1 00:00:10,500 --> 00:00:12,910 PROFESSOR: So as a technical aside, 2 00:00:12,910 --> 00:00:18,760 let me go through and sketch the derivation of the structure 3 00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:21,910 of a turbulent jet, in particular the conical shape 4 00:00:21,910 --> 00:00:25,160 that we have when the flow is turbulent. 5 00:00:25,160 --> 00:00:27,280 So in order to study the mean flow profile 6 00:00:27,280 --> 00:00:29,020 we began with the Navier-Stokes equations 7 00:00:29,020 --> 00:00:31,870 which describe the momentum conservation and mass 8 00:00:31,870 --> 00:00:36,160 conservation or continuity of an incomprehensible so-called 9 00:00:36,160 --> 00:00:38,220 Newtonian fluid. 10 00:00:38,220 --> 00:00:41,440 So this is a complicated set of equations. 11 00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:44,270 In particular, we have this nonlinear term here, 12 00:00:44,270 --> 00:00:45,840 which is the inertial term. 13 00:00:45,840 --> 00:00:48,460 And we've already said that we had our high Reynolds number 14 00:00:48,460 --> 00:00:51,010 and turbulence results because the inertia is 15 00:00:51,010 --> 00:00:57,080 very strong compared to the viscous term which is here. 16 00:00:57,080 --> 00:01:00,340 So that's the divergence of the viscous 17 00:01:00,340 --> 00:01:02,570 or the viscous forces on the fluid. 18 00:01:02,570 --> 00:01:04,550 So these two terms we know are important. 19 00:01:04,550 --> 00:01:07,720 They have to balance and the inertia is particularly strong 20 00:01:07,720 --> 00:01:11,800 and it is what leads to the very complicated flows that we see. 21 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:15,700 So you can solve these equations numerically on a computer 22 00:01:15,700 --> 00:01:18,340 and generate simulations that look a lot like experiments 23 00:01:18,340 --> 00:01:20,170 on turbulent jets. 24 00:01:20,170 --> 00:01:23,050 What I'd like to do here is just to derive by simple scaling 25 00:01:23,050 --> 00:01:25,690 arguments what sort of the structure of the solutions 26 00:01:25,690 --> 00:01:27,170 could look like. 27 00:01:27,170 --> 00:01:29,500 So these two terms, as we just indicated, 28 00:01:29,500 --> 00:01:32,259 are the ones that are most likely to balance in the time 29 00:01:32,259 --> 00:01:33,009 average flow. 30 00:01:33,009 --> 00:01:39,380 So let's consider a time averaged 31 00:01:39,380 --> 00:01:49,130 steady flow which has a velocity component of v_z 32 00:01:49,130 --> 00:01:52,360 that depends on r and z. 33 00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:55,270 So it's basically something like this, 34 00:01:55,270 --> 00:01:57,720 which is basically expanding, but has 35 00:01:57,720 --> 00:02:00,720 a certain sort of localization of the flow in the middle. 36 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:02,820 And it's smooth because we're averaging over all 37 00:02:02,820 --> 00:02:04,050 the complexity of the jets. 38 00:02:04,050 --> 00:02:07,310 So the jet looks something like this with all kinds of vortices 39 00:02:07,310 --> 00:02:08,729 and eddies that are getting bigger 40 00:02:08,729 --> 00:02:12,390 as it goes as you're entraining more 41 00:02:12,390 --> 00:02:16,470 and more air from the outside. 42 00:02:16,470 --> 00:02:18,470 So we're going to look at the time average flow. 43 00:02:18,470 --> 00:02:22,230 And we're also going to, importantly, 44 00:02:22,230 --> 00:02:27,780 assume that we have an eddy viscosity. 45 00:02:31,829 --> 00:02:35,310 So the kinematic viscosity, nu in the equations 46 00:02:35,310 --> 00:02:38,820 as I've written them here, represents the diffusion 47 00:02:38,820 --> 00:02:39,329 momentum. 48 00:02:39,329 --> 00:02:41,880 If a parcel of fluid is moving with a certain momentum, 49 00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:44,400 it has a chance of passing that momentum 50 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,829 to the neighboring fluid and moving it along with it. 51 00:02:46,829 --> 00:02:50,560 And that is accomplished through viscous stresses. 52 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:54,030 So the eddy viscosity basically assumes 53 00:02:54,030 --> 00:02:56,340 that that diffusion process from momentum 54 00:02:56,340 --> 00:03:00,930 happens at the scale of the largest eddy in the flow. 55 00:03:00,930 --> 00:03:04,860 And so we've talked about the assumption of eddy diffusivity. 