The response of small-scale shear layers to perturbations in turbulence T. Watanabe and K. Nagata Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 963 A31 2023 (Open Access) This article may be found at  https://doi.org/10.1017/jfm.2023.316. The article is also available  here .  Abstract The perturbation response of small-scale shear layers in turbulence is investigated with direct numerical simulations (DNS). The analysis of shear layers in isotropic turbulence suggests that the typical layer thickness is about four times the Kolmogorov scale η. Response for sinusoidal perturbations is investigated for an isolated shear layer, which models a mean flow around the shear layers in turbulence. The vortex formation in the shear layer is optimally promoted by the perturbation whose wavelength divided by the layer thickness is about 7. These results indicate that the small-scale shear instability in turbulence is efficiently promoted by velocity fluctuations with a wavelength of about 30η. Furthermore, DNS

LES investigation of a piston-driven synthetic jet actuator with multiple orifices

P. D. Tung, T. Watanabe, K. Nagata LES investigation of a piston-driven synthetic jet actuator with multiple orifices CFD Letters, 16 1998-2009 2023 The PDF is available  here .  This article may be found at https://doi.org/10.37934/cfdl.16.1.150170. Abstract A piston-driven synthetic jet actuator has the potential for application in flow control and fundamental studies of turbulence, although the high-speed flow generated by this actuator is less investigated than a low-speed synthetic jet. The interaction of high-speed jets issued from a piston-driven synthetic jet actuator with multiple orifices is investigated with large eddy simulation (LES). The maximum jet Mach number is related to the maximum pressure inside the actuator regardless of the number of orifices. Temporal variations of the jet Mach number are almost identical for different cycles, and the jet formation in each cycle occurs under the same conditions despite

Accepted manuscript is available here.  This is the accepted version of the article, which has been published in final form at https://doi.org/10.1002/fld.5273. This article may be used for non-commercial purposes in accordance with the Wiley Self-Archiving Policy  [http://www.wileyauthors.com/self-archiving]. Abstract Large eddy simulation (LES) coupled with Lagrangian particle simulation (LPS) is applied to investigate high-speed turbulent reacting flows. Here, LES solves a velocity field while LPS solves scalar transport equations with notional particles. Although LPS does not require sub-grid scale models for chemical source terms, molecular diffusion has to be modeled by a

Statistical properties of shear and non-shear velocity components in isotropic turbulence and turbulent jets

R. Enoki, T. Watanabe, K. Nagata  Statistical properties of shear and non-shear velocity components in isotropic turbulence and turbulent jets Physical Review Fluids, 8 104602 2023 The PDF is available  here .  This article may be found at  https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevFluids.8.104602 . Abstract The triple decomposition of a velocity gradient tensor, which extracts local fluid motions of shear, rigid-body rotation, and irrotational strain, is extended to the decomposition of velocity vectors into shear and nonshear components. The present approach adapts the Biot-Savart law to reconstruct shear and nonshear velocities from the vorticity vectors of shear and rigid-body rotation, respectively. These velocities are related to the flows induced by small-scale shear layers or vortex tubes. The decomposed velocities are investigated with direct n
