TURBULENCE FREE SURFACE PHENOMENA MHD SCALAR TRANSPORT Liquid Wall Researchers are Advancing the Understanding of Interacting Multi-Scale Phenomena at the Frontiers of Fluid Dynamics Plasma-Liquid Interactions

TURBULENCE FREE SURFACE PHENOMENA MHD SCALAR TRANSPORT Fusion LW Researchers are Contributing to the Resolution of GRAND CHALLENGES in Fluid Dynamics Turbulence redistributions at free surface Turbulence-MHD interactions MHD effects on mean flow and surface stability Influence of turbulence and surface waves on interfacial transport and surface renewal Teraflop Computer Simulation Liquid Walls: many interacting phenomena

Watermark - Shear layer instability at water surface - CalTech Data The term free surface is often used for any gas/void to liquid interface, but denotes an interface between a liquid and a second medium that is unable to support an applied pressure gradient or shear stress. Formation of surface waves, a distinguishing feature (for LW - Fr > 1, supercritical flow) Interfacial flows are difficult to model - computational domain changes in time making application of BCs difficult Interfacial tension effects make equations “stiff”- differing time scales for surface wave celerity compared to liquid velocity “Open Channel Flows are essential to the world as we know it” - Munson, Young, Okiishi (from their Textbook) Free surface flow forms: films, droplets, jets, bubbles, etc. Fluid regions can coalesce, break up, and exhibit non-linear behavior CHALLENGE: FREE SURFACE FLOW

Numerically tracking moving interfaces is an ongoing challenge in CFD - Still NO IDEAL Interface Tracking Method Volume-of-Fluid (VOF): The method is based on the concept of advection of a fluid volume fraction, . It is then possible to locate surfaces, as well as determine surface slopes and surface curvatures from the VOF data. Level-Set Method: The method involves advecting a continuous scalar variable. An interface can thus be represented by a level set of the scalar variable. This is a different approach from VOF where the discontinuity represents the interface. OTHERS: Lagrangian Grid Methods Surface Height Method Marker-and-Cell (MAC) Method VOF Watermark - milk drop splash simulation using VOF- Kunugi, Kyoto Univ.

Horace Lamb, British physicist: “I am an old man now, and when I die and go to heaven there are two matters on which I hope for enlightenment. One is quantum electrodynamics, and the other is the turbulent motion of fluids. And about the former I am rather optimistic.” In Turbulent Motion the “various flow quantities exhibit random spatial and temporal variations” where “statistically distinct average values can be discerned.” - Hinze Turbulence is the rule, not the exception, in most practical flows. Turbulence is not an unfortunate phenomena. Enhancing turbulence is often the goal. Vastly different length and time scales make equations stiff - requiring large number of computational cycles. High resolution required to capture all length scales and geometrical complexities. CHALLENGE: TURBULENCE Center for Computations Science and Engineering (LBNL). LES simulation of instability in a submerged plane jet.

Turbulence / free surface interaction produces new phenomena - anisotropic near-surface turbulence Watermark - Vortex structure and free surface deformation (DNS calculation) Turbulent production dominated by the generation of wall ejections, formation of spanwise “upsurging vortices” Upsurging vortices reach free surface, form surface deformation patches, roll back in form of spanwise “downswinging vortices”, with inflow into the bulk. The ejection - inflow events are associated with the deformation of the free surface and a redistribution of near surface vorticity and velocity fields. Conceptual illustration of experimental observation of burst-interface interactions - From Rashidi, Physics of Fluids, No.9, November 1997.

CHALLENGE: MAGNETOHYDRODYNAMICS Complex non-linear interactions between fluid dynamics and electrodynamics Powerful mechanism to “influence” fluids Strong drag effects, thin active boundary layers, large (possibly reversed) velocity jets are characteristic MHD phenomena Large currents with joule dissipation and even self-sustaining dynamo effects add to computational complexity Free surface flow velocity jets produced from MHD interaction - UCLA calculation Computational Challenge Li flow in a chute in a transverse field with: b=0.1 m (half- width); B 0 =12 T (field) Ha = B 0 b Each cross-section requires MANY uniform grids, or special non-uniform meshes.

