Investigation of internal wave wakes generated by a submerged body in a stratified flow

J Chai, Z Wang, Z Yang, Z Wang - Ocean Engineering, 2022 - Elsevier
Internal waves in the ocean with stratified structure are essential: natural internal waves for
the untangling of physical and environmental processes in oceanography and internal …

Wakes and free surface signatures of a generic submarine in the homogeneous and linearly stratified fluid

F Huang, Q Meng, L Cao, D Wan - Ocean Engineering, 2022 - Elsevier
In this paper, a generic submarine Joubert BB2 model travels both in the homogenous and
linearly stratified fluid are simulated and investigated. The stable stratification of background …

Large-eddy simulations of a notional submarine in towed and self-propelled configurations

A Posa, E Balaras - Computers & Fluids, 2018 - Elsevier
The present study reports results of Large Eddy Simulations (LES) in towed and self-
propelled conditions for the DARPA SUBOFF (DSub), a notional submarine geometry, at a …

Decay of turbulent wakes behind a disk in homogeneous and stratified fluids

K Chongsiripinyo, S Sarkar - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2020 - cambridge.org
Body-inclusive large-eddy simulations of disk wakes are performed for a homogeneous fluid
and for different levels of stratification. The Reynolds number is 5× 104 and the Froude …

[HTML][HTML] Grid-point and time-step requirements for large-eddy simulation and Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes of stratified wakes

JQJL Li, XIA Yang, RF Kunz - Physics of Fluids, 2022 - pubs.aip.org
Estimates of grid-point and time-step requirements exist for many canonical flows but not for
stratified wakes. The purpose of this work is to fill in this gap. We apply the basic meshing …

Internal waves generated by a stratified wake: experiment and theory

P Meunier, S Le Dizès, L Redekopp… - Journal of Fluid …, 2018 - cambridge.org
This paper presents experimental and theoretical results on the internal waves emitted by a
bluff body moving horizontally in a linearly stratified fluid. Three different bluff bodies (a …

Analysis of coherence in turbulent stratified wakes using spectral proper orthogonal decomposition

S Nidhan, OT Schmidt, S Sarkar - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2022 - cambridge.org
We use spectral proper orthogonal decomposition (SPOD) to extract and analyse coherent
structures in the turbulent wake of a disk at Reynolds number. Overall, we find that the …

Characteristics of the surface signatures induced by a sphere in a linearly stratified flow

J Sun, Z Wang, J Chai, Z Wang, Z Yang - Ocean Engineering, 2023 - Elsevier
Internal waves generated by a moving body submerged in a stratified fluid typically yield
modest surface signatures. Large-eddy simulation (LES) is employed to capture the surface …
