Experimental determination of the sub-grid scale scalar flux in a non-reacting jet-flow

摘要

This work presents an experimental approach to the direct determination of the sub-grid scale scalar flux used in Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Two non-reacting jet-flow configurations were examined, one with the jet temperature similar to the ambient air temperature and one preheated jet. Hence data were obtained for varying viscosities. Each case was investigated for two different, high Reynolds numbers of 17,471 and 31,714. For the measurements of mixture fraction and flow velocity field a finest resolution of almost 100 mu m was achieved. Thus both the sub-grid scale scalar flux as well as the spatially filtered quantities can be obtained from the same data set. The data were acquired by the simultaneous application of planar laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) and particle image velocimetry (PIV).
