Modelling friction and heat transfer in turbulent forced convection over porous lattices
We perform direct numerical simulations (DNS) to investigate how cubic-lattice porous substrates influence momentum and heat transfer in turbulent channel flows. The simulations span friction Reynolds numbers from 260 to 1500, Prandtl numbers of 0.5, 1, and 2, and substrate porosities of 50%, 71%, and 87%. We show that...
