Simultaneous gas-phase temperature and velocity imaging using micrometer-size thermographic phosphor particles seeded into the flow is demonstrated at a 3 kHz repetition rate. The velocity field is measured using a standard particle image velocimetry approach, while the temperature is determined from the temperature sensitive phosphorescence emission of the particles following excitation at 355 nm. Since the particles are very small, they rapidly assume the temperature and velocity of the surrounding gas. A single shot temperature precision of better than 5 % was achieved at 500 K. Time-resolved measurements in the wake of a heated cylinder are presented, demonstrating the utility of these imaging diagnostics to observe transient, coupled heat and mass transfer phenomena.

Comparative study of turbulent mixing in jet in cross-flow configurations using LES

The flow field of a turbulent jet emerging from a straight round pipe into a laminar crossflow is investigated by means of large eddy simulations. The concentration of a passive scalar, introduced with the jet, is calculated in order to quantify the mixing of the jet and the crossflow. In the jet, swirl is introduced by means of body forces and a range of jet swirl numbers from S = 0 up to S = 0.6 is studied. The impact of the jet swirl on the flow field, on the coherent structures, and on the mixing efficiency is investigated and quantified by means of various analyses. It is found that for all swirl numbers larger than zero a clear asymmetry appears in all quantities studied. Additional to the two hanging vortices at both sides of the jet a third vortex is introduced by the swirling pipe flow which interacts with the former. This feature is described in detail as it is not mentioned in the literature. For the strongest swirl investigated a recirculation zone near the jet exit is observed. Despite the asymmetry and even with a recirculation zone at the outlet, the counter-rotating vortex pair still exists in all cases in the downstream flow, where it entrains a large amount of crossflow fluid into the jet. The near field, however, is altered by the jet swirl in several respects. The jet more and more approaches the bottom wall with increasing swirl. As a result, the entrainment is gradually attenuated due to the larger blocking of the secondary flow by the wall. Increased swirl increases both the turbulent kinetic energy in the pipe and the vorticity of the average flow field near the jet exit, and thus stimulates the mixing in these regions. However, this stimulating effect is overwhelmed by the closer position of the jet trajectory to the wall of the channel with increasing swirl, which in turn reduces entrainment of fresh crossflow fluid into the jet. As a final result of these two competing effects, the overall mixing efficiency of a jet into a crossflow is merely unchanged with the addition of swirl. Various mixing indices, both spatial and temporal, are used for this analysis. Their respective advantages and disadvantages are discussed and detailed illustrations provide a sound understanding of their behavior.

Large-eddy simulations (LES) of temperature fluctuations in a mixing tee with/without a porous medium

This work presents an experimental approach to the direct determination of the sub-grid scale scalar flux used in Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Two non-reacting jet-flow configurations were examined, one with the jet temperature similar to the ambient air temperature and one preheated jet. Hence data were obtained for varying viscosities. Each case was investigated for two different, high Reynolds numbers of 17,471 and 31,714. For the measurements of mixture fraction and flow velocity field a finest resolution of almost 100 μm was achieved. Thus both the sub-grid scale scalar flux as well as the spatially filtered quantities can be obtained from the same data set. The data were acquired by the simultaneous application of planar laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) and particle image velocimetry (PIV).

Experimental Determination of the Sub-grid Scale Scalar Flux in a Non-Reacting Jet-Flow

Experimental Assessment of Scalar Flux Models for Large Eddy Simulations of Non-Reacting Flows

In this work, Large Eddy Simulation (LES) has been carried out to analyze the turbulent mixing processes in an impinging jet configuration. To characterize and quantify turbulent mixing processes, in terms of scalar structures and degree of mixing, three parameters have been basically introduced. They are “mixedness parameter”, which represents the probability of mixed fluids in computational domain, the Spatial Mixing Deficiency (SMD) and the Temporal Mixing Deficiency (TMD) parameters for characterizing the mixing at different scalar scale degrees. With help of these parameters, a general mixing optimization procedure has then been suggested and achieved in an impinging jet configuration. An optimal jet angle was estimated and the overall mixing degree with this jet angle reached around six times more than the original design. It turns out that the proposed idea and methodology can be helpful for practical engineering design processes.Copyright © 2006 by ASME
