Statistics and TKE Budgets of Beta = 0, 1, 39 Turbulent Boundary Layer DNS

<p>The statistical properties are presented for the direct numerical simulation of a self-similar adverse pressure gradient (APG) turbulent boundary layer (TBL) at the verge of separation. The APG TBL has a momentum thickness-based Reynolds number range from 570 to 13, 800, with a self-similar region from 10, 000 to 12, 300. Within this domain the average non-dimensional pressure gradient parameter beta = 39. These properties are compared to those of a beta = 0 and 1 case. </p><p><br></p><p>The statistical properties and KE budgets of these three flows in the domain of interest are provided as ASCII files.</p><p><br></p><div><b>Properties:</b></div><div>Kinematic Viscosity = 0.000285714</div><div>Density = 1</div><div><b><br></b></div><div><b>DATAFILES:</b></div><div><br></div><div><u>ASCII files:</u></div><div>ZPG_Beta0.dat </div><div>mildAPG_Beta1.dat </div><div>strongAPG_Beta39.dat<br></div><div>ZPG_Beta0_KEbudgets.dat<br></div><div>mildAPG_Beta1_KEbudgets.dat<br></div><div>strongAPG_Beta39_KEbudgets.dat<br></div><p><br></p><p><u>Plots:</u></p><p>uu_reynoldsstress.pdf</p><p>uv_reynoldsstress.pdf</p><p>vv_reynoldsstress.pdf</p><p>ww_reynoldsstress.pdf</p><p>KE_budgets_Beta39_figshare.pdf<br></p><p><b><br></b></p><p><b>References:</b></p><p>Kitsios, V., Sekimoto, A., Atkinson, C., Sillero, J.
