TLDR
A direct numerical simulation database of high-speed zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers developing spatially over a flat plate with nominal freestream Mach number ranging from 2.5 to 14 and wall-to-recovery temperature ranging from 0.18 to 1.0 is presented.Abstract:
In this paper, we present a direct numerical simulation database of high-speed zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers developing spatially over a flat plate with nominal freestream Mach number ranging from 2.5 to 14 and wall-to-recovery temperature ranging from 0.18 to 1.0. The flow conditions of the DNS are representative of the operational conditions of the Purdue Mach 6 quiet tunnel, the Sandia Hypersonic Wind Tunnel at Mach 8, and the AEDC Hypervelocity Tunnel No. 9 at Mach 14. The DNS database is used to gauge the performance of compressibility transformations, including the classical Morkovin's scaling and strong Reynolds analogy as well as the newly proposed mean velocity and temperature scalings that explicitly account for wall heat flux. Several insights into the effect of direct compressibility are gained by inspecting the thermodynamic fluctuations and the Reynolds stress budget terms. Precomputed flow statistics, including Reynolds stresses and their budgets, will be available at the website of the NASA Langley Turbulence Modeling Resource, allowing other investigators to query any property of interest.read more

HTR solver: An open-source exascale-oriented task-based multi-GPU high-order code for hypersonic aerothermodynamics
TL;DR: The HTR solver uses high-order TENO-based spatial discretization on structured grids and efficient time integrators for stiff systems, is highly scalable in GPU-based supercomputers as a result of its implementation in the Regent/Legion stack, and is designed for direct numerical simulations of canonical hypersonic flows at high Reynolds numbers.

Data-driven compressibility transformation for turbulent wall layers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose to re-map both the wall-normal space coordinate and velocity profile, achieving excellent universality for both internal and boundary-layer flows across a wide range of flow parameters.

Decomposition of the mean friction drag in zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers
TL;DR: Li et al. as discussed by the authors decompose the mean friction drag in incompressible (250 ≤ Reτ ≤ 1270) and compressible (M = 2.0) zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layers (TBLs) into three physics-informed contributions, by using the identity of Renard and Deck.

Low-storage Runge-Kutta schemes
TL;DR: All second-order, many third- order, and a few fourth-order Runge-Kutta schemes can be arranged to require only two storage locations per variable, compared with three needed by Gill's method.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a low-speed, high-Reynolds-number facility and a high-resolution laser-Doppler anemometer to measure Reynolds stresses for a flat-plate turbulent boundary layer from Reθ = 1430 to 31 000.

The analysis and modelling of dilatational terms in compressible turbulence
TL;DR: It is proposed that, in moderate Mach number homogeneous turbulence, the compressible component of the turbulence is in quasi-equilibrium with respect to the incompressible turbulence.
