Turbulent flow over transitionally rough surfaces with varying roughness densities
M. MacDonald, L. Chan, D. Chung +2
We investigate rough-wall turbulent flows through direct numerical simulations of flow over three-dimensional transitionally rough sinusoidal surfaces. The roughness Reynolds numbe…
Direct numerical simulation of high aspect ratio spanwise-aligned bars
M. MacDonald, A. Ooi, R. García-Mayoral +2
We conduct minimal-channel direct numerical simulations of turbulent flow over two-dimensional rectangular bars aligned in the spanwise direction. This roughness has been often des…
Characterizing the turbulent drag properties of rough surfaces with a Taylor--Couette setup
Pieter Berghout, Pim A. Bullee, Thomas Fuchs +5
Wall-roughness induces extra drag in wall-bounded turbulent flows. Mapping any given roughness geometry to its fluid dynamic behaviour has been hampered by the lack of accurate and…
The smooth-wall-like behaviour of turbulence over drag-altering surfaces: a unifying virtual-origin framework
Joseph I. Ibrahim, Garazi Gómez-de-Segura, Daniel Chung +1
We conduct direct simulations of turbulent channels imposing different virtual origins for all three velocities using Robin, slip-like boundary conditions to study the effect of di…
Calculation of the mean velocity profile for strongly turbulent Taylor--Couette flow and arbitrary radius ratios
Pieter Berghout, Roberto Verzicco, Richard J. A. M. Stevens +2
Taylor--Couette (TC) flow is the shear-driven flow between two coaxial independently rotating cylinders. In recent years, high-fidelity simulations and experiments revealed the sha…
