1 Turbulens Teori och modellering

2 Introduction Two questions: Why did you chose this course? What are your expectations?

3 Turbulence Theory and modelling Goals Understanding the phenomena that affects the transition from laminar to turbulent flow Knowledge about the theory for describing turbulent flow Knowledge about turbulence models applicability and limitations Ability to analyse a flow situation and chose a propper modelling approach accordingly

4 Turbulence Theory and modelling Goals Be able to describe the physical mechanisms of the transition from laminar to turbulent flow for a simple flow case Be able to explain Kolmogorov s theory, including the basic assumptions and the validity of the theory Be able to, from a phenomenological perspective, assess if a flow is turbulent Be able to explain some of the important and basic terms of the subject Be able to describe the character of the turbulence in different flow situations with respect to the properties and development of the turbulence, and explain how the differences between these flow situations are reflected in the modelling

5 Turbulence Theory and modelling Goals (continued) Be able to analyse a flow case and suggest a method for numerical simulation with respect to governing equations, possible simplifications and choice of turbulence model, and also to compare with alternative methods. Be able to scrutinise and from given criteria estimate the credibility of results from turbulent flow simulations Be able to actively participate in discussion of problems relevant for the subject Be able to present, both orally and in writing, a technical report containing analyses and choice of turbulence model

6 Turbulence Theory and modelling Examination and requirements To pass (grade 3) the following is required: Approved home works, lab-report and group study (GS) Participation in the computer exercises Oral exam for higher grade (grades 4 and 5) Participation in the laboratory exercise, computer exercises and the guest lecture is mandatory. The home works are handed in individially. However, you are alowed, even encouraged, to work in groups discussing the problems. The groups study is to be presented both in writing as well as orally. One report per group.

9 Two questions 1. How would you describe turbulence? Think about key-words to characterise it. 2. Think about situations where turbulent flow is better than laminar and vice versa.

10 Turbulence Random 3D Diffusive Dissipative Property of the flow High Reynolds number Continuum

11 Turbulence Big whirls have little whirls Which feed on their velocity Little whirls have lesser whirls And so on to viscosity in the molecular sense L F Richardson

12 Turbulence I am an old man now, and when I die and go to Heaven there are two matters on which I hope enlightenment. One is quantum electro-dynamics and the other is turbulence of fluids. About the former, I am really rather optimistic. Sir Horace Lamb

15 Question Why do we need to model turbulence?

16 Turbulence modelling Example: Pipe flow, turbulent Reynolds number, Re = Relation between largest and smallest scales ~ Re 3/4 No. of nodes ~ Re 9/ ca. 30 gigabyte RAM Conclusion: Model needed