56 00:03:04,860 --> 00:03:06,630 But for eddy viscosity, what I'll write 57 00:03:06,630 --> 00:03:10,140 is the eddy viscosity is a typical velocity 58 00:03:10,140 --> 00:03:15,100 which is v_z times a length scale which is delta. 59 00:03:15,100 --> 00:03:17,100 So what I'm saying here with this 60 00:03:17,100 --> 00:03:21,579 is that if I go out to a certain position z and ask myself, 61 00:03:21,579 --> 00:03:24,090 what is the sort of width of the jet at site z, 62 00:03:24,090 --> 00:03:27,090 then there's all kinds of eddies but the largest eddy 63 00:03:27,090 --> 00:03:29,470 is kind of at that scale. 64 00:03:29,470 --> 00:03:31,200 And so if I write down an eddy viscosity 65 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,360 it's going to be these sort of average velocity 66 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:35,380 there are times that scale. 67 00:03:35,380 --> 00:03:37,050 So that's going to be the eddy velocity. 68 00:03:37,050 --> 00:03:38,110 And I'm going to replace-- 69 00:03:38,110 --> 00:03:39,560 so when I do my time averaging, I'm 70 00:03:39,560 --> 00:03:41,880 going to replace the microscopic viscosity 71 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,220 of the fluid, kinematic viscosity, 72 00:03:44,220 --> 00:03:46,560 with the eddy viscosity. 73 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:49,920 So that's an important modification. 74 00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:50,910 And so if I do that. 75 00:03:50,910 --> 00:03:53,579 If I do this time averaging and look at the eddy viscosity, 76 00:03:53,579 --> 00:03:55,680 then I take these two terms and balance them, 77 00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:00,550 I'm going to get v_z bar, so that's my average v_z. 78 00:04:00,550 --> 00:04:03,060 I'm looking at the z component of momentum 79 00:04:03,060 --> 00:04:06,300 here of that first Navier-Stokes equation. 80 00:04:06,300 --> 00:04:18,050 And I get v_z dot derivative of v_z with respect to z plus v_r. 81 00:04:18,050 --> 00:04:21,329 And there's also an r component of velocity. 82 00:04:21,329 --> 00:04:22,920 So there is also some velocity in fact 83 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:26,930 which is coming in from the sides. 84 00:04:26,930 --> 00:04:33,960 But I'm just going be interested in this term here v_z dr. 85 00:04:33,960 --> 00:04:40,800 And I'm going to balance this against the eddy viscosity, 86 00:04:40,800 --> 00:04:42,240 the eddy-- 87 00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:47,040 or nu eddy I should say, sorry, nu eddy is eddy viscosity-- 88 00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:58,140 times and then the Laplacian in is 1 r d/dr r dv_z dr. So 89 00:04:58,140 --> 00:05:00,870 that's just the Laplacian in its cylindrical coordinates. 90 00:05:00,870 --> 00:05:06,210 And now I'm going to make the assumption that this ve 91 00:05:06,210 --> 00:05:12,790 scales as v bar z times delta. 92 00:05:12,790 --> 00:05:14,290 And so now I'm going to do a scaling 93 00:05:14,290 --> 00:05:16,400 analysis on this equation. 94 00:05:16,400 --> 00:05:23,050 And so what we see is we have v_z over z times-- 95 00:05:23,050 --> 00:05:28,530 and then at least for that first so-- 96 00:05:28,530 --> 00:05:30,030 I should say these two terms will 97 00:05:30,030 --> 00:05:32,790 be of comparable size because of incompressibility-- 98 00:05:32,790 --> 00:05:33,820 the second equation. 99 00:05:33,820 --> 00:05:35,550 I won't go through the details of that. 100 00:05:35,550 --> 00:05:37,170 And we'll just do a scaling argument 101 00:05:37,170 --> 00:05:39,280 balancing these two terms. 102 00:05:39,280 --> 00:05:43,470 So if I look at v_z divided by z times v_z 103 00:05:43,470 --> 00:05:45,930 so that's a scaling of those two terms, 104 00:05:45,930 --> 00:05:50,830 I can balance that against v_z delta times-- 105 00:05:50,830 --> 00:05:54,280 and the scale for r is delta. 106 00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:58,170 So I have 1/delta for the 1/r, 107 00:05:58,170 --> 00:06:00,360 1/delta for the derivative times 108 00:06:00,360 --> 00:06:04,560 delta * (1/delta) * v_z. 109 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:05,770 So there's a lot there. 