1 Laminar and Turbulent developing flow with/without heat transfer over a flat plate Introduction The purpose of the project was to use the FLOLAB software to model the laminar and turbulent flow over a flat plate. The results of the model under different flow conditions were compared with the theoretical predictions. Detailed analysis of the data obtained was done to characterize the flow parameters like Nusselt Number, Skin Friction Coefficient, shear layer thickness, velocity and temperature. Effect of change in geometry and initial flow conditions were also studied. Theory Boundary Layer Definition 1. Boundary layer thickness (δ ): defined as the distance away from the surface where the local velocity reaches to 99% of the free-stream velocity, that is u(y=δ )=.99U. Somewhat an easy to understand but arbitrary definition.

2 * 2. Displacement thickness ( δ ): Since the viscous force slows down the boundary layer flow, as a result, certain amount of the mass has been displaced (ejected) by the presence of the boundary layer (to satisfy the mass conservation requirement). Imagine that if we displace the uniform flow away from the solid surface by an amount, such that the flow rate with the uniform velocity will be the same as the flow rate being displaced by the presence of the boundary layer. The essence of the boundary layer approimation is that the shear layer is thin, δ <<. This is true if Re>>1.In the boundary layer u i.e. the velocity in the direction scales with L and v,the velocity in the y direction scales with δ.therefore u>>v.also the u u v v following approimations like << and << are made to simplify the Navier y y Stokes equations to the corresponding boundary layer forms. u u + =... continuity y u u u + v y = U e du d e 2 u + ν... momentum Steady, incompressible, 2-D 2 y laminar flow. ρc p T ( u 2 T T + v ) = k 2 y y u + µ ( ) y 2... energy du 1 dp The term U e e = = for flow over a flat plate as U e = constant. d ρ d U e Blasius found a celebrated solution for Re>>1 with a similarity variable η = y. 2ν Using this we have ' u = U f ( η) v = e νu e ( ηf ' f ) 2 Substituting these variables into the -momentum equation of the boundary is going to give us the following ODE as a function of η. f ''' + ff '' = Assuming no slip conditions we have u(,)=v(,)= and The free stream merge condition u(, )=U e

3 These convert to f f ' ' () = f () = ( ) = 1 Solving the Blasius Equation we obtain the following results:- Parameters Eact from Blasius θ.664 Re * δ Re δ 5 99% Re C Re.664 f D C Re Definitions: - For Laminar, where τ w u = µ y w C f = 2 2τ w / ρu e 1 CD ( L) = C f d = L L 2C f ( L) w 1/ 2 / k( Tw Te ).332 Re Nu = q = Pr 1/ 3 For turbulence, C f =.455 / ln Nu =.296 Re 2 (.6 Re 4 / 5 Pr Flow Conditions: - LAMINAR FLOW: - WATER: - 1/ 3 )...6 < Pr < 6

To compare the laminar and the turbulent models,we ran this case under both the conditions.

5 Results Laminar Case Velocity Analysis: Fluid: Water Vinlet velocity=.8954 m/sec,re= X velocity at inlet X velocity at X=.2 m X velocity at X=.4 m X velocity at X=.6 m X velocity at X=.8 m X velocity at X=.9 m X velocity at X=outlet.15 Y.1 Shear stress and hence Cf decreases as X increases.the value of Delta increases X velocity

6 Re=15,Vinlet=.1345 m/s X velocity at inlet X velocity at X=.2 X velocity at X=.4 X velocity at X=.6 X velocity at X=.8 X velocity at X=.9 X velocity at outlet Y X velocity Observations: - Shear stress and hence C f decreases as increases, this is because as Reynolds # increases with, C f goes down. - δ becomes thicker as increases. - As increases we observe that the velocity eceeds the inlet velocity. It shows a problem in Flowlab s approach in solving the velocity profile equations. - In the case of the low Re # (15), δ is much thinner than a higher Re #

7 Fluid: Air Re=1^5 velocity=1.34m/s y direction velocity inlet =.2 =.4 =.6 =.9 =.8 outlet Re=1^2 velocity=.134m/s y direction velocity inlet =.2 =.4 =.6 =.8 =.9 outlet Observations: - Same as in the case of water - For Re=1,i.e under creep flow the velocity profiles does not obey the Boundary layer theory any more.

