Spatial direct numerical simulation of boundary-layer transition mechanisms: Validation of PSE theory

From MaRDI portal
Publication:1308940





A study of instabilities in incompressible boundary-layer flow on a flat plate is conducted by spatial direct numerical simulation (DNS) of the Navier-Stokes equations. Here, the DNS results are used to evaluate critically the results obtained using parabolized stability equations (PSE) theory and to study mechanisms associated with breakdown from laminar to turbulent flow. Three test cases are considered: two- dimensional Tollmien-Schlichting wave propagation, subharmonic instability breakdown, and oblique-wave breakdown.
