About temperature dependency of surface tensions in mixtures of lecithin in 3-hydroxypropionitrile
No full textThe surface tension temperature dependency of lecithin in 3-hydroxypropionitrile (3-HPN) was studied by means of the BP-2 bubble pressure tensiometer developed by KRUESS. The dynamic surface tension curves of dilute. lecithin solutions show a surprising temperature dependency within the range of 5-40 degreesC at 5 degreesC intervals and an "inversion point" was noticed. At higher concentrations of lecithin the observed inversion point disappears. The surface tensions recorded for long time periods are in agreement with selected data determined by means of the Wilhelmy plate method. The. dynamic surface tensions at 50 s were fitted by the general exponential function y =A exp (-x/ b) + c with x as the concentration. The obtained parameter b hereby equals the concentration intersection. point of the asymptotes ( x and x --> 0) and yields the value of the; critical aggregation concentration:. (cac). The strong linear temperature dependency of the determined cac values within the range of 0.22 mmol/kg (5 degreesC) to 0.716 mmol/ kg (40 degreesC) is remarkable. Diffusion coefficients of the dilute solutions were calculated by the Ward and Tordai equation. assuming a diffusion controlled adsorption mechanism. Similar to the determined surface tensions at 50 s, the diffusion coefficients of the dilute solutions show itself an unusual temperature dependency. This may support the assumption of a change in orientation of the lecithin lipid at the surface. Above the cac the temperature dependency of the diffusion coefficient follows the general Arrhenius law. The calculated molar fractions and absolute amounts of lecithin on the surface show an expected temperature dependency [1] in distinction of the surface excess amounts

A Dynamic Subfilter-scale Stress Model for Large Eddy Simulations Based on Physical Flow Scales
No full textWe propose a new definition of the length scale in an eddy-viscosity model for large-eddy simulations (LES). This formulation extends and generalizes a previous proposal [Piomelli, Rouhi and Geurts, Proc. ETMM10, 2014], in which the LES length scale was expressed in terms of the integral length-scale of turbulence determined by the flow characteristics and explicitly decoupled from the simulation grid; this approach was named Integral Length-Scale Approximation (ILSA). As in the original ILSA, the model coefficient was determined by the user, and required to maintain a desired contribution of the unresolved, subfilter scales (SFS) to the global transport. We propose a local formulation (local ILSA) in which the model coefficient is local in space, allowing a precise control over SFS activity as a function of location. This new formulation preserves the properties of the global model; application to channel flow and backward-facing step verifies its features and accuracy
Large-eddy simulation of a separated flow with a sub-filter scale model based on the integral length-scale
No full textA new sub-filter scale model for large-eddy simulations, which uses a length-scale proportional to the integral scale of the turbulence instead of the grid resolution to parametrize the modelled stresses, will be assessed in the prediction of the flow of a boundary-layer over a rough surface, which includes separation and reattachment
Near Wall PIV-Measurements on the Windward Slope of a Hill
No full textThe turbulent flow over periodic hills was measured near to the wall, using planar Particle-Image-Velocimetry (PIV) at high spatial resolution. Our focus is on the near wall turbulence structure on the windward slope of the hill. For large-eddy simulation (LES) we suspect that, if this was not predicted accurately, it affects the prediction of the velocity profiles over the hill crest which in turn will affect the recirculation length downstream of the hill. Regarding the time averaged velocities, we were able to resolve the linear viscous region of the boundary layer. The velocity distribution and also the Reynolds stress does not comply with the law of the wall as it is valid for a turbulent boundary layer at equilibrium
Energy dissipation and flux laws for unsteady turbulence
No full textDirect Numerical Simulations of spatially periodic unsteady turbulence show that the high Reynolds number scalings of the instantaneous energy dissipation rate and interscale energy flux at intermediate wavenumbers are qualitatively different from the well-known cornerstone scalings of equilibrium turbulence where and are time-dependent rms velocity and integral length-scales. Instead, they both scale as where and are length and velocity scales characterizing initial/overall unsteady turbulence conditions
Direct numerical simulation of turbulent Couette-Poiseuille flow with zero skin friction
No full textThe near-wall scaling of mean velocity U(y) is addressed for the case of zero skin friction on one wall of a fully turbulent channel flow. The present DNS results can be added to the evidence in support of the conjecture that U is proportional to √yw in the region just above the wall at which the mean shear dU/dy = 0
Real-space Manifestations of Bottlenecks in Turbulence Spectra
No full textAn energy-spectrum bottleneck, a bump in the turbulence spectrum between the inertial and dissipation ranges, is shown to occur in the non-turbulent, one-dimensional, hyperviscous Burgers equation and found to be the Fourier-space signature of oscillations in the real-space velocity, which are explained by boundary-layer-expansion techniques. Pseudospectral simulations are used to show that such oscillations occur in velocity correlation functions in one- and three-dimensional hyperviscous hydrodynamical equations that display genuine turbulence
