Magnetohydrodynamic turbulence at moderate magnetic Reynolds number
(2004)
We consider the case of homogeneous turbulence in a conducting fluid that is exposed to a uniform external magnetic field at low to moderate magnetic Reynolds numbers (by moderate we mean here values as high as 20). When ...
Representing anisotropy of two-point second-order turbulence velocity correlations using structure tensors
(2008)
A locally homogeneous representation for the two-point, second-order turbulent velocity fluctuation Rij(x,r) = 〈u′i(x)u′i(x+r)〉 is formulated in terms of three linearly independent structure tensors [Kassinos et al., J. ...
Effect of turbulent pulsating flow around a near-wall submerged cylinder on the potential motion of bed and suspended loads
(International Society of Offshore and Polar Engineers, 2016)
In the present work, the pulsating flow around a submerged cylinder close to the impermeable seabed is examined by means of Large Eddy Simulations (LES). A Reynolds number equal to Re = 5000 is considered, based on the ...
Large Eddy Simulation of near-bed pipelines in oscillatory flow
(2018)
A series of unsteady, three-dimensional numerical simulations of the incompressible, oscillatory flow around a near-bed pipeline is presented. A flow at Reynolds number equal to Reαo=20,000 with respect to the oscillatory ...
Flow development in compression of a finite amount of a Bingham plastic
(2007)
The flow and shape evolution during the compression of a finite amount of a Bingham plastic is investigated by means of numerical simulations. The problem relates to the popular compression test used for the rheological ...
Large-eddy simulations of unidirectional water flow over dunes
(2009)
The unidirectional, subcritical flow over fixed dunes is studied numerically using large-eddy simulation, while the immersed boundary method is implemented to incorporate the bed geometry. Results are presented for a typical ...
A simplified structure-based model using standard turbulence scale equations: computation of rotating wall-bounded flows
(2006)
Two linear eddy-viscosity models, the v2-f and k-ω models, have been combined with an algebraic structure-based algorithm for the evaluation of the Reynolds stresses. This closure was originally designed as an integral ...
Structure anisotropy in MHD turbulence subjected to mean shear and frame rotation
(Affiliation: Dept. of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, CyprusAffiliation: Department of Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, United StatesAffiliation: Center for Turbulence Research, NASA Ames Research Center, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Kassinos, S.C.Dept. of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, Nicosia, Cyprusemail: kassinos@ucy.ac.cy, 2005)
We consider homogeneous turbulence in a conducting fluid that is exposed to a uniform external magnetic field while being sheared in fixed and rotating frames. We take both the frame-rotation axis and the applied magnetic ...
When structure makes a difference: Computation of rotating wall-bounded flows with an algebraic structure-based model
(Affiliation: Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, Nicosia 1678, CyprusAffiliation: Center for Turbulence Research, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, United StatesCorrespondence Address: Kassinos, S.C.Department of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, University of Cyprus, Nicosia 1678, Cyprusemail: kassinos@ucy.ac.cy, 2005)
Two linear eddy-viscosity models, the ν 2-f and κ-ω models, have been combined with an algebraic structure-based algorithm for the evaluation of the Reynolds stresses. This closure was originally designed as an integral ...
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) Simulations of aerosol deposition in the lungs
(TSFP-9, 2015)
In the current study, Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are used to investigate the transport and deposition of inhaled aerosol particles (dp = 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2.5, 5, 10 μm) in a realistic geometry of the human airways under ...
