Abstract:
This study investigates the pressure–strain tensor ($\unicode[STIX]{x1D72B}$) in Langmuir turbulence. The pressure–strain tensor is determined from large-eddy simulations (LES), and is partitioned into components associated with the mean current shear (rapid), the Stokes shear and the turbulent–turbulent (slow) interactions. The rapid component can be parameterized using existing closure models, although the coefficients in the closure models are particular to Langmuir turbulence. A closure model for the Stokes component is proposed, and it is shown to agree with results from the LES. The slow

Abstract:
In previous computational fluid dynamics studies of breaking waves, there has been a marked tendency to severely over-estimate turbulence levels, both pre- and post-breaking. This problem is most likely related to the previously described (though not sufficiently well recognized) conditional instability of widely used turbulence models when used to close Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations in regions of nearly potential flow with finite strain, resulting in exponential growth of the turbulent kinetic energy and eddy viscosity. While this problem has been known for nearly 20 years,

Within the framework of the theory of unsteady turbulent flows in a stratified fluid, a new parameterization of the turbulent Prandtl number is proposed. The parameterization is included in the k-ε-closure and used within the three-dimensional model of thermohydrodynamics of an enclosed water body where density distribution includes pycnocline. This allows us to describe turbulence in a stratified shear flow without the restrictions associated with the gradient Richardson number and justify the choice of closure constants.

Abstract This paper presents a turbulence closure for neutral and stratified atmospheric conditions. The closure is based on the concept of the total turbulent energy. The total turbulent energy is the sum of the turbulent kinetic energy and turbulent potential energy, which is proportional to the potential temperature variance. The closure uses recent observational findings to take into account the mean flow stability. These observations indicate that turbulent transfer of heat and momentum behaves differently under very stable stratification. Whereas the turbulent heat flux tends toward zero

The flow and turbulence in an IC engine cylinder were studied using the SSG variant of the Reynolds stress turbulence closure model. In-cylinder turbulence is characterized by strong turbulence anisotropy and flow rotation, which aid in air-fuel mixing. It is argued that solving the differential transport equations for each turbulent stress tensor component, as implied by second-moment closures, can better reproduce stress anisotropy and effects of rotation, than with eddy-viscosity models. Therefore, a Reynolds stress model that can meet the demands of in-cylinder flows was incorporated into

Internal rotating boundary-layer flows are strongly influenced by large circumferential strain and the turbulence field is anisotropic. This is especially true in the entry region of a rotating pipe where the flow is three dimensional, the centrifugal force due to fluid rotation is less important, and the circumferential strain created by surface rotation has a significant effect on the turbulence field near the wall. Consequently, viscous effects cannot be neglected in the near-wall region. Several low-Reynolds-number turbulence closures are proposed for the calculation of developing rotating

Abstract:
Subgrid-scale closures for magnetohydodynamic (MHD) turbulence are examined using the filtering technique. From the similarities between incompressible MHD turbulence and its hydrodynamic counterpart, as well as ideas from dynamo theory, a subgrid model is constructed from the large-eddy simulation (LES) of MHD turbulence. This model should find applicability in treating LES of the reversed-field pinch.

Abstract The authors report results of a study of finescale turbulence structure in the portion of the nocturnal boundary layer known as the residual layer (RL). The study covers two nights during the Cooperative Atmosphere–Surface Exchange Study 1999 (CASES-99) field experiment that exhibit significant differences in turbulence, as indicated by the observed turbulence dissipation rates in the RL. The RL turbulence sometimes reaches intensities comparable to those in the underlying stable boundary layer. The commonly accepted concept of turbulence generation below critical values of the gradie

Abstract:
A comparison of several commonly used turbulence models (including the K–ε model and three second-order closures) is made for the test problem of homogeneous turbulent shear flow in a rotating frame. The time evolution of the turbulent kinetic energy and dissipation rate is calculated for these models and comparisons are made with previously published experiments and numerical simulations. Particular emphasis is placed on examining the ability of each model to predict equilibrium states accurately for a range of the parameter Ω/S (the ratio of the rotation rate to the shear rate).

The present study is devoted to the interaction between a swarm of bubbles and a turbulent field in a linear shear flow. The transversal and longitudinal evolutions of the void fraction and of the Reynolds stress tensor have been measured. When the air bubbles are blown uniformly into the shear, the void fraction profiles exhibit a strong gradient which can be explained by kinematical effects. No void migration has been observed. The behavior of the Reynolds tensor indicates that the nonisotropy induced by the mean velocity gradient decreases when the void fraction increases. A simple mechanis

In this two-part study, we present the development and analysis of a stochastic theory for characterizing the relative positions of monodisperse, low-inertia particle pairs that are settling rapidly in homogeneous isotropic turbulence. In the limits of small Stokes number and Froude number such that $Fr\ll St_{\unicode[STIX]{x1D702}}\ll 1$, closures are developed for the drift and diffusion fluxes in the probability density function (p.d.f.) equation for the pair relative positions. The theory focuses on the relative motion of particle pairs in the dissipation regime of turbulence, i.e. for pa

Abstract:
The analysis and modelling of the structure of turbulent flow in a circular pipe subjected to an axial rotation is presented. Particular attention is paid to determining the terms in various turbulence closures that generate the two main physical features that characterize this flow: a rotationally dependent axial mean velocity and a rotationally dependent mean azimuthal or swirl velocity relative to the rotating pipe. It is shown that the first feature is well represented by two-dimensional explicit algebraic stress models but is irreproducible by traditional two-equation models. On the other

Abstract:
The rapid expansion of a turbulent boundary layer in supersonic flow is studied analytically and experimentally. Emphasis is placed on the effect of bulk dilatation on turbulent fluctuations. The hypotheses made in the analysis are similar to those in the rapid distortion theory and are used to simplify second-order closures. By assuming that the fluctuating velocity is solenoidal an extension of classical subsonic models is proposed. A new variable is defined, which takes into account the mean density variations, and behaves like the Reynolds stress tensor in subsonic flows with weak inhomoge

Abstract:
Abstract Turbulence in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) transports heat, momentum, and moisture in eddies that are not resolvable by current NWP systems. Numerical models typically parameterize this process using vertical diffusion operators whose coefficients depend on the intensity of the expected turbulence. The PBL scheme employed in this study uses a one-and-a-half-order closure based on a predictive equation for the turbulent kinetic energy (TKE). For a stably stratified fluid, the growth and decay of TKE is largely controlled by the dynamic stability of the flow as represented by the
