A New k-ω Model for Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulent Duct Flow

Abstract:

A solver for MHD turbulent flow and a new RANS model based on k-ω model in the open source toolbox OpenFOAM are developed to investigate magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulent flow. Two electro-magnetic terms in the k and ω transport equations are added to include magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) effects. The modified k-ω is validated by simulating MHD turbulent duct flow. Time-averaged velocity and turbulent kinetic energy profiles simulated by standard k-ω and the modified k-ω in the fully developed section are both reported. The results compare fairly with those obtained from DNS data. A difference of 8.4% in is found between the modified k-ω and DNS, but the RANS model only uses 0.4% of the DNS computation time.
