Physical Picture

SummaryObserved variations of eddy viscosity in the outer regions of turbulent boundary layers are here explained in terms of the reorientation and stretching of vortex elements. The explanation, which is purely qualitative, gives a clear and plausible physical picture.

A numerical investigation of accelerated boundary layers (BL) has been performed using linear and non-linear eddy viscosity models (EVM). The acceleration parameters (KS) investigated range between 1.5×10−6 and 3.0×10−6. The one equation (k-l), Spalart Allmaras (SA) and the two-equation Menter SST and Chien models in their standard forms are found to be insensitive to acceleration. Nevertheless, proposed modifications for the SA, Chien and the k-l models significantly improved predictions. The major improvement was achieved by modifying the damping functions in these models and also an analogous source term, E, for the Chien model. Encouraging agreement with measurements is found using the Launder Sharma (LS), Cubic and Explicit Algebraic Stress Models (EASM) in their standard forms. The cubic model best predicted the turbulence quantities. Investigations confirm that it is practical for Reynolds Average Navier-Stokes (RANS) models to capture reversion from the turbulent to laminar state albeit for equilibrium sink type flows.
