The hydrodynamic instability in an industrial, two-staged, counter-rotative, swirled injector of highly complex geometry is under investigation. Large eddy simulations (LES) show that the complicated and strongly nonparallel flow field in the injector is superimposed by a strong precessing vortex core (PVC). Mean flow fields of LES, validated by experimental particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements, are used as input for both local and global linear stability analysis (LSA). It is shown that the origin of the instability is located at the exit plane of the primary injector. Mode shapes of both global and local LSA are compared to dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) based on LES snapshots, showing good agreement. The estimated frequencies for the instability are in good agreement with both the experiment and the simulation. Furthermore, the adjoint mode shapes retrieved by the global approach are used to find the best location for periodic forcing in order to control the PVC.

Abstract The large-scale circulation (LSC) is the most fundamental turbulent coherent flow structure in Rayleigh-B\'enard convection. Further, LSCs provide the foundation upon which superstructures, the largest observable features in convective systems, are formed. In confined cylindrical geometries with diameter-to-height aspect ratios of Γ ≅ 1, LSC dynamics are known to be governed by a quasi-two-dimensional, coupled horizontal sloshing and torsional (ST) oscillatory mode. In contrast, in Γ ≥ √2 cylinders, a three-dimensional jump rope vortex (JRV) motion dominates the LSC dynamics. Here, we use dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) on direct numerical simulation data of liquid metal to show that both types of modes co-exist in Γ = 1 and Γ = 2 cylinders but with opposite dynamical importance. Furthermore, with this analysis, we demonstrate that ST oscillations originate from a tilted elliptical mean flow superposed with a symmetric higher order mode, which is connected to the four rolls in the plane perpendicular to the LSC in Γ = 1 tanks.

Abstract Aneurysms are abnormal expansion of weakened blood vessels which can cause mortality or long-term disability upon rupture. Several studies have shown that inflow conditions spatially and temporally influence aneurysm flow behavior. The objective of this investigation is to identify impact of inflow conditions on spatio-temporal flow behavior in an aneurysm using Dynamic Mode Decomposition (DMD). For this purpose, low-frame rate velocity field measurements are performed in an idealized aneurysm model using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The inflow conditions are precisely controlled using a ViVitro SuperPump system where non-dimensional fluid parameters such as peak Reynolds number (Rep) and Womersely number (α) are varied from 50-270 and 2-5, respectively. The results show the ability of DMD to identify the spatial flow structures and their frequency content. Furthermore, DMD captured the impact of inflow conditions, and change in mode shapes, amplitudes, frequency, and growth rate information is observed. The DMD low-order flow reconstruction also showed the complex interplay of flow features for each inflow scenario. Furthermore, the low-order reconstruction results provided a mathematical description of the flow behavior in the aneurysm which captured the vortex formation, evolution, and convection in detail. These results indicated that the vortical structure behavior varied with the change in α while its strength and presence of secondary structures is influenced by the change in Rep.

The flame transfer function (FTF) of an aeronautical burner in a rectangular combustion chamber is determined using large eddy simulation (LES). The configuration contains an industrial swirling device placed in a laboratory combustor. The swirler comprises three air passages and liquid kerosene is injected through a pilot and a multipoint injection device including 24 injection holes. In order to reduce computational costs, the forcing process for FTF determination is limited to three forcing cycles. Application of the dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) allows to extract the coherent flow structures at the forcing frequency and to construct local flame response and time delay fields. In a next step, modal analysis is carried out with a Helmholtz solver where acoustic boundary conditions are utilized taking mean flow effects into account. The latter allows to model mean flow effects in a zero Mach number framework. Results are compared with experimental observations: stable and unstable combustion modes for different outlet impedances are correctly identified by this methodology. All results are validated against experimental data and show good agreement.

Abstract A rotating detonation combustor (RDC) is a novel approach to achieving pressure gain combustion. Due to the steady propagation of the detonation wave around the perimeter of the annular combustion chamber, the RDC dynamic behavior is well suited to analysis with reduced-order techniques. For flow fields with such coherent aspects, the dynamic mode decomposition (DMD) has been shown to capture well the dominant oscillatory features corresponding to stable limit-cycle or quasi-periodic behavior within its dynamic modes. Details regarding the application of the technique to RDC—such as the number of frames, the effect of subtracting the temporal mean from the processed dataset, the resulting dynamic mode shapes, and the reconstruction of the dynamics from a reduced set of dynamic modes—are analyzed and interpreted in this study. The DMD analysis is applied to two commonly observed operating conditions of rotating detonation combustion, viz., (1) a single spinning wave with weak counter-rotating waves and (2) a clapping operating mode with two counter-propagating waves at equal speed and strength. We show that care must be taken when applying DMD to RDC datasets due to the presence of standing waves (expressed as either counter-propagating azimuthal waves or longitudinal pulsations). Without accounting for these effects, the reduced-order reconstruction fails using the standard DMD approach. However, successful application of the DMD allows for the reconstruction and separation of specific wave modes, from which models of the stabilization and propagation of the primary and counter-rotating waves can be derived.

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.

Abstract This article introduces some soft computing methods generally used for data analysis and flow pattern detection in fluid dynamics. These techniques decompose the original flow field as an expansion of modes, which can be either orthogonal in time (variants of dynamic mode decomposition), or in space (variants of proper orthogonal decomposition) or in time and space (spectral proper orthogonal decomposition), or they can simply be selected using some sophisticated statistical techniques (empirical mode decomposition). The performance of these methods is tested in the turbulent wake of a wall-mounted square cylinder. This highly complex flow is suitable to show the ability of the aforementioned methods to reduce the degrees of freedom of the original data by only retaining the large scales in the flow. The main result is a reduced-order model of the original flow case, based on a low number of modes. A deep discussion is carried out about how to choose the most computationally efficient method to obtain suitable reduced-order models of the flow. The techniques introduced in this article are data-driven methods that could be applied to model any type of non-linear dynamical system, including numerical and experimental databases.
