LARGE EDDY SIMULATION OF COMPRESSIBLE TURBULENT CHANNEL FLOW WITH ACTIVE SPANWISE WALL FLUCTUATIONS

The large eddy simulation (LES) of compressible turbulent channel flow controlled by active spanwise wall fluctuations (ASWF) is carried out in this paper. Heat transport and its relation with the momentum transport are paid with great attentions. In all the flow cases of present study, the changes of temperature fluctuation, heat transport and temperature streaks are in consistence with streamwise velocity fluctuation, momentum transport and velocity streaks respectively. This demonstrates the existence of same mechanism in heat transport and momentum transport in turbulent boundary layer, which gives the theoretical support for using the drag reduction technology to control wall heat flux.
