Abstract:

The unsteady flow field downstream of axial-flow turbine rotors at low Reynolds numbers was investigated experimentally using hot-wire probes. Reynolds number, based on rotor exit velocity and rotor chord lengthReout,RT, was varied from3.2×104to12.8×104at intervals of1.0×104by changing the flow velocity of the wind tunnel. The time-averaged and time-dependent distributions of velocity and turbulence intensity were analyzed to determine the effect of Reynolds number. The reduction of Reynolds number had a marked influence on the turbine flow field. The regions of high turbulence intensity due t

Abstract:

The Reynolds number in an Urban Street Canyon is a difficult parameter to match between reduced-scale experiments and full-scale measurements. It is possible to overcome this mismatch in Reynolds numbers by satisfying the Reynolds number independence criterion, which states that above a certain critical Reynolds number, the flow field remains invariant with increasing Reynolds numbers. For an urban canyon with an aspect ratio 1, this critical Reynolds number is often reported to be 12000 for the mean flow quantities. This critical Reynolds number, however, is not applicable for higher-order qu

Abstract:

Experimental evidence for previously unreported fountain behaviour is presented. It has been found that the first unstable mode of a three-dimensional round fountain is a laminar flapping motion that can grow to a circling or multimodal flapping motion. With increasing Froude and Reynolds numbers, fountain behaviour becomes more disorderly, exhibiting a laminar bobbing motion. The transition between steady behaviour, the initial flapping modes and the laminar bobbing flow can be approximately described by a function FrRe2/3=C. The transition to turbulence occurs at Re > 120, independent of

Measurements of the mean velocity profile and pressure drop were performed in a fully developed, smooth pipe flow for Reynolds numbers from 31×103 to 35×106. Analysis of the mean velocity profiles indicates two overlap regions: a power law for 60<y+<500 or y+<0.15R+, the outer limit depending on whether the Kármán number R+ is greater or less than 9×103; and a log law for 600<y+<0.07R+. The log law is only evident if the Reynolds number is greater than approximately 400×103 (R+>9×103). Von Kármán's constant was shown to be 0.436 which is consistent with the friction factor da

AbstractVesicles exposed to the human circulatory system experience a wide range of flows and Reynolds numbers.

A detailed analysis of the behaviour of a single vesicle at finite Reynolds number is presented. At low Reynolds numbers the results recover vesicle behaviour previously observed for Stokes flow.

This paper reviews the state of the art of Reynolds number effects in wall-bounded shear-flow turbulence, with particular emphasis on the canonical zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer and two-dimensional channel flow problems. The Reynolds numbers encountered in many practical situations are typically orders of magnitude higher than those studied computationally or even experimentally. High-Reynolds number research facilities are expensive to build and operate and the few existing are heavily scheduled with mostly developmental work.

Abstract:

Low Reynolds number refers to a specific range of values of the dimensionless parameter known as the Reynolds number (Re) in fluid dynamics. The Reynolds number is a critical factor used to characterize and predict fluid flow behaviour around objects or within fluid systems. Low Reynolds numbers (typically Re < 2000), laminar flow prevails, where fluid particles move in smooth, orderly layers with minimal mixing or turbulence. Low Reynolds number aerodynamics is a focal point of interest, especially for micro air vehicles (MAVs), drones, and small-scale aircraft. Understanding the nuanced a

The primary recirculation region length is found to increase in a slightly non-linear fashion with Reynolds number up to Reh = 250, at which point shear layer instabilities first appear downstream of the rib.

There is also an experiment reporting the observation of a single tone with no tonal jump or other features associated with feedback.

The linear stability of flow along an annular pipe formed by two coaxial circular cylinders is considered. We find that the flow is unstable above a critical Reynolds number for all 0 < η ≤ 1, where η is the ratio between the radii of the inner and outer cylinders. This contradicts a recent claim that the flow is stable at all Reynolds numbers for radius ratio η less than a finite critical value. We find that non-axisymmetric disturbances become stable at all Reynolds numbers for η < 0.11686215, and we are able to study this ‘bifurcation from infinity’ asymptotically. However, axisymmetr

A general method for the formulation of flow characteristics which are functions of the Reynolds number of the system is presented.

