About the Book

Since the inaugural symposium at the Pennsylvania State University in 1977, the venues for the series of biennial symposia on turbulent shear flows have alternated between the USA and Europe. For the Sixth Symposium, the first to be held in France, the city of Toulouse proved a natura] choice, being a centre for the aerospace industry, meteorological research and higher education. The meeting was hosted by the Paul Sabatier University on the southern perimeter of the city, and there nearly 300 workers in the field of turbulence converged to pronounce upon, debate and absorb the current issues in turbulent shear flows and to enjoy the unfailing September sunshine. The meeting had attracted more than 200 offers of papers from which just over 100 full papers and about 20 shorter communications in open forums could be accommodated. The present volume contains 28 of the original symposium presentations selected by the editors. Each contribution has been revised by its authors - sometimes quite extensively -in the light of the oral presentation. It is our hope that the selection provides a substantial statement of permanent interest on current research in the five areas covered by this book, i.e. fundamentals and closures, scalar transport and geophysical flows, aerodynamic flows, complex flows, and numerical simulations.

Table of Contents:
I Fundamentals and Closures.- Introductory Remarks.- MIS: A Way to Derive the Dissipation Equation.- The Calculation of the Flow through a Two-dimensional Faired Diffuser.- The Distortion of Weak Turbulence by High Strain.- Experimental Study of Homogeneous Turbulence in the Presence of Rotation.- Study of Lagrangian Characteristic times Using Direct Numerical Simulation of Turbulence.- An Eigenfunction Analysis of Turbulent Thermal Convection.- II Scalar Transport and Geophysical Flows.- Introduction: A Note on Passive Scalar Transport in Turbulence.- Transport of Passive Scalars in a Turbulent Channel Flow.- Turbulent Diffusion Behind a Heated Line Source in a Nearly Homogeneous Turbulent Shear Flow.- Scalar Mixing Layer in Grid Turbulence with Transport of Passive and Reactive Species.- Turbulent Temperature Mixing Layer: Measurement and Modelling.- Turbulent Transport and Evaporation of Droplets Generated at an Air-Water Interface.- III Aerodynamic Flows.- Remarks.- Statistical Characteristics of the Velocity Incidence in a Decelerated Boundary Layer.- Manipulation of Turbulent Boundary Layers in Zero Pressure Gradient Flows: Detailed Experiments and Modelling.- Some Similarities Between Turbulent Boundary Layers Manipulated by Thin and Thick Flat Plate Manipulators.- A Study of Turbulence Modelling in Transonic Shock-Wave Boundary-Layer Interactions.- Evolution of Axisymmetric Wakes From Attached and Separated Flows.- Time-Dependent Structure in Wing-Body Junction Flows.- IV Complex Flows.- Computational Study of the Unsteady Flow due to Wakes Passing Through a Channel.- The Effect of Lateral Divergence on the Structure of a Turbulent Channel Flow and Its Heat Transfer.- Vortex Street and Turbulent Wakes behind a Circular Cylinder Placed in a Rotating Rectangular Channel.- Shear Layers Bounding Separated Regions.- Turbulent Structure of Backward-Facing Step Flow and Coherent Vortex Shedding from Reattachment in Open-Channel Flows.- Experimental Investigation of the Flow Through an Axisymmetric Constriction.- V Numerical Simulation.- Numerical Simulations of Turbulent Plane Shear Layers.- A Numerical Study of a Stably-Stratified Mixing Layer.- Turbulence Submitted to Stable Density Stratification: Large-Eddy Simulation and Statistical Theory.- Direct Simulation of a Turbulent Oscillating Boundary Layer.- Some Inlet Plane Effects on the Numerically Simulated Spatially Developing Mixing Layer.- Index of Contributors.
