The stability of low-speed jets in cross-flow (JICF) is studied using tri-global linear stability analysis (GLSA). Simulations are performed at a Reynolds number of 2000, based on the jet exit diameter and the average velocity. A time stepper method is used in conjunction with the implicitly restarted Arnoldi iteration method. GLSA results are shown to capture the complex upstream shear-layer instabilities. The Strouhal numbers from GLSA match upstream shear-layer vertical velocity spectra and dynamic mode decomposition from simulation (Iyer & Mahesh, J. Fluid Mech., vol. 790, 2016, pp. 275–307) and experiment (Megerian et al., J. Fluid Mech., vol. 593, 2007, pp. 93–129). Additionally, the GLSA results are shown to be consistent with the transition from absolute to convective instability that the upstream shear layer of JICFs undergoes between $R=2$ to $R=4$ observed by Megerian et al. (J. Fluid Mech., vol. 593, 2007, pp. 93–129), where $R=\overline{v}_{jet}/u_{\infty }$ is the jet to cross-flow velocity ratio. The upstream shear-layer instability is shown to dominate when $R=2$, whereas downstream shear-layer instabilities are shown to dominate when $R=4$.

A numerical study of the saturation process inside a rectangular open cavity is presented. Previous experiments and linear stability analysis of the problem completely described the flow in its onset, as well as in a saturated regime, characterized by three-dimensional centrifugal modes. The morphology of the modes found in the experiments matched the ones predicted by linear analysis, but with a shift in frequencies for the oscillating modes. A three-dimensional incompressible direct numerical simulation (DNS) is employed for a detailed investigation of the saturation process inside a cavity with dimensions similar to the one used in the experiments, to further explain the behaviour of these modes. In this work, periodic boundary conditions are first imposed to better understand the effect of the saturation process far from the walls. Then, the effects of spanwise solid wall boundary conditions are investigated with a DNS reproducing the full dynamics of the experiments. The main flow structures are identified using the dynamic mode decomposition technique and compared with previous experimental and linear stability analysis results. The main reason for the aforementioned shift in frequency is explained in this paper, as it is a function of the velocity of the main recirculating vortex.

Abstract Complex unsteady phenomena can appear in turbomachinery components and result in the self-sustained oscillatory motion of the fluid as found in aeronautical engines or rocket turbopumps for example. The origin of these oscillations often results from the complex coupling between flow non linearities and structure motion generating major risks for the operation of the engine and even undermining its components. For instance, in turbines, the internal components that are most liable to vibrate are the blades and discs. In this context, it is critical to understand the effect of the vibrating components on the flow stability in rotor/stator cavities. In order to address this problem, an academic rotor/stator cavity subject to periodic wall oscillations is investigated in the current paper where the frequency of the vibrations are imposed and correspond to the previously identified unstable fluid modes inside the cavity. The objective is to understand the behavior of the flow when subject to a periodic forcing imposed by the rotor motion. To do so, predictive numerical strategies are established based on Large Eddy Simulation (LES) in conjunction to a global stability analysis which seem to be a promising method to capture flow instabilities. Focus is here brought to the underlying pressure fluctuations found inside the cavity using spectral analysis complemented with the global stability analysis, demonstrating that such tools can address forced flow problems. More specifically and for all simulations, the results of the global stability analysis are compared to a Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD) of LES predictions by reconstructing the corresponding modes through a spatio-temporal approach showing that the new fluid limit cycles present modes that shift or completely disappear compared to the unforced case, the forcing mechanism altering the stability of the entire system.

ABSTRACT This article presents a novel experimental technique for measuring in-plane deformations and vibration modes of a rotating nonpneumatic tire subjected to obstacle impacts. The tire was mounted on a modified quarter-car test rig, which was built around one of the drums of a 500-horse power chassis dynamometer at Clemson University's International Center for Automotive Research. A series of experiments were conducted using a high-speed camera to capture the event of the rotating tire coming into contact with a cleat attached to the surface of the drum. The resulting video was processed using a two-dimensional digital image correlation algorithm to obtain in-plane radial and tangential deformation fields of the tire. The dynamic mode decomposition algorithm was implemented on the deformation fields to extract the dominant frequencies that were excited in the tire upon contact with the cleat. It was observed that the deformations and the modal frequencies estimated using this method were within a reasonable range of expected values. In general, the results indicate that the method used in this study can be a useful tool in measuring in-plane deformations of rolling tires without the need for additional sensors and wiring.
