Turbulent flow in a ribbed channel analysed by the proper orhtogonal decomposition

Abstract
Particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurements and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) are used to explore the turbulent structures in a ribbed channel. In this study, only one channel wall is equipped with square ribs which are oriented transversely to the main stream direction. The ribs obstruct the channel by 20% of its height and are arranged 10 rib heights apart. The results include mean streamlines, Reynolds shear stresses, two-point correlation coefficients, POD eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. By means of the POD analysis, the underlying flow features are identified, which are the strong upward ejections from the leading edge of the rib. Essentially, these motions give rise to the sharp peaks in the fluctuating turbulent kinetic... (More)
