A Turbulent Plume in Crossflow
摘要
The behaviour of a turbulent forced buoyant plume subjected to uniform crossflow is investigated utilising Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) employing a fourth-order finite difference scheme and third-order Adams-Bashforth temporal integration. The flow features are assessed phenomenologically in the statistically steady state obtained by averaging 1,200 instantaneous 3D fields. Preliminary results on the structure of turbulent production and dissipation are shown in view of future discussions on LES modeling assumptions.
