Turbulence at the Lee bound: maximally non-normal vortex filaments and the decay of a local dissipation rate by Chris Keylock

“…Structures attaining this bound are preferentially generated where enstrophy exceeds total strain and there is a positive balance between strain production and enstrophy production. …”

On the wave equation with space dependent coefficients: singularities and lower order terms by Marco Discacciati, Claudia Garetto, Costas Loizou

“…Here we assume that the equation coefficients are depending on space only and we formulate Levi conditions on the lower order terms to guarantee the existence of a very weak solution as defined in (Garetto and Ruzhansky in Arch. …”

Stereo-PIV measurements of spatio-temporal turbulence correlations in an axisymmetric jet by C.D. Pokora, Jim McGuirk

“…Restricting attention to subsonic, isothermal jets, measurements were taken in a water flow experiment where, for the same Reynolds number and nozzle size, the shortest time scale of the dynamically important turbulent structures is more than an order of magnitude greater that in equivalent airflow experiments, greatly facilitating time-resolved PIV measurements. …”

Eulerian particle flamelet modelling of a bluff-body CH4/H2 flame by Anand Odedra, Weeratunge Malalasekera

“…The level of overprediction is severe with the steady approach. GRI Mech 3.0 appears to overpredict NO by a factor of 2 compared to GRI Mech 2.11. …”

The role of diffusion on the interface thickness in a ventilated filling box by N.B. Kaye, M.R. Flynn, Malcolm Cook, Y. Ji

“…This prediction has been corroborated by small-scale salt bath experiments; however, full-scale measurements in ventilated rooms and complementary numerical simulations suggest an interface that is not sharp but rather smeared out over a finite thickness. For a given plume buoyancy flux, as the cross-sectional area of the enclosure increases the volume of fluid that must be entrained by the plume to maintain a sharp interface also increases. …”
