Popis: | A variation of strong turbulence anisotropy (STA) with cylinder heating, and, as a result, STA suppression, are here first elucidated in the air heated wake in the transitional state at Reynolds number Re = 300 and Richardson number Ri = 0.3. Simultaneously, new facts for variations of velocities u, v, and w, i.e., the upward, horizontal, and spanwise directions, and wake motion by cylinder heating are first elucidated. Here STA is defined such that, in velocities u, v, and w, laminar velocities arise in at least one directions but turbulence arises in the remainder of directions. 1. STA is determined to arise in isothermal and heated wakes by employing the new method. With cylinder heating, STA is found to be suppressed because the turbulent region in w is decreased, the three-dimensionality is suppressed, but the two-dimensionality and laminarization are enhanced in the heated wake. 2. With cylinder heating, the spanwise velocity |w| is found to be suppressed strongly in the probability density function... |
