Abstract

In this paper we investigate the distortion of an unsteady flow through a two-dimensional sudden area expansion using LargeEddy Simulations. We perform a series of numerical experiments at various Mach numbers (Mb = (0.1, 0.5)) based on the inlet volume flow rate and fixed O(1) contraction ratio. At Mb = 0.1, we find that the transverse components of the auto-correlation of the two-point time-delayed velocity correlation tensor de-correlates slower in the downstream expansion compared to the channel section. We discuss this result in the context of classical and rapid-distortion theory.
