Flow in turbulent boundary layers with coriolis force

코리올리힘 이 作용하는 亂流境界層內 의 流動 에 관한 硏究

The effect of the Coriolis force on the 2-D turbulent boundary layer which is developed in the side wall of the rotating rectangular flow channel was investigated. In this study, we measured mean velocities, turbulent velocity components(axial as well as lateral ones) and Reynolds stresses of the turbulent boundary layer. For high Reynolds number flows, the turbulent boundary layer without pressure gradient is hardly affected by the rotation. For low Reynolds number flows, however, the shearing stress at suction side decreases. Consequently, the velocity near the wall become slower so that the thickness of the viscous sublayer expands. On the other hand, the velocity near the wall at pressure side turns out increased.

본 연구에서는 단순유로인 단면이 장방형인 각통을 그것에 수직한 축둘레에 회전시켜서 유로의 압력측 및 부압측에서의 속도 및 변동속도성분의 거동을 실험적으 로 조사함으로서 코리올리힘이 난류경계층 내의 유동에 미치는 영향을 구명하였다.
