CY - Magdeburg ER - TY - GEN A1 - Tsai, Pei-Yun A1 - Schmidt, Heiko A1 - Klein, Marten T1 - Modeling simultaneous momentum and passive scalar transfer in turbulent annular Poiseuille flow T2 - Proceedings in applied mathematics and mechanics : PAMM N2 - Simultaneous momentum and passive scalar transfer in weakly heated pressure-driven turbulent concentric annular pipe flow is numerically investigated using the cylindrical formulation of the stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model,which is utilized here as standalone tool. In the present study, we focus on the model calibration for heated annular pipes based on recent reference direct numerical simulations (DNS) from Bagheri and Wang (Int. J. Heat Fluid Flow 86, 108725,2020; Phys. Fluids 33, 055131, 2021). It is shown that the model is able to individually capture scalar and momentum transfer, but not both equally well at the same time. We attribute this to less dissimilar scalar and momentum transport in the model at the low Reynolds number investigated. It is argued that the model prefers a fully developed turbulent state due to its construction. Nevertheless, it is demonstrated that ODT is able to reasonably capture the radial inner-outer asymmetry of the scalar and momentum boundary layers which yields better predictive capabilities than wall-function-based approaches.

The relative contributions are expressed by a local Nusselt number that depends on the radius ratio, the Prandtl number, and the Reynolds number. Direct numerical simulation (DNS) has been used previously to infer closure relations constrained to weakly turbulent flow due to numerical resource requirements. Here, stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) is utilized as a standalone tool as an alternative to DNS. ODT offers full-scale resolution along a representative radial domain, providing predictive capabilities relative to a calibrated reference case at a radically reduced cost. On average, ODT obeys radial balance equations compatible with the Navier-Stokes equations. Separating the boundary layer into a diffusion and a mixing-length dominated region in cylindrical geometry yields wall-curvature corrections at the inner wall. The proposed expressions can be used to enhance prescribed wall functions, for example, in Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulations.

It is demonstrated that the wall-adapting local eddy-viscosity (WALE) model within a large-eddy simulation (LES) framework, without model parameter recalibration, has limited predictive capabilities as signalized by poor representation of wall curvature effects and notable grid dependence. The identified lack in the modeling of radial transport processes is therefore addressed here by utilizing a stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model. A standalone ODT formulation for cylindrical geometry is used in order to assess to which extent the predictability can be expected to improve by utilizing an advanced wall-modeling strategy.

To model the flow, a stochastic one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model formulated for cylindrical geometry is used that provides full-scale resolution along a representative radial coordinate. The present investigation extends the model validation by Tsai et al. (PAMM,22:e202200272, 2023), to radius ratios smaller than 0.1 and addresses boundary layers with strong span-wise curvature effects. The focus is on the assessment and analysis of statistical flow features in the vicinity of the inner cylinder wall, particularly in cases with small radius ratios. Following Boersma & Breugem (Flow Turbul. Com-bust.,86:113–127, 2011), classical boundary-layer and mixing-length theory is utilized to analyze the model predictions. The results demonstrate that the ODT model captures leading-order curvature and mixing-length effects by its physics-compatible construction. Utilizing the model for extrapolation to high Reynolds numbers inaccessible to conventional high-fidelity numerical approaches shows that curvature effects persist and nonlocally affect the entire boundary layer. The model results provide support for a spanwise-curvature-modified wall function.

The main objective of this work is to more accurately predict the heat transfer in tubular heat exchangers at low Prandtl numbers by extending the analysis for weak temperature fluctuations as recently introduced in Tsai et al., Proceedings in Applied Mathematics and Mechanics, 23:e202300167, 2023. The ODT model offers the required predictive capabilities at affordable cost by providing full‐scale resolution of viscous, conductive, and turbulent advective transport processes along a representative radial coordinate. The Prandtl numbers and are considered for which the radius ratio of the annular pipe and the Reynolds number are varied. Numerical results demonstrate that the geometry (radius ratio) has a significant influence on the thermal boundary layer that emerges over the inner and outer curved wall, respectively. Application of boundary layer theory and mixing length arguments yield an analytical expression that includes both Reynolds number and curvature effects. Unknown closure coefficients are estimated with ODT, providing a physically based correlation for the Nusselt number.

The dimensionally reduced ODT domain enables fully resolved numerical simulations of the flow across the radial gap between the cylindrical inner wall and the cylindrical outer wall. The model is calibrated with available reference data at low bulk Reynolds number for a wide (radius ratio ) and a moderate () gap. Making use of the model’s predictive capabilities, radius ratio and Reynolds number effects are investigated, reaching bulk Reynolds numbers as large as . Despite the large values reached, spanwise wall-curvature effects remain sensible in the momentum boundary layer. The effects are more pronounced for larger wall curvature and to leading orders restricted to the convex cylindrical inner wall. Wall-curvature corrections to the law of the wall are obtained for both the viscous and Reynolds-stress dominated regions by fitting analytically derived expressions for the flow profile to the stochastic simulation data, demonstrating physical compatibility with Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes flow. Second-order and detailed fluctuation statistics demonstrate the permeating and nonlocal influence of spanwise wall curvature on the turbulent boundary layer. Surrogate model output in terms of conditional eddy event statistics reveals that the disparity between the near-inner and near-outer wall turbulence increases with Reynolds number for small radius ratios, suggesting that annular pipe flows require wall-curvature-aware wall models even at very large Reynolds numbers.
