Transition to turbulence in pipe flow

M Avila, D Barkley, B Hof - Annual Review of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - annualreviews.org
Since the seminal studies by Osborne Reynolds in the nineteenth century, pipe flow has
served as a primary prototype for investigating the transition to turbulence in wall-bounded …

Patterns in wall-bounded shear flows

LS Tuckerman, M Chantry… - Annual Review of Fluid …, 2020 - annualreviews.org
Experiments and numerical simulations have shown that turbulence in transitional wall-
bounded shear flows frequently takes the form of long oblique bands if the domains are …

Oblique stripe solutions of channel flow

CS Paranjape, Y Duguet, B Hof - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 - cambridge.org
With decreasing Reynolds number, lower than the non-localised solutions. Relative periodic
orbit solutions bifurcating from branches of travelling waves have also been computed. A …

Statistical transition to turbulence in plane channel flow

S Gomé, LS Tuckerman, D Barkley - Physical Review Fluids, 2020 - APS
Intermittent turbulent-laminar patterns characterize the transition to turbulence in pipe, plane
Couette, and plane channel flows. The time evolution of turbulent-laminar bands in plane …

Extended localized structures and the onset of turbulence in channel flow

JJ Tao, B Eckhardt, XM Xiong - Physical Review Fluids, 2018 - APS
Many transitional shear flows show a regime of complex spatiotemporal dynamics that has
been linked to directed percolation. Using direct numerical simulations of plane-Poiseuille …

Experimental measurements in plane Couette–Poiseuille flow: dynamics of the large-and small-scale flow

[HTML][HTML] Sidewall effect on turbulent band in subcritical transition of high-aspect-ratio duct flow

K Kohyama, M Sano, T Tsukahara - Physics of Fluids, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
We numerically studied high-aspect-ratio channel flows with spanwise sidewalls, that is,
wide duct flows, in its subcritical turbulent transitional regime. The infinite channel flow is …

Patterns in transitional shear turbulence. Part 1. Energy transfer and mean-flow interaction

S Gomé, LS Tuckerman, D Barkley - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2023 - cambridge.org
Low Reynolds number turbulence in wall-bounded shear flows en route to laminar flow

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent heat transfer in concentric annular pipe flows

E Bagheri, BC Wang - Physics of Fluids, 2021 - pubs.aip.org
The effect of radius ratio on turbulent convective heat transfer within a concentric annular
pipe has been studied using direct numerical simulation. Four radius ratios (⁠ R i/R o= 0.1 …
