de las fuerzas de flotabilidad sobre los ...
[EN] DNS of passive thermal turbulent Couette flow at several friction Reynolds numbers (180, 250, and 500), and the Prandtl number of air are presented. The time averaged thermal flow shows the existence of long and wide ...
[EN] Turbulent flow is widespread in many applications, such as airplane wings or turbine blades. Such flow is highly chaotic and impossible to predict far into the future. Some regions exhibit a coherent physical behavior ...
[EN] The existence of the large-scale structures appearing in turbulent Couette flows is studied by means of a direct numerical simulation data set of active thermal Couette flows for different friction Richardson numbers, ...
