Recent developments in neural networks have shown the potential of estimating drag on irregular rough surfaces. Nevertheless, the difficulty of obtaining a large high-fidelity dataset to train neural networks is deterring their use in practical applications. In this study, we propose a transfer learning framework to model the drag on irregular rough surfaces even with a limited amount of direct numerical simulations. We show that transfer learning of empirical correlations, reported in the literature, can significantly improve the generalization ability of neural networks for drag prediction. The developed framework can be applied to applications where acquiring a large dataset is difficult, but empirical correlations have been reported.

Wall-roughness induces extra drag in wall-bounded turbulent flows. Mapping any given roughness geometry to its fluid dynamic behaviour has been hampered by the lack of accurate and direct measurements of skin-friction drag. Here the Taylor-Couette (T
C) system provides an opportunity as it is a closed system and allows to directly and reliably measure the skin-friction. However, the wall-curvature potentially complicates the connection between the wall friction and the wall roughness characteristics. Here we investigate the effects of a hydrodynamically fully rough surface on highly turbulent, inner cylinder rotating, TC flow. We find that the effects of a hydrodynamically fully rough surface on TC turbulence, where the roughness height k is three orders of magnitude smaller than the Obukhov curvature length Lc (which characterizes the effects of curvature on the turbulent flow, see Berghout et al. arXiv: 2003.03294, 2020), are similar to those effects of a fully rough surface on a flat plate turbulent boundary layer (BL). Hence, the value of the equivalent sand grain height ks, that characterizes the drag properties of a rough surface, is similar to those found for comparable sandpaper surfaces in a flat plate BL. Next, we obtain the dependence of the torque (skin-friction drag) on the Reynolds number for given wall roughness, characterized by ks, and find agreement with the experimental results within 5 percent. Our findings demonstrate that global torque measurements in the TC facility are well suited to reliably deduce wall drag properties for any rough surface.
The surface texture of materials plays a critical role in wettability, turbulence and transport phenomena. In order to design surfaces for these applications, it is desirable to characterise non-smooth and porous materials by their ability to exchang
e mass and momentum with flowing fluids. While the underlying physics of the tangential (slip) velocity at a fluid-solid interface is well understood, the importance and treatment of normal (transpiration) velocity and normal stress is unclear. We show that, when slip velocity varies at an interface above the texture, a non-zero transpiration velocity arises from mass conservation. The ability of a given surface texture to accommodate for a normal velocity of this kind is quantified by a transpiration length. We further demonstrate that normal momentum transfer gives rise to a pressure jump. For a porous material, the pressure jump can be characterised by so called resistance coefficients. By solving five Stokes problems, the introduced measures of slip, transpiration and resistance can be determined for any anisotropic non-smooth surface consisting of regularly repeating geometric patterns. The proposed conditions are a subset of effective boundary conditions derived from formal multi-scale expansion. We validate and demonstrate the physical significance of the effective conditions on two canonical problems -- a lid-driven cavity and a turbulent channel flow, both with non-smooth bottom surfaces.
We study the hydrodynamic coupling between particles and solid, rough boundaries characterized by random surface textures. Using the Lorentz reciprocal theorem, we derive analytical expressions for the grand mobility tensor of a spherical particle an
d find that roughness-induced velocities vary nonmonotonically with the characteristic wavelength of the surface. In contrast to sedimentation near a planar wall, our theory predicts continuous particle translation transverse and perpendicular to the applied force. Most prominently, this motion manifests itself in a variance of particle displacements that grows quadratically in time along the direction of the force. This increase is rationalized by surface roughness generating particle sedimentation closer to or farther from the surface, which entails a significant variability of settling velocities.
Direct Numerical Simulations are used to solve turbulent flow and heat transfer over a variety of rough walls in a channel. The wall geometries are exactly resolved in the simulations. The aim is to understand the effect of roughness morphology and i
ts scaling on the augmentation of heat transfer relative to that of skin friction. A number of realistic rough surface maps obtained from the scanning of gas turbine blades and internal combustion engines as well as several artificially generated rough surfaces are examined. In the first part of the paper, effects of statistical surface properties, namely surface slope and roughness density, at constant roughness height are systematically investigated, and it is shown that Reynolds analogy factor (two times Stanton number divided by skin friction coefficient) varies meaningfully but moderately with the surface parameters except for the case with extremely low slope or density where the Reynolds analogy factor grows significantly and tends to that of a smooth wall. In the second part of the paper, the roughness height is varied (independently in both inner and outer units) while the geometrical similarity is maintained. Considering all the simulated cases, it is concluded that Reynolds analogy factor correlates fairly well with the equivalent sand roughness scaled in inner units and asymptotically tends to a plateau.
The effect of bridge splitting is considered in the case of capillary adhesion: for a fixed total volume of liquid, does having more capillary bridges increase the total adhesion force? Previous studies have shown that the capillary-induced adhesion
force between two planar surfaces is only substantially enhanced by bridge splitting in specific circumstances. Here this previous result is reconsidered, and it is shown that bridge splitting may significantly increase the adhesion forces when one of the surfaces is rough. The resistance to shear is also examined, and it is shown that bridge splitting on a rough surface can lead to a steady capillary-induced shear force that scales linearly with translation velocity, even in the absence of contact-line pinning.
