Spatial evolution of the turbulent/turbulent interface geometry in a cylinder wake

Abstract: This study aims to examine the spatial evolution of the geometrical features of the turbulent/turbulent interface (TTI) in a cylinder wake. The wake is exposed to various turbulent backgrounds in which the turbulence intensity and the integral length scale are varied independently, and comparisons to a turbulent/non-turbulent interface (TNTI) are drawn. The turbulent wake was marked with a high Schmidt number ( $Sc$ ) scalar, and a planar laser induced fluorescence experiment was carr… Show more

“…As for the shear layer developing along the body side, the entrainment processes in the wake are associated with the continuous deformation and folding of the interface wake by turbulent structures thus causing its spreading. As shown in figure 17( a ), the growth of the interface position in the near-wake region is initially fast and exhibit a transition towards lower rates around , and from the lowest to the highest Reynolds number, see Chen & Buxton (2023) where an analogous phenomenon is observed for the wake of a circular cylinder under different levels of ambient turbulence. This more rapid transition towards slower growth rates leads to a shrinking of the wake width with Reynolds and it is at the basis of the already observed decrease in the self-similarity constant .…”