110 00:06:05,770 --> 00:06:08,460 But notice the v_z's all cancel. 111 00:06:08,460 --> 00:06:10,920 And we're left with a bunch of deltas here. 112 00:06:10,920 --> 00:06:13,690 And how many, because of the eddy viscosity, 113 00:06:13,690 --> 00:06:16,470 we are left with-- 114 00:06:16,470 --> 00:06:18,070 all of this is just 1 over delta. 115 00:06:18,070 --> 00:06:19,050 This is 1 over z. 116 00:06:19,050 --> 00:06:24,370 And so we find here the delta scales as z. 117 00:06:24,370 --> 00:06:28,620 So in other words, we have a conical shape. 118 00:06:28,620 --> 00:06:30,040 So the boundary of their thickness 119 00:06:30,040 --> 00:06:31,240 is a constant times z. 120 00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:33,700 And what we write is that delta is equal to alpha z 121 00:06:33,700 --> 00:06:34,560 specifically. 122 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:37,000 And we define the turbulent entrainment coefficient alpha 123 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:38,200 that way. 124 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,700 And then once we've done that, we've 125 00:06:39,700 --> 00:06:45,790 already shown that from the momentum flux 126 00:06:45,790 --> 00:06:53,380 that v_z scales as the square root of k/rho_air 127 00:06:53,380 --> 00:06:56,100 times 1 over delta. 128 00:06:56,100 --> 00:07:00,990 So this basically now gives me the scaling of the problem. 129 00:07:00,990 --> 00:07:03,440 In fact, there is a similarity solution 130 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,350 for the shape this profile that one could solve for. 131 00:07:06,350 --> 00:07:12,230 And it has the form that, for example, the v_z 132 00:07:12,230 --> 00:07:15,290 is square root of-- 133 00:07:15,290 --> 00:07:19,480 because delta is proportional to z. 134 00:07:19,480 --> 00:07:22,100 So it's the square root of k over rho 135 00:07:22,100 --> 00:07:28,700 a z times some function of r over alpha z. 136 00:07:28,700 --> 00:07:30,260 And then there's a similar expression 137 00:07:30,260 --> 00:07:37,430 for the other velocity component. 138 00:07:37,430 --> 00:07:41,550 And the function F looks very much as I've sketched here. 139 00:07:41,550 --> 00:07:44,630 It's essentially a Gaussian type profile or a bell curve 140 00:07:44,630 --> 00:07:48,230 that kind of localizes the velocity across this distance 141 00:07:48,230 --> 00:07:50,570 delta. 142 00:07:50,570 --> 00:07:52,700 The second thing that we're interested in 143 00:07:52,700 --> 00:07:55,460 is the mean concentration. 144 00:08:00,630 --> 00:08:05,040 And that would be a concentration of, let's say, 145 00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:09,390 virions contained in infectious aerosol droplets. 146 00:08:09,390 --> 00:08:11,040 So there's a mean concentration profile 147 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,230 in the jet assuming that we're injecting 148 00:08:13,230 --> 00:08:15,270 a fluid of a constant concentration 149 00:08:15,270 --> 00:08:18,760 at the source of the jet. 150 00:08:18,760 --> 00:08:21,730 So again, we can do some scaling arguments here. 151 00:08:21,730 --> 00:08:24,750 So if we ask ourselves, what is the mass flow 152 00:08:24,750 --> 00:08:31,000 rate through a slice or actually the volumetric flow rate, 153 00:08:31,000 --> 00:08:40,750 use me, that is what is called a Q and it'll just be an average. 154 00:08:40,750 --> 00:08:44,080 This will be the average velocity 155 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:48,500 times the cross-sectional area at a given position. 156 00:08:48,500 --> 00:08:51,410 So this is scaling like-- 157 00:08:51,410 --> 00:08:54,470 so area scaled is like delta squared. 158 00:08:54,470 --> 00:08:57,120 And then the velocity scales in this way is 1 over delta. 159 00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:04,920 So this ends up scaling as k over rho a times just delta. 160 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:09,800 So the volumetric flow rate is increasing 161 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:13,370 with r and that's a sign that we are actually in training fluid 162 00:09:13,370 --> 00:09:14,180 as I indicated. 