Tosto, F. (author), Wheeler, Andrew (author), Pini, M. (author)In this work, we investigate the sources of dissipation in adiabatic boundary layers of non-ideal compressible fluid flows. Direct numerical simulations of transitional, zero-pressure gradient boundary layers are performed with an in-house solver considering two fluids characterized by different complexity of the fluid molecules, namely air...book chapter 2023

Tomas, J.M. (author), Pourquie, M.J.B.M. (author), Jonker, H.J.J. (author)Predicting pollutant dispersion in urban environments requires accurate treatment of obstacle geometry, inflow turbulence and temperature differences. This paper considers both the influence of thermal stratification and the presence of a single obstacle on pollutant dispersion in turbulent boundary layers (TBLs). Turbulent flow over a fence...journal article 2015

Souverein, L.J. (author)Shock wave boundary layer interactions (SWBLI) are a common phenomenon in transonic and supersonic flows. The presence of shock waves, induced by specific geometrical configurations, causes a rapid increase of the pressure, which can lead to flow separation. Examples of such interactions are found in amongst others rocket engine nozzles and on...doctoral thesis 2010

Humble, R.A. (author)A fundamental experimental study is carried out to investigate the unsteady flow organization of an incident shock wave/turbulent boundary layer interaction at Mach 2.1. Planar and tomographic particle image velocimetry (PIV) are used in combination with data processing using the proper orthogonal decomposition (POD), complemented with hot-wire...doctoral thesis 2009

Justesen, P. (author)Close to the bottom the no-slip condition will retard the flow and cause a boundary layer to develop. In nature this boundary layer will for most practical purposes be turbulent and the bed will be rough. Usually the boundary layer is confined to a thin layer close to the bed having a typical thickness of 0.2 m under surface gravity waves. The...report 1985

Hinze, J.O. (author), Sonnenberg, R.E. (author), Builtjes, P.J.H. (author)Measurements have been made of the distributions of mean velocity, turbulence intensities and turbulence shear-stress in a turbulent boundary-layer downstream of a hemi-spherical cap attached onto the plane rigid wall. The eddy-viscosity, when computed in the classical way according to Boussinesq's concept from the lateral gradient of the mean...report 1972
