PI: Zaki, TamerProposal Number: 1605404This is a GOALI project that is focused on the computational investigation of the fundamental interactions between free turbulence and the turbulent boundary layer. The proposal will employ high fidelity direct numerical simulations and conditional sampling techniques. The industrial collaborator is at GE, and this collaboration can lead to a project that will be concerned with flow conditions that are relevant to practical applications. The proposed work aims to fill a gap in current understanding and practice of designing engines with low emission goals. Currently, the design process is based on correlations that are extracted from studies of flows without accounting for background disturbances. Often efficiency is sacrificed in favor of reliability and safety. However, background disturbances can cause distortions that are not predictable. This GOALI proposal address this gap by providing the missing fundamental research that will enable more efficient and reliable designs and, in turn, better engine performance and cleaner operation. There is also a strong outreach plan that will leverage existing activities at Johns Hopkins, including activities for K-12 students. The graduate student involved in this project will benefit from the mentoring of the industrial co-PI and will spend time at GE.

主要研究者：Zaki，Tamer提案编号：1605404这是一个GOALI项目，重点是自由湍流和湍流边界层之间基本相互作用的计算研究。该提案将采用高保真直接数值模拟和条件采样技术。工业合作者是在通用电气公司，这种合作可以导致一个项目，将关注与实际应用相关的流动条件。拟议的工作旨在填补目前的理解和实践中的差距，设计发动机的低排放目标。目前，设计过程是基于从流动研究中提取的相关性，而不考虑背景干扰。通常为了可靠性和安全性而牺牲效率。然而，背景干扰可能导致不可预测的失真。 GOALI的建议通过提供缺失的基础研究来解决这一差距，这些基础研究将使设计更加高效和可靠，从而提高发动机性能和清洁运行。还有一个强大的推广计划，将利用现有的活动在约翰霍普金斯，包括活动的K-12学生。参与该项目的研究生将受益于工业合作PI的指导，并将在GE工作。