9 Skin friction coefficient Water.7.6 Cf Re=1^2 Re=1^5 Re=5*1^5 Re=1^ direction Observations - With the increase of the value of C f decreases as Re increases. C f 1/ Re - As the value of inlet velocity is decreased so that the Re decreases the skin friction coefficient goes up. - For low Re i.e at 15 or 1 the C f does not follow the relation C f Re =.664 as predicted by the Boundary layer solution by Blasius. Cf Water at Re=1^5 Cf Cf Re= X Cf Cf Air at Re=1^5 Re=1^

10 Observation - For two different fluids water and air with varying viscosity and density if the Re is maintained constant at a value say 1^5 then C f gives the same profile at different as C f depends on Re only. This shows that Re drives the problem in incompressible fluid flow. Comparison of Flowlab C f values with Theoretical (water).9 W all skin friction,re=1,vinlet=.8954 m/.18 Re=15,Vinlet=.1345 m /s Wall skin friction coefficient wall skin friction blausius prediction s k in fric tio n coefficient Predicted skin friction X X Observations - C f matches with the theoretical value quite closely for Re=1^5.But at lower values of Re say 15 the boundary layer theory has got large discrepancies. So the theoretical values do not match the flolab generated results

11 Comparison of Flolab C f values with Theoretical values(air) Cf Re=1^ Cf direction flowlab theoretical Cf Re=1^ Cf flowlab theoretical direction Observations: - At low Reynolds number the boundary layer theory breaks down,so the value of C f does not match with that predicted by B.L. The deviations are appreciable.

13 Nusselt number without heat transfer 35 3 Nusselt Re=1 Re= X Observations - With T wall =T e the profile doesn t obey the Polhaussen Pr 1/3 law.

14 Comparison of Nu with theoretical values(water) W all nusselt number,re=1,tw=3k,tinlet=4k 25 2 Nusselt number W all nusselt number Nusselt number predicted by polhaussen X(m) Observations - The value from Flolab closely matches the theoretical value as calculated by 1/ 2 1/ 3 Polhaussen. Nu = q k( T T ) =.332 Re Pr w / w e

15 Nusselt no Re=1 without heat transfer 35 Nusselt Number The mismatch is due to the fact that at Tw=Te,the theoretical epression for nusselt number.332*(re)^.5*(pr)^.3333 is not valid plate-wall predicted Y

17 25 2 Nu at Re=1^5 with heat transfer Water 12 1 Nu number at Re=1^5 with heat transfer for air Nu 15 1 Re=1 Nu Re=1^5 flowlab X direction Observations - Nu varies as Pr 1/3.Pr of air is appro=.72 and Pr for Water=6.So the Nu water /Nu air =2.2.From the chart it is obvious that The flolab results do agree with these for a constant Re=1^5

21 Observations - if the length of the plate and inlet velocity is changed such that Re is constant then Nu and C f does not change at all as evident from the above graphs Temperature Profiles for Air Temperature Re=1^2 41 Temperature inlet =.2 =.4 =.6 =.8 =.9 outlet y direction Re=1^5 Temperature 3.1 Temperature inlet =.2 =.4 =.6 =.8 =.9 outlet y direction Observations: - The profiles closely matches the profile as found by polhaussen - The temperature is almost constant when T w =T in

22 Re=1 6 is a typical case of transition, although the laminar model shows large inaccuracies for Re=5*1 5.So we have used both the laminar as well as the turbulent model to run a case where the fluid is air for Re=1 5. Cf Re=1^ Cf laminar flow turbulent flow direction Nu number Re=1^6 Nu X direction lamina flowr turbulent flow

23 Observations: - Turbulent model predicts a much higher Nu and C f than the laminar counterpart. We believe that at 1 6 the turbulent model must be the better one to solve the flow problem. Sample velocity contour as generated by FLOLAB at different X locations

25 Streamlines as plotted by flolab

26 Turbulent Theory : - Approach suggested by Kestin and Persen is to assume that the streamwise velocity u in the boundary layer is correlated by inner variables u(, y) yv *( ) = u f ( y ), y = * v ( ) ν These velocity assumptions when substituted directly into the streamwise boundary layer momentum equation with du e / d = u u 1 τ u + v = y ρ y The turbulent boundary layer begins at = and the integral evaluated algebraically Re = λ Gdλ G in its practical range 2<λ<4 is G(λ)=8.e.48λ.455 C f for flat plate 2 ln (.6 Re ) So from Prandtl s seventh power law yields.58 C f is not accurate.

30 Observations: - Shear stress and hence C f decreases as increases, this is because as Reynolds # increases with, C f goes down. - δ becomes thicker as increases. - As increases we observe that the velocity eceeds the inlet velocity. It shows a problem in Flowlab s approach in solving the velocity profile equations. - The difference with the laminar case is that the shear layer in turbulence is much thinner than its laminar counterpart.
