Effect of the turbulent viscosity relaxation time on the modeling of nozzle and jet flows. (English. Russian original) Zbl 1302.76075

Fluid Dyn. 49, No. 5, 694-702 (2014); translation from Izv. Ross. Akad. Nauk, Mekh. Zhidk. Gaza 2014, No. 5, 149-159 (2014).
Summary: Certain modifications of three-equation turbulence models are proposed. They are intended for increasing the accuracy of the calculations of turbulent flows in nozzles with boundary layer separation and in supersonic jets with complicated shock wave structures. Basing on the idea of the inclusion of flow prehistory in terms of an additional relaxation equation for nonequilibrium turbulent viscosity we propose three modifications of the \(k-\omega-\mu_t\) model based on the \(k-\omega\) model and a version of the \(k-\epsilon-\mu_t\) turbulence model. In these modifications we introduce an additional dependence of the nonequilibrium turbulent viscosity relaxation time on different physical parameters which can be important near the point of boundary layer separation from the nozzle wall, such as viscous effects and effects of large gradients of the mean velocity and the kinetic energy of turbulence (turbulent pressure). The comparison of the results of the calculations with the experimental data shows that all the proposed versions of the three-equation models make it possible to improve the accuracy of the calculations of turbulent flows in nozzles and jets.
