JMBC course
“Turbulence”
TU Delft, 9-12 May 2016
(registration
closed)
·
Description
This course gives an introduction to the fundamentals
of turbulence. It is aimed at PhD students and other researchers from the JM Burgerscentrum. Prerequisite knowledge of turbulence is not
required, though may be helpful to keep up with the pace of the lectures. Basic
knowledge of fluid mechanics is assumed. The first 2 days of the course are
dedicated to classical turbulence theory such as can be found in the textbooks
of S.B. Pope (Turbulent Flows), P.A. Davidson (Turbulence) and Tennekes & Lumley (A First Course in Turbulence), among
others. It concerns the qualitative behavior, the statistical description, the
underlying physics and the modelling of turbulence. During two plenary homework
sessions a few assignments will be given and discussed in order to practice
with theory. In the afternoon of day 2 an introduction will be given in
turbulence modelling (CFD). The performance of several popular turbulence
models will be demonstrated in a computer practical on day 4. Day 3 is
dedicated to advanced numerical methods (DNS/LES) and experimental techniques
(PIV/LDA) used in turbulence research. Guest lectures will be given by Prof.
Hunt on recent developments in turbulence research (day 3), Prof. Lohse on
turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection and Taylor-Couette flow (day 4) and Prof. Toschi
on particles in turbulence (day 4).
