The paper investigates the destruction-of-dissipation tensor εεij in low-Reynolds number turbulent plane channel flow. This tensor, which represents the destruction of the dissipation tensor εij (appearing in the budgets of the covariances of fluctuating velocities rij) by molecular viscosity, exhibits specific near-wall anisotropy and is not 2-C at the wall. The budgets of εεij (turbulent and viscous diffusion, pressure-term, various production mechanisms, and destruction by molecular viscosity εεεij) are studied and various scaling relations are examined.

AbstractWe investigate the fluctuations of thermodynamic state variables in compressible aerodynamic wall turbulence, using results of direct numerical simulation (DNS) of compressible turbulent plane channel flow. The basic transport equations governing the behaviour of thermodynamic variables (density, pressure, temperature and entropy) are reviewed and used to derive the exact transport equations for the variances and fluxes (transport by the fluctuating velocity field) of the thermodynamic fluctuations. The scaling with Reynolds and Mach number of compressible turbulent plane channel flow is discussed. Statistics and correlation coefficients of the thermodynamic fluctuations are examined. Finally, detailed budgets of the transport equations for the variances and fluxes of the thermodynamic variables are analysed. The implications of these results, leading both to the understanding of the thermodynamic interactions in compressible wall turbulence and to possible improvements in statistical modelling, are assessed. Finally, the required extension of existing DNS data to fully characterise this canonical flow is discussed.
