Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Cryogenic liquid helium is in a two-fluid state in which inviscid superfluid and viscous normal-fluid are mixed. Experiments have shown three states: (1) both fluids are laminar; (2) superfluid is turbulent (quantum turbulence), but normal-fluids is laminar; (3) both fluids are turbulent. However, the details remain unclear. Thus, we investigate those characteristics by developing and implementing a two-fluid coupled simulation via mutual friction. Numerical analysis was performed assuming that superfluid is quantized vortices and normal-fluid is a viscous continuum (viscous fluid). It was found that we revealed phenomena such as flattening of normal fluid due to mutual friction by quantum turbulence, reduction of entrance length, anisotropic velocity fluctuation of laminar normal-fluid, and enhancement of turbulent intensity in two-fluid turbulence.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
極低温の液体ヘリウムは、MRI、核融合炉、リニアモーターカー、加速器におけるといった超電導磁石の冷却に利用されており、その特性解明はそのような冷却機器の性能向上に役立つ。また、2流体混合状態の物理現象の理解は、微粒子、噴霧、気泡といった分散相を含む2相流の理解にも資する。
