Estimation of Prandtls Mixing Length P M V Subbarao Professor Mechanical Engineering Department I I T Delhi Identification of Macro Mean Free Path....

Prandtl Mixing Length Model Thus, the component of the Reynolds stress tensor becomes The turbulent shear stress component becomes This is the Prandtl mixing length hypothesis. Prandtl deduced that the eddy viscosity can be expressed as

Fully Developed Duct Flow For x > Le, the velocity becomes purely axial and varies only with the lateral coordinates. V= W = 0 and U = U(y,z). The flow is then called fully developed flow. For fully developed flow, the Reynolds Averaged continuity and momentum equations for incompressible flow are simplified as: With

Turbulent Viscosity is a Flow Property The true Reynolds Averaged momentum equations for incompressible fully developed flow is:

Fully Developed Turbulent flow in a Circular Pipe: Modified Hagen-Poiseuille Flow The single variable is r. The equation reduces to an ODE: The solution of above Equation is: ????? Engineering Conditions: The velocity cannot be infinite at the centerline. Is this condition useful???

Estimation of Mixing Length To find an algebraic expression for the mixing length lm, several empirical correlations were suggested in literature. The mixing length lm does not have a universally valid character and changes from case to case. Therefore it is not appropriate for three-dimensional flow applications. However, it is successfully applied to boundary layer flow, fully developed duct flow and particularly to free turbulent flows. Prandtl and many others started with analysis of the two-dimensional boundary layer infected by disturbance. For wall flows, the main source of infection is wall. The wall roughness contains many cavities and troughs, which infect the flow and introduce disturbances.

Quantification of Infection by seeing the Effect Develop simple experimental test rigs. Measure wall shear stress. Define wall friction velocity using the wall shear stress by the relation Define non-dimensional boundary layer coordinates.

Approximation of velocity distribution for a fully turbulent 2D Boundary Layer

Approximation of velocity distribution for a fully turbulent 2D Boundary Layer For a fully developed turbulent flow, the constants are experimentally found to be =0.41 and C=5.0.

Measures for Mixing Length Outside the viscous sublayer marked as the logarithmic layer, the mixing length is approximated by a simple linear function. Accounting for viscous damping, the mixing length for the viscous sublayer is modeled by introducing a damping function D. As a result, the mixing length in viscous sublayer: The damping function D proposed by van Driest with the constant A+ = 26 for a boundary layer at zero-pressure gradient.

Based on experimental evaluation of a large number of velocity profiles, Kays and Moffat developed an empirical correlation for that accounts for different pressure gradients and boundary layer suction/blowing. For zero suction/blowing this correlation reduces to: With

Conclusions on Algebraic Models Few other algebraic models are: Cebeci-Smith Model Baldwin-Lomax Algebraic Model Mahendra R. Doshl And William N. Gill (2004) Gives good results for simple flows, flat plate, jets and simple shear layers Typically the algebraic models are fast and robust Needs to be calibrated for each flow type, they are not very general They are not well suited for computing flow separation Typically they need information about boundary layer properties, and are difficult to incorporate in modern flow solvers.
