Abstract

Turbulent/non-turbulent interfaces (TNTIs) in compressible jets are studied with direct numerical simulations of temporally evolving compressible planar jets with jet Mach numbers MJ of 0.6, 1.6, and 2.6 ejected with a jet initial pressure equal to the ambient pressure. The flow properties near the TNTI are investigated with statistics computed on the local interfacial coordinate. The layer thicknesses are about 10-13η for the TNTI layer, 3η for the viscous superlayer, and 7-10η for the turbulent sublayer (TSL), where η is the Kolmogorov scale on the jet centerline. The TSL thickness divided by η decreases from 10 to 7 as MJ increases. The turbulent fluid is characterized with lower density, higher temperature, and lower pressure than the non-turbulent fluid, where these properties sharply change within the TNTI layer. The rate of change in internal energy near the TNTI is proportional to the initial kinetic energy of the jet, where the internal energy at the outer edge of the TNTI layer changes because of the diffusive/dilatational effects. The movement of entrained fluid is similar in compressible and incompressible jets. Compressibility affects the total entrainment rate via the total surface area of the TNTI, where the surface area of the TNTI per unit area of the plane perpendicular to the cross-streamwise direction decreases from 9.5 to 7.0 as MJ increases. Strongly compressive waves appear in the non-turbulent region at a high Mach number, where the imprints of these waves are found within the TNTI layer as strong pressure/temperature correlation and large values of pressure skewness.

時間発展する圧縮性平面噴流における乱流・非乱流界面

圧縮性噴流における乱流・非乱流界面(TNTI)を、噴流マッハ数MJが0.6, 1.6, 2.6 の時間発展型圧縮性平面噴流の直接数値シミュレーションによって調査した。TNTI近傍の流れ特性を、局所界面座標上で計算された統計量を用いて調べた。層厚は、TNTI層が約10-13η、粘性超層が3η、乱流副層(TSL)が7-10ηであり、ηは噴流中心線上のKolmogorovスケールである。TSL の厚さをηで割ると、MJ が増加するにつれて 10 から 7 へと減少する。乱流は非乱流に比べて密度、温度、圧力が低く、これらの特性は TNTI 層で急激に変化する。TNTI 付近の内部エネルギー変化率は噴流の初期運動エネルギーに比例し、TNTI 層外縁の内部エネルギーは拡散・拡張効果により変化する。圧縮性噴流と非圧縮性噴流では、巻き込まれる流体の動きは似ています。圧縮性は,TNTIの総表面積を介して全巻き込み速度に影響を与え,流れ方向に垂直な面の単位面積当たりのTNTIの表面積は,MJの増加とともに9.5から7.0へと減少する.高マッハ数の非乱流領域では強い圧縮波が現れ、その痕跡はTNTI層内で強い圧力/温度相関と大きな圧力歪度値として見られる。
