Turbulence Models Flashcards
1
Q
What are the three types of viscous flows?
A
Laminar
Turbulent
Transitional
2
Q
What are characteristics of turbulent flow?
A
Highly fluctuating velocity field
3

A
At sufficiently high Reynolds Number, small scale turbulent motions are statistically isotropic
Energy cascade transfer KE from largest to smallest scales
