Decay of turbulence at high Reynolds numbers
Using the unique capabilities of the Variable Density Turbulence Tunnel at the Max Planck Institute for Dynamics and Self-Organization, we investigated virtually homogeneous and isotropic grid turbulence over a wide range of Reynolds numbers, , between and . The choice of pressurizable Sulfur Hexafluoride as a working gas makes it possible to reach extremely high Reynolds numbers without changing boundary conditions. Indeed, the Reynolds number we reached were higher than any previous classical grid wind-tunnel experiment. In this talk, we focus on the fundamental question of how fast turbulent energy decays once it has been created, and show that the Reynolds number plays no important role in setting the decay rate if it is high enough
Numerical study on effect of Reynolds number on dynamo action
We study the kinematic dynamo problem of a two dimensional turbulent flow with the third velocity component being advected as a passive scalar (2.5D flow). Both helical and nonhelical forcing is considered. The low-dimensionality of the system allows us to study it for a wide range of parameters of the system, here specifically the Reynolds number and the magnetic Reynolds number. We show that the small scale dynamo action depends on the Reynolds number. The critical magnetic Reynolds number after which small magnetic perturbations starts to grow for the nonhelical forcing case is found to be independent of the Reynolds number

Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless dissipation rate in stationary magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
Results on the Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless total dissipation rate C_ε are presented, obtained from medium to high resolution direct numerical simulations (DNSs) of mechanically forced stationary homogeneous magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the absence of a mean magnetic field, showing that C_ε -> const with increasing Reynolds number. Furthermore, a model equation for the Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless dissipation rate is derived from the real-space energy balance equation by asymptotic expansion in terms of Reynolds number of the second- and third-order correlation functions of the Elsässer fields z± = u ± b. At large Reynolds numbers we find that a model of the form C_ε = C_ε,∞ + C/R describes the data well, while at lower Reynolds numbers the model needs to be extended to second order in 1/R in order to obtain a good fit to the data, where R is a generalised Reynolds number with respect to the Elsässer field z-
Reynolds number effect on 3D turbulent offset jet reattaching to a free surface
Experimental study was carried out to investigate the effect of Reynolds number on 3D offset jet reattaching to above free surface. Sharp edged square nozzle was used to produce the jets, and the measurements were performed at the following six different Reynolds numbers: 2300, 3700, 5100, 7900, 10300 and 11900. Detailed velocity measurements were made in the symmetry plane. From the PIV data, the mean velocity and turbulence statistics were obtained to study the effects of Reynolds number on the salient features of the jet flow. Preliminary results on streamwise mean velocity decay along the nozzle centerline, contours of streamwise mean velocity and Reynolds shear stress are presented herein
Sheri Reynolds, 22nd Annual ODU Literary Festival
Sheri Reynolds has published both poetry and fiction in such venues as Chant and Allegheny Review. Her first novel, Bitterroot Landing, published in 1994, was nominated for the GRANTA Young American Author Award. Her second novel, The Rapture of Canaan, was published in 1995 and was an Oprah Book Club selection. Her third novel, A Gracious Plenty, was published in 1997 to high acclaim. Publishers Weekly said of A Gracious Plenty, Reynolds\u27s lyricism and the gentle voice of her heroine carry this poignant but redemptive story. Ms. Reynolds teaches in the MFA program at Old Dominion University
