Abstract

Steady turbulent viscous incompressible fluid flow in a plane channel is calculated for the case of uniform blowing and suction through opposite walls. There are no experimental data for flows of this type. The flows were calculated by two methods: a direct numerical simulation method and using a three-parameter turbulence model. Direct numerical simulation was carried out using the same (apart from the boundary conditions) algorithm for numerical solution of the Navier-Stokes equations as that used earlier for calculating flows in pipes and channels with impermeable walls. In the second group of calculations the version of the model published in 1978 was used. The results obtained by the two methods are in good agreement. The difference is within the spread of the experimental data used for determining the parameters of the model. The agreement obtained makes it possible to assert that the turbulence direct numerical simulation algorithm developed can be used for the analysis of flows with quite different boundary conditions, including cases where there are no corresponding experimental data.
