Abstract [en]
Acquiring velocity statistics using PC-MRIhas been a standard procedure for some time. Mean velocities are often accurately measured, but velocity fluctuation comparisons are less precise. The standard turbulent protocol used, relies on an assumption of the velocity distribution that does not hold for all flows, for instance close to solid walls. In this work we investigate the possibilities to reverse the process, reproduce the PC-MRI signal from known velocity distributions using high-fidelity simulations of two canonical flows, open-channel and pipe flow. Results show that a naive approach, using converged velocity distributions leads to discrepancies, but close agreement to experimentally estimated velocity fluctuations is reached when a multiple realisation method is used. This work showcases the potential of simulating MR signals from DNS data in order to calibrate and improve flow models of complex flow environments.
