Airflow simulation results depend on a good prediction of near wall turbulence. In this paper a comparative study between different near wall treatments is presented. It is applied to two test cases: (1) the first concerns the fully developed plane channel flow (i.e. the flow between two infinitely large plates). Simulation results are compared to direct numerical simulation (DNS) data of Moser et al. (1999) for $Retau$ = 590 (where $Retau$ denotes the friction Reynolds number defined by friction velocity $utau$, kinematics viscosity $v$ and the channel half-width $delta$); (2) the second case is a benchmark test for room air distribution (Nielsen, 1990). Simulation results are compared to experimental data obtained with laser-doppler anemometry. Simulations were performed with the aid of the commercial CFD code Fluent (2005). Near wall treatments available in Fluent were tested: Standard Wall Functions, Non Equilibrium Wall Function and Enhanced Wall Treatment. In each case, suitable meshes with adequate position for the first near-wall node are needed. Results of near-wall mean streamwise velocity U+ and turbulent kinetic energy k+ profiles are presented, variables with the superscript of + are those non dimensional by the wall friction velocity $utau$ and the kinematic viscosity { u}.

There exists continuous demand of improved turbulence models for the closure of Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations. Machine Learning (ML) offers effective tools for establishing advanced empirical Reynolds stress closures on the basis
of high fidelity simulation data. This paper presents a turbulence model based on the Deep Neural Network(DNN) which takes into account the non-linear relationship between the Reynolds stress anisotropy tensor and the local mean velocity gradient as well as the near-wall effect. The construction and the tuning of the DNN-turbulence model are detailed. We show that the DNN-turbulence model trained on data from direct numerical simulations yields an accurate prediction of the Reynolds stresses for plane channel flow. In particular, we propose including the local turbulence Reynolds number in the model input.
We present results of 3D hydrodynamical simulations of HD209458b including a coupled, radiatively-active cloud model ({sc EddySed}). We investigate the role of the mixing by replacing the default convective treatment used in previous works with a mor
e physically relevant mixing treatment ($K_{zz}$) based on global circulation. We find that uncertainty in the efficiency of sedimentation through the sedimentation factor $f_mathrm{sed}$ plays a larger role in shaping cloud thickness and its radiative feedback on the local gas temperatures -- e.g. hot spot shift and day-to-night side temperature gradient -- than the switch in mixing treatment. We demonstrate using our new mixing treatments that simulations with cloud scales which are a fraction of the pressure scale height improve agreement with the observed transmission spectra, the emission spectra, and the Spitzer 4.5 $mathrm{mu m}$ phase curve, although our models are still unable to reproduce the optical and UV transmission spectra. We also find that the inclusion of cloud increases the transit asymmetry in the optical between the east and west limbs, although the difference remains small ($lesssim 1%$).
The number of satellites in low-Earth orbit is increasing rapidly, and many tens of thousands of them are expected to be launched in the coming years. There is a strong concern among the astronomical community about the contamination of optical and n
ear-infrared observations by satellite trails. We analyze the impact analysis of such constellations on optical and near-infrared astronomical observations in a rigorous and quantitative way, using updated constellation information, and considering imagers and spectrographs and their very different characteristics. We introduce an analytical method that allows us to rapidly and accurately evaluate the effect of a very large number of satellites, accounting for their magnitudes and the effect of trailing of the satellite image during the exposure. We use this to evaluate the impact on a series of representative instruments, including imagers (traditional narrow field instruments, wide-field survey cameras, and astro-photographic cameras) and spectrographs (long-slit and fibre-fed), taking into account their limiting magnitude. As already known (Walker et al. 2020), the effect of satellite trails is more damaging for high-altitude satellites, on wide-field instruments, or essentially during the first and last hours of the night. Thanks to their brighter limiting magnitudes, low- and mid-resolution spectrographs will be less affected, but the contamination will be at about the same level as that of the science signal, introducing additional challenges. High-resolution spectrographs will essentially be immune. We propose a series of mitigating measures, including one that uses the described simulation method to optimize the scheduling of the observations. We conclude that no single mitigation measure will solve the problem of satellite trails for all instruments and all science cases.
The effect of asymmetric functionally graded material on the edge resonance and the Fano resonance in semi-infinite FGM plates are reported in this work. The edge resonance is weakened by the material perturbation and the complete mode conversion is
illustrated with incident $S_0$ mode. The Fano resonance occurs on the reflected $A_0$ mode as a result of interference between the resonance and direct scattering with incident $A_0$ mode. A hybrid analytical model based on the collocation discretization and the modal decomposition of the elastic field is developed to analyze the scattering properties of the semi-infinite plates. The Fano line-shape is discussed in detail. The results show that the Fano line shape is sensitive to the volume fraction, which is beneficial for the quantitative guided wave application.
We report here on experiments and simulations examining the effect of changing wall friction on the gravity-driven flow of spherical particles in a vertical hopper. In 2D experiments and simulations, we observe that the exponent of the expected power
-law scaling of mass flow rate with opening size (known as Beverloos law) decreases as the coefficient of friction between particles and wall increases, whereas Beverloo scaling works as expected in 3D. In our 2D experiments, we find that wall friction plays the biggest role in a region near the outlet comparable in height to the largest opening size. However, wall friction is not the only factor determining a constant rate of flow, as we observe a near-constant mass outflow rate in the 2D simulations even when wall friction is set to zero. We show in our simulations that an increase in wall friction leaves packing fractions relatively unchanged, while average particle velocities become independent of opening size as the coefficient of friction increases. We track the spatial pattern of time-averaged particle velocities and accelerations inside the hopper. We observe that the hemisphere-like region above the opening where particles begin to accelerate is largely independent of opening size at finite wall friction. However, the magnitude of particle accelerations decreases significantly as wall friction increases, which in turn results in mean sphere velocities that no longer scale with opening size, consistent with our observations of mass flow rate scaling. The case of zero wall friction is anomalous, in that most of the acceleration takes place near the outlet.