The method is illustrated by finding mathematical expressions for the experimentally determined "roughness" function curve and for the sediment transport initiation curve (Shields' curve), which are relevant for the analysis of flow and sediment transport in

Abstract:

In this study, the Reynolds number effect on the development of round jet flow is presented. The jet is produced from a smoothly contracting round nozzle and the flow structure is controlled by varying the air blower speed in order to obtain various Reynolds numbers (Re). The flow Reynolds number considered varies between 1140 and 9117. Mean velocity measurements were taken using hot-wire probe at different axial and lateral distances (0≤x/d≤50, where x is the downstream distance and d is the nozzle diameter) for the jet flow and at for 0≤x/d≤30 in long pipe attached to the nozzle.

Abstract:

In this paper we study two-dimensional flow around regular polygons with an arbitrary but even number of edges N and one apex pointing to the free stream, with comparison to circular-cylinder flow. Both inviscid flow and low-Reynolds-number viscous flow are addressed. For inviscid flow, we obtained the exact solution for pure potential flow through Schwarz–Christoffel transformation, with the emphasis on the role of edge number, N, on the flow details. We also studied the behaviour, stationary lines and stability of vortex pair and found new stationary lines compared to circular cylinder. For

Abstract:

Direct numerical simulation is performed to study compressible viscous flow around a circular cylinder. The present study considers two-dimensional shock-free continuum flow by varying the Reynolds number between 20 and 100 and the free-stream Mach number between 0 and 0.5. The results indicate that compressibility effects elongate the near wake for cases above and below the critical Reynolds number for two-dimensional flow under shedding. The wake elongation becomes more pronounced as the Reynolds number approaches this critical value. Moreover, we determine the growth rate and frequency of l

Abstract:

Direct numerical simulation (DNS) of a fully developed turbulent channel flow for various Reynolds numbers has been carried out to investigate the Reynolds number dependence. The Reynolds number is set to be Reτ=180, 395, and 640, where Reτ is the Reynolds number based on the friction velocity and the channel half width. The computation has been executed with the use of the finite difference method. Various turbulence statistics such as turbulence intensities, vorticity fluctuations, Reynolds stresses, their budget terms, two-point correlation coefficients, and energy spectra are obtained and

Abstract:

In the field of fluid dynamics, the Reynolds number is a key parameter that influences the flow characteristics around bluff bodies. While its impact on flow around stationary cylinders has been extensively studied, systematic research into flow-induced vibrations (FIVs) under these conditions remains limited. This study utilizes numerical simulations to explore the FIV characteristics of smooth cylinders and passive turbulence control (PTC) cylinders supported elastically within a Reynolds number range from 0.8 × 104 to 1.1 × 105. By comparing the vibration responses, lift coefficients, and w

AbstractThis paper exploits the turbulent flow control method using streamwise travelling waves (Quadrio et al. J. Fluid Mech., vol. 627, 2009, pp. 161–178) to study the effect of Reynolds number on turbulent skin-friction drag reduction. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) of a turbulent channel flow subjected to the streamwise travelling waves of spanwise wall velocity have been performed at Reynolds numbers ranging from $\mathit{Re}_{{\it\tau}}=200$ to 1600. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, this is the highest Reynolds number attempted with DNS for this type of flow control. The presen

Abstract:

Solutions of the Navier-Stokes equations for steady axisymmetric flows in tubes with sinusoidal walls were obtained numerically, for Reynolds numbers (based on the tube radius and mean velocity at a constriction) up to 500, and for varying depth and wavelength of the wall perturbations. Results for the highest Reynolds numbers showed features suggestive of the boundary layer theory of Smith [23]. In the other Reynolds number limit, it has been found that creeping flow solutions can exhibit flow reversal if the perturbation depth is large enough. Experimentally measured pressure drops for a par
