Turbulence remains one of the key issues in tackling engineering flow problems. These problems are solved more and more by CFD analysis, the reliability of which depends strongly on the performance of the turbulence models employed. Successful simulation of turbulence requires the understanding of the complex physical phenomena involved and suitable models for describing the turbulent momentum, heat and mass transfer. For the understanding of turbulence phenomena, experiments are indispensable, but they are equally important for providing data for the development and testing of turbulence models and hence for CFD software validation.

Rapid Techniques for Measuring and Modeling Turbulent Flows in Complex Geometries

ABSTRACT


An approach to measure and model turbulent flows in complex configurations is presented. It is based on the synergistic use of two novel techniques: the experiments are based on magnetic resonance velocimetry, which allows the collection of a large three-dimensional volume of three-component velocity measurements in a short period of time. The numerical predictions are based on the immersed boundary technique that enables simulations to be carried out on Cartesian grids even for realistic, industrial configurations. Computer models of realistic geometries are used without modification in the simulations, and they are accurately reproduced for the experiments using rapid prototyping manufacturing. These two techniques enable analysis of flow systems in great detail by quickly providing a wealth of experimental and numerical data. Moreover, direct comparison between these datasets gives indications of the uncertainties in the data from both methods. Results are presented for the flow in a pipe and in a rib-roughened serpentine. In addition, preliminary measurements and simulations of the flow around a coral reef are included.

INTRODUCTION


The analysis of the turbulent flow in complex, industrial configurations is of great importance for improving the design and the performance of a wide variety of engineering devices.

Traditionally, such analysis is based on an experimental investigation that involves the construction of the device (typically in a reduced scale) and the direct measure of a few performance parameters. The detailed instrumentation of an industrial device can be extremely time-consuming and expensive. It is common to use only few probes for measuring pressure, flow rates, temperature, etc. and, as a consequence, their position plays a critical role in the significance of the collected data. Although these data yield valuable information, they do not provide enough information to identify areas of separation or other problematic regions that can cause performance reduction.

Several methodologies are available to collect more detailed measurements in flows. Laser Doppler anemometry (LDA) and Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) (Stanislas Kompenhans and Westerweel, 2000) are two non-invasive techniques. While LDA provides pointwise velocity measurements, PIV provides instantaneous two-dimensional velocity fields, and stereoscopic PIV provides three-component velocities in two-dimensional planes. All of these measurement techniques require optical access in the studied device and this limits their applications to simpler geometries. In addition, these measurements may be available only in selected positions or planes. In many realistic geometries, full coverage of the flow domain by LDA or PIV may be impossible or extremely time consuming.

Recently, a technique has been implemented in modern Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scanners to measure three-component velocity fields in three-dimensional complex geometries. This technique is called Magnetic Resonance Velocimetry (MRV). The method is based on the same principles used in MRI, now routinely employed in medical imaging. MRV is becoming popular in the study of blood flow in vascular medicine, and it has applications in the study of engineering flows as well. The typical fluid used in MRV experiments contains water since medical MRI scanners measure radio frequency signals from excited hydrogen nuclei in the presence of strong magnetic fields. More detailed discussion of MRV can be found in Elkins et al. (2003) and Markl et al. (2003).

One advantage of MRV is that it provides detailed three-dimensional data very quickly; a typical scan of a volume of size 32 × 200 × 200 mm with a resolution of about 1 mm can be obtained in less than 30 minutes. Another major advantage of MRV is its ability to measure data in complex geometries without the need for optical access. Flow models are typically fabricated using rapid prototyping manufacturing processes (i.e. stereo-lithography). There are several well-documented drawbacks to the MRV technique including signal dephasing due to turbulence and spatial misregistration due to strong accelerations in the flow. In addition, MRV provides only mean velocity measurements and knowledge of turbulence quantities can be important. These shortcomings are being investigated by the authors in an effort to improve MRV.

The other existing approach to study and design engineering systems is Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). Numerical flow simulations have become a common tool and several software tools are available in the industrial community. CFD calculations are carried out in two steps: the first is the geometry acquisition and mesh generation, and the second is the actual flow simulation. The geometry acquisition requires the transfer of a configuration, typically generated in a Computer-Aided-Design (CAD) environment, into a CFD mesh generation system. This process is very time consuming as the operating principles (geometry definition, tolerances, etc.) of the two software environments can be quite different. Once a watertight definition of the device to be studied is available in the mesh generator, the air-solid has to be defined. The air-solid represents the volume that is effectively occupied by the fluid (typically it is just the negative of the real device). A computational grid, i.e. a collection of small Computational Volumes (CV) covering the entire air-solid, is then generated in a semi-automatic way. Control on the resolution and the quality - the size and shape of the CVs, respectively – of the grid requires substantial user-intervention and might be very time-consuming. Once a grid is available, the solution of the equations governing the flow can be carried out.

For complex applications, the use of CFD is still challenging as the first phase of the process described above can be quite difficult and time consuming. Techniques that simplify and automate the grid generation have great potential in sustaining the widespread use of CFD. The Immersed Boundary (IB) method eliminates the need for the construction of the air-solid thus simplifying substantially both the geometry acquisition and the mesh generation phases. The IB method (Mittal and Iaccarino, 2005) uses a mesh that covers the entire computational domain (typically a large box) without the device of interest; the effect of this on the flow is then accounted for by modifying the governing equations through source terms that mimic the presence of the solid boundaries. Cartesian mesh techniques were introduced for fluid flow simulation in the 70s (Peskin, 1972) but only recently have been applied to complex, industrial flows and in the turbulent regime (Iaccarino and Verzicco, 2003).

The availability of the MRV and IB techniques to study turbulent flows in realistic configurations creates an opportunity for a new paradigm in engineering design as measurements and simulations can be used together. The combined MRV-IB approach provides a wealth of information for the designer at a resolution that is well above what is usually available. The data are typically complementary as the two techniques have different strengths and weaknesses but provide enough overlap to create confidence in the results.

In this paper some applications of the MRV-IB approach are presented with the objective of illustrating the advantages of the techniques. Comparisons of the results obtained using the two methods to more conventional PIV measurements are presented to evaluate their accuracy. As the two techniques are relatively new, further research is currently ongoing to fully evaluate their capabilities; this aspect is discussed at the end of the paper.

MEASURING TECHNIQUE: MAGNETIC RESONANCE VELOCIMETRY


MRV is a non-invasive experimental method for measuring mean velocities using modern medical Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems. All of the measurements presented in this paper were made using a 1.5 T GE Signa CV/I system (Gmax = 40mT/m, rise time = 268 microsecs). For a discussion of the principles of MRI, the reader is referred to Stark and Bradley (1999), von Schultess and Hennig (1998), and Haacke et al. (1999). In addition, a brief discussion of MRV principles is found in Elkins et al. (2003) where the MRV technique is described in detail.

Most MRI systems image hydrogen protons which are abundant in the fluids and tissues in living things. Protons have magnetic moments (spins) that align with the direction of a strong magnetic field. If knocked out of alignment with the external magnetic field, the spins will relax back into alignment and precess about the field direction with a frequency proportional to the strength of the magnetic field. Hence, when a spatial magnetic field gradient is applied to create a continuously varying magnetic field, the spins along the direction of the gradient have different precession frequencies. This principle can be exploited to image an object. In imaging, the spins are knocked out of alignment with a strong, constant field. Then a magnetic field gradient is applied. As the spins relax back into alignment with the constant field, they broadcast RF signals, each...
