Abstract
ABSTRACTDirect numerical simulations of temporally evolving supersonic turbulent channel flow of thermally perfect gas are conducted at Mach number 3.0 and Reynolds number 4800, combined with constant dimensional wall temperatures from 149.075 to 1788.90 K to study the influence of dimensional wall temperature on the characteristics of Reynolds stress budgets. It is found that, as the dimensional wall temperature increases, the production, diffusion, pressure–velocity gradient correlation and dissipation terms increase, whereas the compressibility-related term decreases. This is mainly due to variations in mean flow properties. The mechanism of inter-component transfer (ICT) is insensitive to the dimensional wall temperature. The ICT relating to the pressure–velocity gradient correlation term can be divided into inner and outer regions, and the critical position separating these regions is at the semi-local scaling of approximately 16 irrespective of the different dimensional wall temperature.
