Modelling friction and heat transfer in turbulent forced convection over porous lattices

Aneek Chakraborty, Stefan Hickel, Davide Modesti

We perform direct numerical simulations (DNS) to investigate how cubic-lattice porous substrates influence momentum and heat transfer in turbulent channel flows. The simulations sp…

Physics-Informed Acoustic Liner Optimization: Balancing Drag and Noise

Haris Shahzad, Stefan Hickel, Davide Modesti

We present pore-resolved Direct Numerical Simulations (DNS) of turbulent flows grazing over acoustic liners with aerodynamically and/or acoustically optimized orifice configuration…

Friction and heat transfer in forced air convection with variable physical properties

Davide Modesti, Sergio Pirozzoli

We establish a theoretical framework for predicting friction and heat transfer coefficients in variable-properties forced air convection. Drawing from concepts in high-speed wall t…

Mean temperature profiles in turbulent internal flows

Sergio Pirozzoli, Davide Modesti

We derive explicit formulas for the mean profiles of temperature (modeled as a passive scalar) in forced turbulent convection, as a function of the Reynolds and Prandtl numbers. Th…

High-speed turbulent flows towards the exascale: STREAmS-2 porting and performance

Srikanth Sathyanarayana, Matteo Bernardini, Davide Modesti +2

Exascale High Performance Computing (HPC) represents a tremendous opportunity to push the boundaries of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), but despite the consolidated trend towar…

Turbulence and added drag over acoustic liners

Haris Shahzad, Stefan Hickel, Davide Modesti

We present pore-resolved direction numerical simulations (DNS) of turbulent flows grazing over perforated plates, that closely resemble the acoustic liners found on aircraft engine…
