曲壁湍流减阻

Turbulent drag reduction over curved walls

Jacopo Banchetti, Paolo Luchini, Maurizio Quadrio

摘要:

本文研究了弯曲壁面上湍流的表面摩擦减阻效应,以期了解摩擦减阻与总气动阻力变化之间的关系。直接数值模拟(DNS)进行了不可压缩的湍流在一个通道,其中一个壁有一个小的凸起,两个凸起的几何形状被认为是,产生轻度分离和附着流。摩擦阻力的减小是通过施加展向速度的流向行波(StTW)来实现的。由StTW产生的局部摩擦减少被发现沿着弯曲壁变化,导致全局摩擦减少,对于所研究的情况,比在平面壁情况下获得的摩擦减少大10%。此外,修改后的表面摩擦引起不可忽略的压力阻力的变化,这是有利的StTW的影响,并在全球范围内减少高达10%。净功率节省,占创建StTW所需的功率,是积极的,并且对于所研究的情况下,是一个比平面的情况下的净节省一半。该研究表明,减少复杂形状物体表面的摩擦会产生进一步的影响,对其进行简单的评估可能会导致低估总的减阻效果。

英文摘要:

This work studies the effects of skin-friction drag reduction in a turbulent flow over a curved wall, with a view to understanding the relationship between the reduction of friction and changes to the total aerodynamic drag. Direct numerical simulations (DNS) are carried out for an incompressible turbulent flow in a channel where one wall has a small bump; two bump geometries are considered, that produce mildly separated and attached flows. Friction drag reduction is achieved by applying streamwise-travelling waves of spanwise velocity (StTW). The local friction reduction produced by the StTW is found to vary along the curved wall, leading to a global friction reduction that, for the cases studied, is up to 10\% larger than that obtained in the plane-wall case. Moreover, the modified skin friction induces non-negligible changes of pressure drag, which is favorably affected by StTW and globally reduces by up to 10\%. The net power saving, accounting for the power required to create the StTW, is positive and, for the cases studied, is one half larger than the net saving of the planar case. The study suggests that reducing friction at the surface of a body of complex shape induces further effects, a simplistic evaluation of which might lead to underestimating the total drag reduction.
