    Notes: Second-order pressure structure functions, estimated from direct numerical simulations of homogeneous and nonhomogeneous turbulent flows, exhibit a significant Reynolds number dependence in the dissipative range. This dependence mainly reflects the contribution from low wave numbers to the instantaneous pressure gradient. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The departure from Kolmogorov (1941) scaling of high-order moments of longitudinal velocity increments in a fully developed turbulent channel flow is investigated using data obtained with hot wire anemometry (HWA), laser Doppler velocimetry (LDV) and direct numerical simulation (DNS). The magnitude of the departure increases towards the wall, reaching a local maximum at a distance of about 20 wall units. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: I have sometimes thought that what makes a man's work classic is often just this multiplicity [of interpretations], which invites and at the same time resists our craving for a clear understanding. Wright (1982, p. 34), on Wittgenstein's philosophy Small-scale turbulence has been an area of especially active research in the recent past, and several useful research directions have been pursued. Here, we selectively review this work. The emphasis is on scaling phenomenology and kinematics of small-scale structure. After providing a brief introduction to the classical notions of universality due to Kolmogorov and others, we survey the existing work on intermittency, refined similarity hypotheses, anomalous scaling exponents, derivative statistics, intermittency models, and the structure and kinematics of small-scale structure-the latter aspect coming largely from the direct numerical simulation of homogeneous turbulence in a periodic box.

    Notes: The effect of suction, applied through a short porous wall strip, on a low Reynolds number self-preserving turbulent boundary layer has been quantified by measuring the local wall shear stress and the main Reynolds stresses downstream of the strip. When the suction rate is sufficiently high, pseudo-relaminarization occurs almost immediately downstream of the strip. Farther downstream, transition occurs followed by a slow return to a fully turbulent self-preserving state. During relaminarization, the measured skin friction coefficient cf falls below the level corresponding to the no suction value, reaching a minimum where transition begins. An empirical cf distribution is proposed that groups together results obtained at different streamwise stations and different suction rates. Of all the measured Reynolds stresses, the longitudinal turbulence intensity recovers relatively quickly from the change in boundary conditions while the wall-normal turbulence intensity and the Reynolds shear stress are significantly affected by the suction. The Reynolds shear stress, which is negligible during relaminarization, has the slowest recovery. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The vorticity spectrum has been inferred, using local isotropy, from measurements of the lateral vorticity components in a turbulent wake over a small Reynolds number range. The high wavenumber part of the spectrum supports Kolmogorov's [C. R. Akad. Sci. USSR 30, 301 (1941)] similarity theory. Among the different published analytical expressions for the three-dimensional energy spectrum, the model of Kida and Murakami [Phys. Fluids 30, 2030 (1987)] is closest to the present data. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Autocorrelations of squared velocity derivatives and squared vorticity fluctuation components have been measured at the centerline in the wake of a circular cylinder. Near the start of the inertial range, all the correlations exhibit similar power-law behaviors and yield essentially the same estimate of the intermittency exponent μ. The results imply that (∂u/∂x)2 may be a reasonable substitute for the instantaneous dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy, for determining the value of μ. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The previously established similarity between the temperature spectrum and the spectrum corresponding to the mean turbulent energy in a wide variety of turbulent (shear) flows is re-examined within the framework of second-order velocity and temperature structure functions. Measurements in a turbulent wake indicate that Dq, the sum of the three second-order velocity structure functions bears close similarity to Dθ, the second-order temperature structure function, when Dq and Dθ are normalized by the mean turbulent energy and temperature variance, respectively. This similarity also applies to other flows. In the limit of small separations, the Kolmogorov-normalized structure functions differ only by the value of the molecular Prandtl number. In the inertial range, the Obukhov–Corrsin constant differs from the Dq Kolmogorov constant by a factor equal to the dissipation time scale ratio. This ratio is typically about 0.5. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The refined similarity hypothesis of Kolmogorov [J. Fluid Mech. 13, 82 (1962)] is extended to a scalar field. These hypotheses are tested using measurements in a circular jet and the atmospheric surface layer. Over a significant part of the inertial range, statistics of the normalized stochastic variables for velocity and temperature indicate a dependence on the separation r. This dependence is also quantified through the probability density functions of the stochastic variables and the correlation between the velocity (or temperature) increment and the local energy (or temperature) dissipation rates. Probability density functions of the stochastic variables are conditioned on the local Reynolds number Rer based on r and the local energy dissipation rate. These functions depend on Rer when the latter is small and are approximately universal when Rer is very large. This behaviour is consistent with the refined similarity hypothesis. There is however a slight difference between the shapes of the conditional probability density functions in the two flows, implying a weak dependence on the turbulence Reynolds number Rλ and flow conditions. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The joint statistics between the temperature fluctuation θ and all three components of the temperature dissipation rate εθ are investigated in the self-preserving region of a slightly heated turbulent round jet. The main factors which determine the correlation between θ and εθ are the asymmetry of p(θ), the probability density function (PDF) of θ, and the anisotropy of the small-scale turbulence. The assumption of statistical independence between θ and εθ appears to be more closely approximated in this flow than in a turbulent plane jet. Relatedly, the assumption of local isotropy is also more closely satisfied in the round jet than in the plane jet. When θ is in the range ±2 standard deviations, the expectations of all components of εθ, conditioned on θ, are approximately equal in the fully turbulent part of the flow; the magnitude of the conditional expectation is consistent with the independence assumption. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
