Mr. Malin et Ba. Younis, THE PREDICTION OF TURBULENT TRANSPORT IN AN AXIALLY ROTATING PIPE, International communications in heat and mass transfer, 24(1), 1997, pp. 89-98
Two Reynolds stress transport closures are adopted for modelling flow
and heat transfer in fully-developed, axially-rotating pipe flow. Mode
lled transport equations are solved for the turbulent stresses and hea
t fluxes, and the turbulence-energy dissipation rate. Numerical calcul
ations are performed with and without rotation, and the results show t
hat both models simulate the strong attenuation of turbulent transport
due to rotation. The model solutions are in reasonable agreement with
published data and large eddy simulations. Copyright (C) 1997 Elsevie
