation, the turbulent shear stresses are evaluated through an algebraic model and a half-equation differential model.

Abstract

This paper presents results of an experimental study of the transition in boundary layers. The experiments

were conducted in a low-turbulence wind tunnel. The process was triggered by a three-dimensional

Tollmien-Schlichting wavetrain excited by a harmonic point source in the plate. Hot-wire anemometry

was used to measure the signal and investigate the nonlinear regime of these waves. It was observed

that the three-dimensional wavetrain behaved very differently from two-dimensional ones. In particular,

it did not involve the growth of subharmonics or higher harmonics. The first nonlinear signal to appear

was a mean flow distortion. This had a spanwise structure consisting of regions of positive and negative

mean distortion distributed like streaks, which became more complex as the nonlinearity developed.

Elsewhere studies have revealed the existence of streak-structures in turbulent flow. It is conjectured

that the current experiments may provide a link between early wave-like instabilities and some coherent

structures of turbulent boundary layers.

Laminar-turbulent transition, hydrodynamic instability, boundary layer, hot-wire anemometry, nonlinear

A new set of self-similar solutions of a compressible laminar boundary layer is used for air as perfect gas and where the viscosity is a power function of the temperature. Modified Levy-Mangler and Dorodnitsyn-Howarth transformations are presented to solve the flow in a thin laminar boundary layer with no external pressure gradients on a smooth flat plate. This results in an explicit relation between the stream function and the enthalpy fields described by a closed coupled system of nonlinear ordinary differential equations. In the present work boundary layer flows with external Mach numbers up to 15 are studied and the skin friction and heat transfer coefficients for a hot wall case are presented. The present solution methodology provides a straight forward way of comparing results using the viscosity-temperature linear relation, Sutherland’s law and the relation according to the kinetic theory. Also, the results may provide important data needed for the design of future hypersonic vehicles.

This work studies the solar panels deployment of the Chinese-Brazilian satellite CBERS. The problem solution demands some deployment tests and the development of two different dynamic simulation models: one more complex related to the laboratory and another one related to orbit conditions. This work begins with a description of the deployment mechanisms, of the test device and of the deployment dynamic problem. The problem formulation is discussed and the use of a computer package for dynamic analysis of mechanisms is justified. The dynamic simulation models, the test results, the adjustment of the model parameters to fit the simulation to the test results, the laboratory and the in-orbit simulation results are presented. The importance of the inclusion in the dynamic models of the solar panel synchronizing mechanisms, of the aerodynamic forces of the solar panels due to the laboratory atmosphere, and of the solar panels initial deformations are discussed.

Keywords: Satellite, solar array deployment, dynamic simulation model, dynamic of multibody systems, model adjustment.

This paper presents an analytical solution for the concentration boundary layer along free surfaces in a turbulent flow, obtained by convenient approximations for the turbulent diffusivity in this region and by a particular nondimensionalization applied to the governing equation for the mass transfer. The later produced an equation describing mass transfer at the gas-liquid interface which leads to a general solution for the geometry under study. The analysis of mass flux through the interface by an approximate solution permitted obtaining an expression that involves classical dimensionless coefficients for the problem of mass transfer such as Reynolds, Schmidt and Sherwood numbers. This expression relates the Sherwood number in a traditional form to the other two dimensionless parameters.

A numerical study was performed on the augmentation of the heat transfer for internal flow through flat plates containing transversal fins. The duct width and the fins spacing were kept constant and 17 fins were affixed along the heated plate side. Two fin heights were simulated and the heat transfer rate was compared with the smooth duct case. Numerical results obtained for the mean heat transfer coefficients and experimental data showed good agreement. Also reported was the grid refinement effect on the numerical solution accuracy.

COB1011 AN ASSESSMENT OF THE RNG k-e TURBULENCE MODEL APPLIED TO THE FLOW IN RADIAL DIFFUSERS

The present work considers the turbulent flow modeling in a radial diffuser with axial feeding using the RNG k-e model of Orzag et al. (1993). The model has been recommended for flows including features such as stagnation and recirculation regions, curvature and adverse pressure gradients (all of them are not properly taken into account by the standard k-e model). The flow through radial diffusers possesses all the aforementioned flow features and therefore is a good test case to further assess the RNG k-e model. Numerical results of pressure distribution along the surface of one of the diffuser disks are compared to experimental data and show that the RNG k-e model can predict quite successfully the flow.

In this work a new algebraic turbulence closure model, developed for adverse pressure gradient boundary layer, is presented. A new characteristic velocity which takes into account the effects of the pressure gradient as well as the influence of the shear stress at the wall is also presented. A comparison with experimental data clearly shows that the proposed model is superior to the Cebeci-Smith one in treating separating flows.

In this work, an alternative approach for loss calculation in external flows is proposed, by applying Kaplun limits to the Navier-Stokes equations, obtaining a generalized boundary layer formulation. It is shown that this alternative formulation can be reduced into a ‘quasi similar’ differential equation that can be solved as an ordinary one. Numerical solutions of this equation are presented showing that it contains the Falkner - Skan equation as a particular case.

Coherent vortices in solid propellant rockets motors are investigated by numerical experimentation, via full Navier-Stokes solution in two-dimensional configurations and Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) in a three-dimensional one. Particular attention is paid to the vortex shedding phenomena of Kelvin-Helmholtz vortices and their interaction with the chamber's acoustic. The LES results show that streamwise secondary vortices of mixing layers and Dean-G¨ortler type vortices may be also present in these kind of geometries.
