Incorporation of acceleration effects into the One-dimensional-turbulence model, with application to turbulent combustion and shock-turbulence interactions
- One-dimensional turbulence (ODT) is a stochastic simulation in which 3D turbulence effects are captured on a notional 1D line of sight by introducing instantaneous spatial rearrangements (maps) that represent advection by notional turbulent eddies. These eddy events incorporate the possibility of kinetic-energy changes that are equal and opposite to changes of other forms of energy such as the gravitational potential energy change due to a rearrangement of a vertical density profile. This illustrates that motion aligned with an applied force, in this case gravitation g, can be associated with energy change. Using this principle, we 1) present a model of turbulence interaction with the dilatational acceleration caused by thermal expansion in flames and show results for a turbulent counterflow flame with comparison to DNS and 2) present a model for shock-induced turbulence and show results for mixing width
growth in a shock tube with comparison to experiments.
