The aim of this paper is to substantiate the importance of non-normality of shear flow linear operators and its consequence -- the non-modal dynamics of the perturbations -- in the formation of acoustic wave output of time-developing free shear/mixing layers. Initially, the linear transient dynamics of spatial Fourier harmonics is considered in a 3D homentropic parallel unbounded inviscid constant shear flow which can model the central/body part of the shear layer. The non-modal approach allows to capture the only linear mechanism of the acoustic wave generation -- textit{the linear vortex-wave mode coupling induced by the shear flow non-normality}. We describe the specific/key features of the generation process that should leave traces on the further dynamics of the generated waves. Thereafter, the results of direct numerical simulations of compressible turbulent time-developing mixing layers for a moderate convective Mach number (specifically, $M_c=0.7$) and simulation boxes $(L_x,L_y,L_z)$ with fixed streamwise and shearwise lengths ($L_x=100, L_y=200$) and different streamwise-spanwise aspect ratios ($L_x/L_z=0.5,1,2$) are presented. The simulations identify the origin of the acoustic wave output: the dominance of a emph{linear generation process of acoustic waves in the shear layer core region, induced by the flow non-normality}, observable in the near field of acoustic waves emitted by the flow.

This paper presents a method for calculating the wall shear rate in pipe turbulent flow. It collapses adequately the data measured in laminar flow and turbulent flow into a single flow curve and gives the basis for the design of turbulent flow viscom eters. Key words: non-Newtonian, wall shear rate, turbulent, rheometer
This fluid dynamics video submitted to the Gallery of Fluid motion shows a turbulent boundary layer developing under a 5 metre-long flat plate towed through water. A stationary imaging system provides a unique view of the developing boundary layer as it would form over the hull of a ship or fuselage of an aircraft. The towed plate permits visualisation of the zero-pressure-gradient turbulent boundary layer as it develops from the trip to a high Reynolds number state ($Re_tau approx 3000$). An evolving large-scale coherent structure will appear almost stationary in this frame of reference. The visualisations provide an unique view of the evolution of fundamental processes in the boundary layer (such as interfacial bulging, entrainment, vortical motions, etc.). In the more traditional laboratory frame of reference, in which fluid passes over a stationary body, it is difficult to observe the full evolution and lifetime of turbulent coherent structures. An equivalent experiment in a wind/water-tunnel would require a camera and laser that moves with the flow, effectively `chasing eddies as they advect downstream.
In a shear flow particles migrate to their equilibrium positions in the microchannel. Here we demonstrate theoretically that if particles are inertial, this equilibrium can become unstable due to the Saffman lift force. We derive an expression for th e critical Stokes number that determines the onset of instable equilibrium. We also present results of lattice Boltzmann simulations for spherical particles and prolate spheroids to validate the analysis. Our work provides a simple explanation of several unusual phenomena observed in earlier experiments and computer simulations, but never interpreted before in terms of the unstable equilibrium.
The spectral model of Perry, Henbest & Chong (1986) predicts that the integral length-scale varies very slowly with distance to the wall in the intermediate layer. The only way for the integral length scales variation to be more realistic while keepi ng with the Townsend-Perry attached eddy spectrum is to add a new wavenumber range to the model at wavenumbers smaller than that spectrum. This necessary addition can also account for the high Reynolds number outer peak of the turbulent kinetic energy in the intermediate layer. An analytic expression is obtained for this outer peak in agreement with extremely high Reynolds number data by Hultmark, Vallikivi, Bailey & Smits (2012, 2013). The finding of Dallas, Vassilicos & Hewitt (2009) that it is the eddy turnover time and not the mean flow gradient which scales with distance to the wall and skin friction velocity in the intermediate layer implies, when combined with Townsends (1976) production-dissipation balance, that the mean flow gradient has an outer peak at the same location as the turbulent kinetic energy. This is seen in the data of Hultmark, Vallikivi, Bailey & Smits (2012, 2013). The same approach also predicts that the mean flow gradient has a logarithmic decay at distances to the wall larger than the position of the outer peak, a qualitative prediction which the aforementioned data also support.
We present an analytical model for the time-developing turbulent boundary layer (TD-TBL) over a flat plate. The model provides explicit formulae for the temporal behavior of the wall-shear stress and both the temporal and spatial distributions of the mean streamwise velocity, the turbulence kinetic energy and Reynolds shear stress. The resulting profiles are in good agreement with the DNS results of spatially-developing turbulent boundary layers at momentum thickness Reynolds number equal to 1430 and 2900. Our analytical model is, to the best of our knowledge, the first of its kind for TD-TBL.
