  9. Subject We consider turbulence mixing by examining the statistics of passive vectors advected in an unstable periodic flow (UPF) for a Couette system. We focus our attention on the relation between the coherent structures (streamwise vortices, low-speed streaks, ejection regions, sweep regions) and the mixing properties of turbulence.

  10. Orientation of Passive Vectors Image Laminar flow Lyapunov exponent = 0 Aligned slowly Turbulent flow Aligned quickly Lyapunov exponent > 0

  11. Alignment of Directions A unit sphere represents the direction of passive vectors z y x Initially, we distribute many passive vectors at a same point with random orientations.

  12. Alignment of passive vectors planar linear

  13. Alignment of passive vectors 20 38 56 We distribute 5320 sets of passive vectors uniformly in space at an initial instant. Each set is composed of 1000 passive vectors with random orientations.

  16. Direction Field of Passive Vectors Passive vectors which start at a same position with random orientations will be aligned in a few periods of UPF. Then, can we expect that the direction field of passive vectors in UPF is unique irrespective of the initial condition ?

  17. Construction of Direction Field

  18. Direction distribution of passive vectors 2h 20 38 56 Divide the computational box into many cubes of side 0.1h. Track the motion of many（5320）passive vectors for a long time, and Store the position and direction of each vector fallen in the individual cubes every time phase of the UPF. Calculate the direction distribution of vectors in each cube.

  31. Summary(1/2) Passive vectors which start at a same position with different orientations in UPF will be aligned in a few time periods. The direction field of passive vectors can be defined uniquely in UPF. It is found that in most of small cubes the passive vectors align either in a single direction (linear type) or on a plane (planar type).

  32. Summary(2/2) The linear type is observed in streamwise vortices and low-speed streaks (or the ejection region near the wall), the planar type in the periphery of vortices and in the sweep region near the wall. The dispersion of orientation of passive vectors may be used to quantify turbulent mixing.
