Abstract:This study is an extension of our previous study [O. Iida, “Turbulent structure of stably stratified inhomogeneous flow,” Phys. Fluids 30, 045101 (2018)] where direct numerical simulations of a spectral method are performed for an inhomogeneous flow under stable density stratification by the inclusion of a fringe region where an artificial body force is imposed to make the flow locally disturbed, and thus, generated disturbances are horizontally diffused into the undisturbed laminar region. In this study, more… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
