Direct numerical simulation of the interaction between a shock wave and various types of isotropic turbulence
TL;DR: In this article, direct numerical simulation is used to study the interaction between normal shock waves of moderate strength and isotropic turbulence, and a complete description of the turbulence behaviour across the shock is provided and the influence of the nature of the incoming turbulence on the interaction is investigated.

Transient natural convection in a cylindrical enclosure at high Rayleigh numbers
TL;DR: In this paper, the transient state of natural convection in a vertical cylindrical enclosure is studied numerically for water at high Rayleigh numbers, extending into values characteristic of the turbulent flow regime.

Numerical prediction of local hot-spot phenomena in transformer windings
TL;DR: In this article, an open source CFD code is used for predicting the mixed-convection flow of coolant in a low-voltage transformer winding, and it is found that the CFD model predicts the presence of hot-plumes in some of the horizontal cooling ducts.

The prediction of laminarization with a two-equation model of turbulence
W.P. Jones,Brian Launder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the local turbulent viscosity is determined from the solution of transport equations for the turbulence kinetic energy and the energy dissipation rate, and the predicted hydrodynamic and heat-transfer development of the boundary layers is in close agreement with the measured behaviour.

The calculation of low-Reynolds-number phenomena with a two-equation model of turbulence
W.P. Jones,Brian Launder +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present numerical predictions of various turbulent shear flows in which the structure of the viscous sublayer exerts appreciable influence on the flow, where the turbulence energy and its dissipation rate are calculated by way of transport equations which are solved simultaneously with the conservation equations for the mean flow.

Heat and mass transfer from rotating cones
C. L. Tien,D. T. Campbell +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, heat transfer by convection from isothermal rotating cones is investigated experimentally by measuring the sublimation rate from naphthalene-coated cones and using the analogy between heat and mass transfer.
