Anisotropy analysis of turbulent swirl flow

Anisotropy invariant map proposed by Lumley and Newman and barycentric map proposed by Banerjee et al. were used in order to estimate the degree of anisotropy in turbulent swirl flow. The differences in visual interpretations of anisotropy states in these two maps were analyzed and mathematical basi...

Description
Summary:Anisotropy invariant map proposed by Lumley and Newman and barycentric map proposed by Banerjee et al. were used in order to estimate the degree of anisotropy in turbulent swirl flow. The differences in visual interpretations of anisotropy states in these two maps were analyzed and mathematical basis of these two maps was derived. Experimental data reveal that there is significant influence of swirl on the anisotropy of turbulence. Anisotropy invariant mapping shows that different flow regions of swirl flow are characterized by different anisotropy states.
