Abstract:In nature and engineering applications, plunging jet acts as a key process causing interface breaking and generating mixed-phase turbulence. In this paper, high-resolution numerical simulation of water jet plunging into a quiescent pool was perform to investigate the statistical property of the mixed-phase turbulence, with special focus on the closure problem of the Reynolds-averaged equation. We conducted phase-resolved simulations, with the air-water interface captured using a coupled level-set and volumeof-… 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.
