The mean velocity profile is seen to depart from the low Mach number profile, corresponding to an expected dependence of the mean density and temperature profiles on Mach number. The turbulence velocity statistics are found to be reasonably independent of Mach number. Pressure fluctuation statistics are also found to scale with the wall shear stress independently of Mach number, although normalized density and temperature fluctuations increase substantially with Mach number. The density and temperature fluctuations, although small in magnitude, are observed not to be isobarically related.","The current simulations have validated the algorithm in the incompressible limit and have demonstrated the ability of the method to simulate high subsonic Mach number flows. The success of these simulations suggests the utility of this method for fundamental research into many turbulent compressible flow problems.","Made available in DSpace on 2011-05-07T12:39:58Z (GMT).
