| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using direct numerical simulation(DNS) of turbulence in a periodic box with a maximum of 4096^3 grid points and Taylor micro-scale Reynolds numbers Rλ up to 1131, it is shown that there is a transition in the forms of the significant vortical structures, from isolated vortices (when Rλ is less than 100) to complex thin-shear layers (when Rλ exceeds about 1000). Within the significant layers, strong vortices are generated with micro-scale thickness 10η (η is the Kolmogorov micro scale). The interfaces of the layers act partly as a barrier to the fluctuations outside the layer.
We also performed the DNS of turbulent boundary layers (TBL) along a flat plate to study the properties of turbulent/non-turbulent (T/NT) interface of the TBL. Analysis of the conditional statistics near the interface shows that conditional cross correlations of the streamwise or the wall-normal velocity change sharply across the interface. This is consistent with the blocking mechanism of the interface.
