First-order buoyancy correction of modal instabilities in stratified boundary layers
Pietro Carlo Boldini, Ryo Hirai, Benjamin Bugeat +1
We present a perturbation-based framework that captures buoyancy effects on modal instabilities in stratified boundary-layer flows within the fully compressible, non-Oberbeck-Bouss…

Direct numerical simulation of complete transition to turbulence with a fluid at supercritical pressure
Pietro Carlo Boldini, Benjamin Bugeat, Jurriaan W. R. Peeters +2
The objective of this work is to investigate the unexplored laminar-to-turbulent transition of a heated flat-plate boundary layer with a fluid at supercritical pressure. Two temper…

Direct Numerical Simulations of K-type transition in a flat-plate boundary layer with supercritical fluids
Pietro Carlo Boldini, Benjamin Bugeat, Jurriaan W. R. Peeters +2
We investigate the controlled K-type breakdown of a flat-plate boundary-layer with highly non-ideal supercritical fluid at a reduced pressure of . Direct numeric…
