| Research Abstract |
To develop a closure model of diffusion transport in the Reynolds stress andheat flux equations, various types of moments of velocity and temerature fluctuations of the first to the fourth order have been measured and analyzed. First,and orthogonal series expansion for the three-dimensional joint probability density function (pdf) is developed using the cumulants and Hermite polynomials. This pdf is found to provide satisfactory predictions for the statistical characteristics, including triple products, of turbulent momentum and heat transfer. Next, the conditional sampling and averaging technique is employed to investigate the statistical characteristics of coherent turbulent transfer processes of momentum and heat. Conditional pdfs are developed for various moments of velocityand temperature up to the third order. It is showm that the present pdfs can represent the detailed role of coherent motions in the dynamics of wall turbulentshear flows and in the relevant process of heat transport by turbulence. In particular, the importance of coherent motions in the turbulent diffusion process of Reynolds stress components and heat fluxes is demonstrated for the first time by the present theory.
