Turbulence modulation effects caused by small droplets using one-dimensional-turbulence
Doktorsavhandling, 2020
For an efficient investigation of turbulence modulation effects, ODT has been extended in this thesis in many ways. First, the Lagrangian particle tracking method developed by Schmidt et al. was modified for spatial, cylindrical flow simulations. Therefore, the two-way coupling mechanism was extended as well. This case serves to study the overall influence of particles on a jet configuration, which conforms with the droplet-laden flow in the dilute region of a spray. Here, the most significant effects are expected. Secondly, a concept for developing a SGS model is presented. Based on this concept, ODT was modified to capture two canonical test cases of stationary, forced isotropic turbulence (HIT) and homogeneous shear turbulence (HST). For this purpose, a forcing scheme that maintains statistical stationarity and a new energy redistribution mechanism during the eddy events are introduced. The latter enables ODT to predict anisotropic turbulent structures. ODT is validated against several data sets of DNS studies and showed its capability to access parameter ranges beyond previous limits. It turned out to have a lot of potential to contribute to a SGS closure of LES for turbulence modulation caused by small droplets.

In particular, we focus on the momentum and energy exchange between small droplets and the gas phase surrounding them. Because a very detailed assessment of this exchange is computationally very expensive, an approach is presented to bridge the gap between highly-detailed and affordable simulation frameworks, utilizing a dimension-reduced approach called one-dimensional-turbulence (ODT).
This thesis presents the modifications of the ODT approach to capture the desired exchange between small droplets and the gas phase. Additionally, it points out the opportunity ODT is giving to improve the current state-of-the-art frameworks, which are used to simulate the entire injection process.
The final outcome can serve as the foundation for many extension to study e.g. a wider variety of flows or different droplet properties. All of these studies will lead to a better understanding of the injection itself and will enable us to emit less exhaust gases.
