强迫项的选择是否影响槽道湍流DNS中的流动统计?

Does the choice of the forcing term affect flow statistics in DNS of turbulent channel flow?

Maurizio Quadrio, Bettina Frohnapfel, Yosuke Hasegawa

摘要:

在不可压缩槽道流动的直接数值模拟(DNS)中,我们寻求在纳维-斯托克斯方程中加入强迫项的可能的统计结果。由恒定流速、恒定压力梯度和恒定功率输入驱动的模拟用于构建大型数据库,特别是用于存储壁面剪切应力的完整时间轨迹以供以后分析。由于这些方法对应于不同的动力学系统,原则上可以设想,这些差异由湍流场的某些统计反映。在各种模拟中流动的瞬时实现是明显不同的,但是,正如所预期的那样,通常的一点,一次统计没有显示出任何明显的差异。然而,壁面摩擦流向分量波动的PDF显示,恒定流速的模拟对于大的正摩擦的极端事件呈现较低的概率。这种事件的低概率值解释了它们对通常计算的统计量的贡献可以忽略不计;然而,PDF中差异的存在表明强迫项并非完全没有影响。基于壁的量(摩擦和压力的两个组成部分)的其他统计数据进行检查,特别是时空自相关显示在大的时间间隔,不幸的是,剩余的统计不确定性仍然是相同的顺序观察到的差异小的差异。因此,我们认为,具体选择的强迫项不产生重要的统计后果,除非有兴趣在最强的事件,高壁摩擦,这是低估了模拟运行在恒定的流量。

英文摘要:

We seek possible statistical consequences of the way a forcing term is added to the Navier--Stokes equations in the Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of incompressible channel flow. Simulations driven by constant flow rate, constant pressure gradient and constant power input are used to build large databases, and in particular to store the complete temporal trace of the wall-shear stress for later analysis. As these approaches correspond to different dynamical systems, it can in principle be envisaged that these differences are reflect by certain statistics of the turbulent flow field. The instantaneous realizations of the flow in the various simulations are obviously different, but, as expected, the usual one-point, one-time statistics do not show any appreciable difference. However, the PDF for the fluctuations of the streamwise component of wall friction reveals that the simulation with constant flow rate presents lower probabilities for extreme events of large positive friction. The low probability value of such events explains their negligible contribution to the commonly computed statistics; however, the very existence of a difference in the PDF demonstrates that the forcing term is not entirely uninfluential. Other statistics for wall-based quantities (the two components of friction and pressure) are examined; in particular spatio-temporal autocorrelations show small differences at large temporal separations, where unfortunately the residual statistical uncertainty is still of the same order of the observed difference. Hence we suggest that the specific choice of the forcing term does not produce important statistical consequences, unless one is interested in the strongest events of high wall friction, that are underestimated by a simulation run at constant flow rate.