MHD interactions can change the nature of turbulence - providing a lever of CONTROL From Dresden University of Technology Experimental control of flow separation by a magnetic field: fully developed von Kármán vortex street without a magnetic field (upper) with a magnetic field (right) Applied Lorentz forces act mainly in the fluid regions near the walls where they can prevent flow separation or reduce friction drag by changing the flow structure. Because heat and mass transfer rely strongly on the flow structure, they can in turn be controlled in such fashion. Flow direction

Liquid Wall Science is important in many scientific pursuits and applications Liquid Jet and Film Stability and Dynamics: fuel injection, combustion processes, water jet cutting, ink jet printers, continuous rod/sheet/ribbon/sphere casting, flood/jet soldering, ocean waves, hull design, ocean/river hydraulic engineering, surfing, liquid walls for fusion reactors Liquid MHD / free surface interactions: melt/mold stirring and heating, liquid jet/flow control and shaping, crystal growth, astrophysical phenomena, liquid metal walls for particle accelerators and fusion reactors Liquid MHD / turbulence interactions: microstructure control in casting, boundary layer control, astrophysical dynamos and plasmas, liquid walls for particle accelerators and fusion reactors Free surface heat and mass transfer: oceanography, meteorology, global climate change, wetted-wall absorbers/chemical reactor, condensers, vertical tube evaporator, film cooling of turbine blades, impurity control in casting, liquid walls for particle accelerators and fusion reactors Watermark: Turbulent flow effect on dendrite formation in casting - LANL simulation

Isolated walls: In the near-surface jet the velocity is about 2 times higher than the mean velocity Conducting walls: In the near-surface jet the velocity is about 10 times higher than the mean velocity Electromagnetic Control of Heat Transfer Velocity profiles with favorable features could be formed by making the side-walls slightly electrically conducting.

Reflections on 19th & 20th Centuries 1850: Navier-Stokes Equation 1873: Maxwell’s Equations 1895: Reynolds Averaging ’s: -Averaging techniques, Semi-empirical approach. Heavy reliance on Prototype Testing (e.g. wind tunnels for aerodynamics). 1960’s ’s: -Supercomputers allow direct solution of N-S for simple problems. Advances in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), e.g. utilization of LES technique. 1980’s ’s: -Rapid advances to Teraflop Computers -Rapid advances in CFD and in experimental techniques -Turbulence structure “simulated” and “observed” for key problems -Better understanding of fluid physics and advanced “Prediction” tools -Paradigm Shift: - From “mostly experimental for empirical global parameters” to “larger share for CFD: simulation first followed by smaller number of carefully planned experiments aimed at understanding specific physics issues and verifying simulation.”

21st Century Frontiers Moving Beyond “Prediction” of Fluid Physics To “Control” of Fluid Dynamics With the rapid advances in teraflop computers, fluid dynamicists are increasingly able to move beyond predicting the effects of fluid behavior to actually controlling them; with enormous benefits to mankind! Examples Reduction in the Drag of Aircraft The surface of a wing would be moved slightly in response to fluctuations in the turbulence of the fluid flowing over it. The wings surface would have millions of embedded sensors and actuators that respond to fluctuations in the fluids, P, V as to control eddies and turbulence drag. DNS shows scientific feasibility and MEMS can fabricate integrated circuits with the necessary microsensors, control logic and actuators Fusion Liquid Walls Control of “free surface-turbulence-MHD” interactions to achieve fast interfacial transport and “guided motion” in complex geometries (“smart-liquids”) Nano Fluidics: Pathway to Bio-Technologies Appropriately controlled fluid molecules moving through nano/micro passages can efficiently manipulate the evolution of the embedded macro DNA molecules or affect the physiology of cells through gene expression.
