Abstract: This database contains numerical results of well-resolved large-eddy simulations of azimuthally inhomogeneous thermal boundary conditions in a fully developed forced convection pipe flow. Please refer to the README for further information.
TechnicalRemarks: # Thermal Statistics of Turbulent Forced Convection Pipe Flow for Azimuthally Inhomogeneous Thermal Boundary Conditions
This database features thermal statistics for fluids of Prandtl numbers Pr=0.71, 0.025 and bulk Reynolds numbers of Re=5300, 11700, 19000, 37700 in a fully-developed forced convection pipe flow.
The wall heat flux is prescribed to be adiabatic on one half of the pipe and constant ("halfconst") or sinusoidal ("halfsin") on the other half.
The detailed description of the numerical setup and discussion of the statistics contained in this database are given in the accompanying publication:
Straub, Forooghi, Marocco, Wetzel, Frohnapfel. "Azimuthally inhomogeneous thermal boundary conditions in turbulent forced convection pipe flow for low to medium Prandtl numbers". International Journal of Heat and Fluid Flow. 2019
