Abstract

Turbulent parts localized in flow direction may arise in a pipe with transitional regime of the stable laminar Poiseuille flow. A key condition for occurrence of such structures is a pipe with rather long length relative to its diameter. Our paper presents numerical modelling of the hot air jet flowing from the long pipe into the cold open volume at Re=2426. The modelling was performed in OpenFOAM software on the basis of the large eddy simulation (LES) method. The WALE (Wall-adapting local eddy-viscosity) model was used for closure of Navier-Stokes equations on subgrid scales. We demonstrated that local turbulent structures have a weak effect on the hot jet at flowing into the cold open volume.