163 00:09:14,180 --> 00:09:15,950 This is not just the fluid we're injecting 164 00:09:15,950 --> 00:09:18,290 but it's moving forward and it's sucking more fluid in. 165 00:09:18,290 --> 00:09:19,880 And all that fluid is kind of becoming 166 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:24,590 part of the turbulent jet as it grows. 167 00:09:24,590 --> 00:09:30,150 Now if we ask-- so this is our flow rate, volumetric flow 168 00:09:30,150 --> 00:09:32,220 rate, but we can also ask ourselves, 169 00:09:32,220 --> 00:09:39,480 what is the flux of concentration 170 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,050 of virions per unit volume. 171 00:09:43,050 --> 00:09:44,930 Well, that would be the average concentration 172 00:09:44,930 --> 00:09:46,910 times the average flow rate because flow rate 173 00:09:46,910 --> 00:09:49,290 is volume per time and concentration 174 00:09:49,290 --> 00:09:50,490 is number per volume. 175 00:09:50,490 --> 00:09:53,870 So this is a total number per time. 176 00:09:53,870 --> 00:09:57,200 And this we will assume should be a constant 177 00:09:57,200 --> 00:09:59,450 because as you can see from this picture, 178 00:09:59,450 --> 00:10:02,000 if we're injecting a bunch of concentration of let's say 179 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:06,050 droplets here, they will spread out in the turbulent flow 180 00:10:06,050 --> 00:10:08,300 but they don't really have a good mechanism to get out 181 00:10:08,300 --> 00:10:09,210 of the turbulent flow. 182 00:10:09,210 --> 00:10:12,110 The turbulent flow is sucking fluid into the plume 183 00:10:12,110 --> 00:10:13,940 and so the particles are just kind of well 184 00:10:13,940 --> 00:10:16,400 mixed in that plume and we could assume they have a roughly 185 00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,570 constant concentration. 186 00:10:18,570 --> 00:10:23,870 And so, if that's the case, and in fact, this constant 187 00:10:23,870 --> 00:10:29,780 would be lambda Q if we're thinking of, for example, 188 00:10:29,780 --> 00:10:30,530 infect-- 189 00:10:30,530 --> 00:10:32,990 c is the concentration infection quanta. 190 00:10:32,990 --> 00:10:37,340 Then lambda Q is the rate of admission of infection quanta 191 00:10:37,340 --> 00:10:38,060 from the mouth. 192 00:10:38,060 --> 00:10:39,870 We've already talked about that quantity. 193 00:10:39,870 --> 00:10:42,290 And this is now telling me how the concentration infection 194 00:10:42,290 --> 00:10:45,300 quanta decays with time. 195 00:10:45,300 --> 00:10:47,750 And so we find if we substitute now 196 00:10:47,750 --> 00:10:51,920 is that the concentration infection quanta at a position 197 00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:58,300 z scales as so I have to divide by Q so I 198 00:10:58,300 --> 00:10:59,600 get the inverse of this. 199 00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:03,830 So I get square root of rho a over k. 200 00:11:03,830 --> 00:11:09,550 And then I have lambda Q over alpha z. 201 00:11:12,990 --> 00:11:17,850 So this tells me that if I plot as a function of distance 202 00:11:17,850 --> 00:11:20,640 from the mouth in the direction of the jet, 203 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:24,150 the concentration of infection quanta 204 00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:28,170 that are carried by virions in aerosol droplets, 205 00:11:28,170 --> 00:11:31,290 then somewhere here I have, let's say, at z equals 0, 206 00:11:31,290 --> 00:11:34,850 is the mouth where I'm exhaling. 207 00:11:34,850 --> 00:11:40,040 And the concentration there is actually cQ. 208 00:11:40,040 --> 00:11:41,900 In fact that is something we've talked 209 00:11:41,900 --> 00:11:45,140 about before, which is that's the key disease parameter-- 210 00:11:45,140 --> 00:11:48,140 the concentration of infection quanta in the exhaled breath 211 00:11:48,140 --> 00:11:49,430 of an infected person. 212 00:11:49,430 --> 00:11:51,710 So we know at the mouth, that's what we start with. 213 00:11:51,710 --> 00:11:53,870 And what the turbulent theory is telling us 214 00:11:53,870 --> 00:11:58,250 is how that concentration is decaying with time 215 00:11:58,250 --> 00:12:00,650 and is decaying like 1 over z. 216 00:12:00,650 --> 00:12:03,660 And so that tells us sort of our relative risk of infection 217 00:12:03,660 --> 00:12:07,350 in different positions relative to being mouth to mouth 218 00:12:07,350 --> 00:12:09,620 with the infected person.
