Research activity field

〇Wall bounded turbulent shear flow: Universal mean velocity profiles and turbulent statistics are studied in High Reynolds number flow experimentally and in Direct numerical simulations. Especially the invariant probability density function of velocity fluctuations is revealed[11,16,20]. The most highest Re number in turbulent boundary layer[1], channel [3], and pipe flow [6,23] was achieved.
〇Small scale universality in turbulence: How the local isotropic hypothesis in the inertial range [2] is studied under the effect of shear in velocity fluctuation[21], pressure fluctuations[4]. The intermittency effect of energy spectrum [17], Reynolds shear stress fluctuation [34] are quantified. Also the linear response theory is applied to investigate the local equilibrium state of inertial range[26,55,59].
〇Thermal convection in mercury: The thermal convection of mercury in a confined cell is studied experimentally. The Ultrasonic velocity profile monitor is applied for the first time to measure the velocity at 128 points simultaneously. The flow pattern (called Mean wind) is studied depending on the aspect ratio of cylindrical cell [5,8,58]. Also the velocity and temperature fluctuation were measured simultaneously[40].
〇Experimental technique to measure statistical quantity in turbulence: Pressure fluctuations in high Re number turbulent boundary layer was measured for the first time [1] and the pressure strain term was measured in the mixing layer[26]. Shear stress fluctuations were measured by the electrical chemical method[56,57,60] and the mean shear stress was measured by oil film and towing tank experiment[51]. The friction factor coefficient in heigh Re number was clarified. Stereo PIV, Tomo-PIV, and PTV methods were applied for the measurement of complex flow field [9,10,19,45] and the ultra sonic velocity profile monitor was applied to the wake of cylinder[29]. Laser doppler velocity profile meter with the correction of space resolution was applied to measure the high Re number pipe flow [6,23,65].
〇Free-surface instability over liquid jet: Free surface instability over the liquid metal jet was studied experimentally [39,42]. The high frequency of optical measurement technique was developed, and the wave shape was reconstructed [7,13].
〇Quantum turbulence: The flow of super fluid helium was studied using PIV measurement. The Lagrange property of small particle motions, such as velocity and acceleration [41,44] depends on particle sizes[63], and the curvature of Lagrange trajectories can separate the motions carried by normal and super fluid flow[64]. The Helium exima was uses as a tracer particles and they were excited by neutron [51]. It is a possibility to visualize the quantum vortex motion using Helium exima [61].
