relationship b/w pressure and velocity layer sholar articles

Answer 1

The objective of this investigation is to study the velocity-field sources for the fluctuating wall pressure, determine their locations in the boundary layer, and investigate their physics. The velocity-field sources and partial wall pressures were computed from a database generated by a direct numerical simulation of a low Reynolds number, fully developed, turbulent channel flow. Results show that the mean-shear (MS) and turbulence-turbulence (TT) partial pressures (πMSπMS and πTT,πTT, respectively) are the same order of magnitude. The buffer region dominates most of the wave number range; the viscous shear layer is significant at the highest wavenumbers; the buffer and logarithmic regions are important at low wavenumbers. Over most of the wavenumber range, the contribution from the buffer region is the dominant TT component; in the low-wavenumber range, the viscousshear layer, buffer region, and logarithmic region are significant; in the medium and high wavenumbers the viscous shear layer and buffer region dominate. The most important TT partial pressures are πTT23,π23TT, πTT13π13TT and πTT12π12TTfrom the buffer region. It is conjectured that πTT23π23TT and πTT13π13TTmay be generated by quasi-streamwise vortices. πTT12π12TT may be due to near-wall shear layers and spanwise vortices. πTT23,π23TT, πTT22π22TT and πTT33π33TT from the viscous shear layer are the dominant high-wavenumber partial pressures.
