Pinelli, Alfredo ; Benocci, C. ; Deville, M. | 1992An original method for preconditioning Chebyshev collocated advection-diffusion operators is proposed. The preconditioner, based on an upwind finite difference approximation, is tested on one and two dimensional problems with both Neumann and Di[...]![]()

Pinelli, Alfredo ; Uhlmann, Markus ; Sekimoto, Atshushi ; Kawahara, Genta | Cambridge University Press | 2010We have performed direct numerical simulations of turbulent flows in a square duct considering a range of Reynolds numbers spanning from a marginal state up to fully developed turbulent states at low Reynolds numbers. The main motivation stems f[...]![]()

The primitive variable formulation of the unsteady incompressible Navier-Stokes equations in three space dimensions is discretized with a combined Fourier-Legendre spectral method. A semi-implicit pressure correction scheme is applied to decoupl[...]![]()

Numerical experiments on modified turbulent channels at moderate Reynolds numbers are used to differentiate between several possible regeneration cycles for the turbulent fluctuations in wall-bounded flows. It is shown that a cycle exists which [...]![]()

The near-wall region is the only place in zero-pressure-gradient boundary layer where the production of turbulent energy exceeds dissipation. The excess energy helps maintain turbulence in the core region, where the opposite is true. It is shown[...]![]()

The appearance of secondary flow of Prandtl’s second kind is a well-known phenomenon in fully developed turbulent rectangular duct flow. The intensity of the secondary flow is two orders of magnitude smaller than that of the mean streamwise velo[...]![]()

Kawahara, Genta ; Jiménez, J. ; Uhlmann, Markus ; Pinelli, Alfredo | Japan Society of Mechanical Engineers | 2000The linear stability analysis has been performed at Re.TAU.=180 for a turbulent-channel-type base flow with a periodic undulation in the spanwise direction in order to elucidate the generation mechanism of streamwise vorticity through the instab[...]![]()

The near-wall region is characterized by the presence of organized structures [1], but the way in which they interact to maintain the local dynamics and to extract energy from the mean flow is still controversial. The two dominant structures are[...]![]()

Nowadays, the most used techniques to design dense gas-solid flow reactors rely upon numerical predictions obtained from hydrodynamic models, usually derived through some averaging processes of the complete conservation equations. The averaging [...]![]()

We present numerically determined travelling-wave solutions for pressure-driven flow through a straight duct with a square cross-section. This family of solutions represents typical coherent structures (a staggered array of counter-rotating stre[...]![]()

Isothermal, incompressible flow in a straight duct with square cross-section is known to be linearly stable [1]. Direct numerical simulation, on the other hand, has revealed that turbulence in this geometry is self-sustained above a Reynolds num[...]
