Flow velocity in a tidal channel Velocity in all directions = mean + variation Milne et al. [2013] http: //rsta. royalsocietypublishing. org/content/371/1985/20120196
Velocity variations over 60 s at a point in a channel Milne et al. [2013]
Some characteristics • Flows become unstable at high Re • Laminar flow becomes perturbed Perturbation damped (low Re) Perturbation grows (high Re) • Vortices/eddies form, wide range of scales • Rapid mixing, momentum, mass, heat • Large vortices break up into smaller vortices • Energy dissipation • Large small vortex molecular motion heat
How to characterize turbulent flows Empirical Laws Manning (channels) Darcy-Weisbach (conduits) Izbash (porous) Forchheimer (porous) dh/dx q
Darcy-Weisbach Eqn. Pressure drop in pipes r r Low Re is fluid density, v is average velocity, d is pipe diameter, and f is the friction factor.

Turbulent Viscosity Boussinesq (1892) Turbulence dissipates energy in a way that is analogous to viscous dissipation In Turbulent flow
Classical models based on RANS 1. Zero equation model: mixing length model. 2. One equation model: Spalart-Almaras. 3. Two equation models: k- ε style models (standard, RNG, realizable), k- ω model 4. Seven equation model: Reynolds stress model.
k-e Method k: Turbulent kinetic energy e: Turbulence dissipation rate Cm: constant Need equations for k, e Assume k, e are conserved, use standard approach A= vc =vkr
k-e Method
Implementation
Boundary Conditions Inlet, Outlet, Wall, Open, other • No slip, wall = default • Specify inlet and outlet • Need to specify pressure somewhere • Dirichlet (specified pressure) • Neumann (specify velocity) n unit vector normal to boundary u flux vector C 1 known function
Options for boundary conditions Velocity (uniform) =0. 001 m/s Pressure=0 No viscous stress Laminar Inflow = 0. 001 m/s 1 m entrance length Pressure=0 No viscous stress Pressure = 1 No viscous stress Pressure=0 No viscous stress Need to calculate Pressure in top two cases, calculate velocity in bottom case
Wall Conditions • Need b. c. for k and e • Represent steep gradients at wall in turbulence http: //www. bakker. org/dartmouth 06/engs 150/11 -bl. pdf http: //www. efluids. com/efluids/gallery_pages/MWSmith_3. jsp
