Composite active drag control in turbulent channel flows

Jie Yao, Xi Chen, Fazle Hussain

A composite drag control (CDC) combining the opposition (OC) and spanwise opposed wall-jet forcing (SOJF) methods is studied in a turbulent channel flow via direct numerical simula…

Spectral link of the generalized Townsend-Perry constants in turbulent boundary layers

Björn Birnir, Luiza Angheluta, John Kaminsky +1

We propose a minimal spectral theory for boundary layer turbulence that captures very well the profile of the mean square velocity fluctuations in the stream-wise direction, and gi…

Boundary layer structure in turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection in a slim box

Hong-Yue Zou, Wen-Feng Zhou, Xi Chen +3

The logarithmic law of mean temperature profile has been observed in different regions in Rayleigh-Bénard turbulence. However, how thermal plumes correlate to the log law of temper…
