1 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall Chapter 9 Flow over Immersed Bodies Fluid flows are broadly categorized: 1. Internal flows such as ducts/pipes, turbomachinery, open channel/river, which are bounded by walls or fluid interfaces: Chapter 8.. External flows such as flow around vehicles and structures, which are characterized by unbounded or partially bounded domains and flow field decomposition into viscous and inviscid regions: Chapter 9. a. Boundary layer flow: high Reynolds number flow around streamlines bodies without flow separation. Re 1: low Re flow (creeping or Stokes flow) Re > 1,000: Laminar BL Re > (Re crit ): Turbulent BL b. Bluff body flow: flow around bluff bodies with flow separation.

2 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall Free Shear flows such as jets, wakes, and mixing layers, which are also characterized by absence of walls and development and spreading in an unbounded or partially bounded ambient domain: advanced topic, which also uses boundary layer theory. Basic Considerations Drag is decomposed into form and skin-friction contributions: C D 1 1 ρv S A ( p p ) n îda + τ S w C Dp C f τ îda

4 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall Qualitative Description of the Boundary Layer Flow-field regions for high Re flow about slender bodies:

5 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall τ w shear stress τ w rate of strain (velocity gradient) u µ y y 0 large near the surface where fluid undergoes large changes to satisfy the no-slip condition Boundary layer theory and equations are a simplified form of the complete NS equations and provides τ w as well as a means of estimating C form. Formally, boundary-layer theory represents the asymptotic form of the Navier-Stokes equations for high Re flow about slender bodies. The NS equations are nd order nonlinear PDE and their solutions represent a formidable challenge. Thus, simplified forms have proven to be very useful. Near the turn of the last century (1904), Prandtl put forth boundary-layer theory, which resolved D Alembert s paradox: for inviscid flow drag is zero. The theory is restricted to unseparated flow. The boundary-layer equations are singular at separation, and thus, provide no information at or beyond separation. However, the requirements of the theory are met in many practical situations and the theory has many times over proven to be invaluable to modern engineering.

6 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall The assumptions of the theory are as follows: Variable order of magnitude u U O(1) v δ<<l O(ε) ε δ/l x 1/L O(1) y 1/δ O(ε -1 ) ν δ ε The theory assumes that viscous effects are confined to a thin layer close to the surface within which there is a dominant flow direction (x) such that u U and v << u. However, gradients across δ are very large in order to satisfy the no slip condition; thus, >>. y x Next, we apply the above order of magnitude estimates to the NS equations.

8 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall Some important aspects of the boundary-layer equations: 1) the y-momentum equation reduces to p 0 y i.e., p p e constant across the boundary layer from the Bernoulli equation: edge value, i.e., 1 inviscid flow value! pe + ρu e constant pe Ue i.e., ρue x x Thus, the boundary-layer equations are solved subject to a specified inviscid pressure distribution ) continuity equation is unaffected 3) Although NS equations are fully elliptic, the boundary-layer equations are parabolic and can be solved using marching techniques 4) Boundary conditions u v 0 y 0 u U e y δ + appropriate initial x i

9 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall There are quite a few analytic solutions to the boundarylayer equations. Also numerical techniques are available for arbitrary geometries, including both two- and threedimensional flows. Here, as an example, we consider the simple, but extremely important case of the boundary layer development over a flat plate. Quantitative Relations for the Laminar Boundary Layer Laminar boundary-layer over a flat plate: Blasius solution (1908) student of Prandtl p Note: 0 x for a flat plate u v + 0 x y u u u u + v ν x y y u v y 0 u y δ We now introduce a dimensionless transverse coordinate and a stream function, i.e., U y η y νx δ ψ νxu f ( η)

Also, series solutions are possible. Interestingly, although simple in appearance no analytic solution has yet been found. Finally, it should be recognized that the Blasius solution is a similarity solution, i.e., the non-dimensional velocity profile f vs. η is independent of x. That is, by suitably scaling all the velocity profiles have neatly collapsed onto a single curve. Now, lets consider the characteristics of the Blasius solution: u U vs. y v U vs. y

No definitive values for turbulent conditions since depend on empirical data and turbulence modeling. Finally, composite formulas that take into account both the initial laminar boundary layer and subsequent turbulent boundary layer, i.e. in the transition region ( < Re L < ) where the laminar drag at the leading edge is an appreciable fraction of the total drag: CC ff RRee LL CC ff RRee LL 1440 RRee LL 1700 RRee LL

28 57:00 Mechanics of Fluids and Transport Processes Chapter 9 Professor Fred Stern Fall Inside the separation region: low-pressure, existence of recirculating/backflows viscous and rotational effects are the most significant! Important physics related to flow separation: Stall for airplane (Recall the movie you saw at CFD-PreLab!) Vortex shedding (Recall your work at CFD-Lab, AOA16! What did you see in your velocity-vector plot at the trailing edge of the air foil?)
