Spectral analysis of turbulence energy transport in a channel mounted with circular-arc ribs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Spectral analysis of the transport process of turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) in a channel roughened with spanwise-aligned circular-arc ribs is conducted based on direct numerical simulations (DNS). Test cases of varying pitch-to-height ratios ( $P/H=3.0$ , 5.0 and 7.5) and bulk Reynolds numbers ( ${\textit{Re}}_b=5600$ and 14 600) are compared. It is observed that the characteristic spanwise wavelength of the energy-containing eddies in the internal shear layer (ISL) increases as the value of $P/H$ increases, but decreases as the Reynolds number increases. In the ISL, the energy transport processes are dominated by turbulent production as the lead source term, but by turbulent diffusion and dissipation as the lead sink terms. It is found that regions with high production and dissipation rates of TKE in the ISL are associated with moderate and small wavelengths, respectively. The TKE production for sustaining moderate- and large-scale motions enhances gradually with an increasing value of $P/H$ , while that for sustaining small-scale motions augments as the Reynolds number increases. It is interesting to observe that the interscale-transport term plays a critical role in draining TKE at moderate wavelengths as a sink and carries the drained TKE to small-scale eddies as a source. It is discovered that a higher pitch-to-height ratio leads to shortening of the characteristic spanwise wavelength of the dissipation process but prolongation of those of the production, interscale-transport and turbulent-diffusion processes in the ISL. By contrast, a higher Reynolds number results in reductions in the characteristic spanwise wavelengths of all spectral transport terms.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
