    Oscillatory flow in a stepped channel (1993)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1993-02-01
    Description: Two-dimensional, unsteady flow of a viscous, incompressible fluid in a stepped channel has been studied by the numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equation using an accurate finite-difference method. With a sinusoidal mass flow rate, the problem has three governing parameters: the Reynolds number, the Strouhal number, and the step height. The effects on the flow of varying all three parameters has been investigated systematically. In appropriate parameter regimes, a strong vortex wave' is generated during the forward phase when the flow is over the step into the expansion. Secondary effects on the wave can result in a complex flow pattern with each major structure of the flow consisting of an eddy with more than one core. No such wave is found during the reverse phase of the flow. The generation and development of the wave is examined in some detail, and our results are compared and contrasted with those of previous studies, both experimental and theoretical, of flow in non-uniform vessels. © 1993, Cambridge University Press.

    Turbulent fountains in a closed chamber (1993)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1993-10-01
    Description: An experimental and numerical investigation of the density distribution produced in a container by a negatively buoyant jet has been undertaken to evaluate the effect of the forced vertical motion of the environment. Vertical motion results from inflows and exhausts above and below the jet. Three distinct cases were identified. In the first, a velocity in the environment opposed the jet and produced a steady flow. This configuration was used to measure the entrainment flux along the length of the fountain. This configuration is similar to a jet impinging on an interface for which the entrainment depends on the local Froude number. The experiments covered a wider range of local Froude numbers than previously published and have produced results which are different from those in the literature. In the second case, the environment was at rest except for the motion induced by the fountain. An interface formed at the base of the fountain and moved quickly to the top. Once there, it advanced slowly due to entrainment through the end of the fountain and the length of the fountain increased. The final case is a co-flowing environment. No interface formed if the environment velocity was greater than the advance velocity of the end of the fountain. However, one formed for a smaller environment velocity and the end of the fountain was observed to undergo a quasi-periodic jump phenomenon. The top of the fountain would advance with the environment particles for a short time and then snap back to the elevation of a fountain in an infinite environment. A new interface formed and the cycle repeated. © 1993, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    The viscosity of bimodal and polydisperse suspensions of hard spheres in the dilute limit (1994)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-11-10
    Description: An exact result is calculated numerically for the dilute limiting, zero shear viscosity of bimodal suspensions of hard spheres. The required hydrodynamic functions are calculated from recent results for the resistivities of unequal spheres. Both the hydrodynamic and Brownian contributions to the Huggins coefficient exhibit a minimum that is symmetric in mixing volume fraction. The resultant minimum deepens with increasing size ratio. The results are discussed in the light of published measurements of the viscosity for bimodal suspensions and previous phenomenological theories. The reduction of viscosity upon mixing is seen to be a result of near-field hydrodynamic shielding of asymmetric particle pairs. It is also shown that the use of far-field hydrodynamic interactions yields qualitatively incorrect results for the viscosity of binary mixtures. A parametrization of the bimodal results allows an estimation of the effects of suspension polydispersity on the Huggins coefficient. For polydispersities of ten percent or less, the Huggins coefficient is essentially unchanged from the value calculated for an equivalent, monodisperse suspension at equal volume fraction. A parametrization of these results is provided for relating the reduction in Huggins coefficient to the polydispersity index. © 1994, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.

    The toroidal bubble (1968)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1968-04-09
    Description: It has been observed by Walters & Davidson (1963) that release of a mass of gas in water sometimes produces a rising toroidal bubble. This paper is concerned with the history of such a bubble, given that at the initial instant the motion is irrotational everywhere in the water. The variation of its overall radius a with time may be predicted from the vertical impulse equation, and it should be possible to make the same prediction by equating the rate of loss of combined kinetic and potential energy to the rate of viscous dissipation. This is indeed seen to be the case, but not before it is recognized that in a viscous fluid vorticity will continually diffuse out from the bubble surface, destroying the irrotationality of the motion, and necessitating an examination of the distribution of vorticity. The impulse equation takes the same form as in an inviscid fluid, but the energy equation is severely modified. Other results include an evaluation of the effect of a hydrostatic variation in bubble volume, and a prediction of the time which will have elapsed before the bubble becomes unstable under the action of surface tension.

    On the instability of rapidly rotating shear flows to non-axisymmetric disturbances (1968)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1968-02-26
    Description: The stability is considered of the flow with velocity components [ {0,Omega r[1+O(epsilon^2)],;2epsilonOmega r_0f(r/r_0)} ] (where f(x) is a function of order one) in cylindrical polar co-ordinates (r, ϕ, z), bounded by the rigid cylinders r/r0 = x1 and r/r0 = 1 (0 [les ] x1 〈 1). When ε [Lt ] 1, the flow is shown to be unstable to non-axisymmetric inviscid disturbances of sufficiently large axial wavelength. The case of Poiseuille flow in a rotating pipe is considered in more detail, and the growth rate of the most rapidly growing disturbance is found to be 2εΩ.

    Axial dispersion in a channel with oscillating walls (1993)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1993-04-01
    Description: An analysis is made of solute transport through a fluid within a long, but finite, channel or pipe whose walls remain parallel but oscillate transversely. When the fluid is viscous, the wall motion causes steady streaming. Axial dispersion of solute is calculated over a wide parameter range, and mean longitudinal transport is found to be greatly enhanced when the steady-streaming Reynolds number is much greater than unity. The results are applied to low-volume high-frequency ventilation of the human lung. © 1993, Cambridge University Press

    Direct numerical simulation of H2/O2/N2 flames with complex chemistry in two-dimensional turbulent flows (1994)
    Cambridge University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 1994-12-25
    Description: Premixed H2/02/N2 flames propagating in two-dimensional turbulence have been studied using direct numerical simulations (DNS: simulations in which all fluid and thermochemical scales are fully resolved). Simulations include realistic chemical kinetics and molecular transport over a range of equivalence ratios ©〉 {& — 0.35, 0.5, 0.7, 1.0, 1.3). The validity of the flamelet assumption for premixed turbulent flames is checked by comparing DNS data and results obtained for steady strained premixed flames with the same chemistry (flamelet ‘library’). This comparison shows that flamelet libraries overestimate the influence of stretch on flame structure. Results are also compared with earlier zero-chemistry (flame sheet) and one-step chemistry simulations. Consistent with the simpler models, the turbulent flame with realistic chemistry aligns preferentially with extensive strain rates in the tangent plane and flame curvature probability density functions are close to symmetric with near-zero means. For very lean flames it is also found that the local flame structure correlates with curvature as predicted by DNS based on simple chemistry. However, for richer flames, by contrast to simple-chemistry results with non-unity Lewis numbers (ratio of thermal to species diffusivity), local flame structure does not correlate with curvature but rather with tangential strain rate. Turbulent straining results in substantial thinning of the flame relative to the steady unstrained laminar case. Heat-release and H202contours remain thin and connected (‘flamelet-like’) while species including H-atom and OH are more diffuse. Peak OH concentration occurs well behind the peak heat-release zone when the flame temperature is high (of the order of 2800 K). For cooler and leaner flames (about 1600 K and for an equivalence ratio below 0.5) the OH radical is concentrated near the reaction zone and the maximum OH level provides an estimate of the local flamelet speed as assumed by Becker et al. (1990). © 1994, Cambridge University Press. All rights reserved.
