On the relation of near-wall streamwise vortices to wall skin friction in turbulent boundary layers

Kravchenko, Arthur G., Choi, Haecheon, Moin, Parviz·1993·Physics of Fluids A: Fluid Dynamics

Abstract

Databases from direct numerical simulations of fully developed turbulent channel flow were used to examine the relation between skin-friction on the wall and streamwise vortices observed near the wall. It is shown that the wall shear rate correlates with streamwise vortices near the wall and that the maximum correlation occurs downstream and with lateral displacement from the location of skin-friction measurement. Conditionally-averaged statistics taken near high skin-friction regions indicate that the higher skin-friction values are associated with streamwise vortices located closer to the wall. Visual studies of the time evolution of near-wall streamwise vortices and skin-friction on the wall also indicate that the high skin-friction footprints on the wall can be attributed to streamwise vortices.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
