INFORMATION ABOUT THE RE2000 2D SPECTRA FILES
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
There are 20 files,
Re2000.spe.j?? ---> Spectrum at heigth ??
FOR CONVENIENCE, some of the header information from all the spectra are
collected in the text file "spsumm.2000.txt", in this directory
----
The files are written in the standard BINARY FORTRAN UNFORMATTED fashion, and
the Byte ordering of each 4-Byte word is LITTLE ENDIAN.
We have stored the 2D spectra at different wall-distances.
If you try to read these files in MATLAB or C, take into account that IFORT adds 4
bytes at the end and beggining of each record
----
The 1st record is a header with the following information:
utau,re,alp,bet,mx,my,mz,nplan,nacum,jind,nvar
utau (4 Bytes real) : Friction velocity in computational units
re (4 Bytes real) : Reynolds number based on"some" bulk mean velocity
in the channel (actually 1/nu is comput. units).
alp (4 Bytes real) : A parameter which gives the length
of the computational box. Lx/h=2*pi/alp.
bet (4 Bytes real) : A parameter which gives the width
of the computational box. Lz/h=2*pi/bet.
mx (4 Bytes integer) : Number of Fourier Galerkin modes in the
streamwise direction.
my (4 Bytes integer) : Number of grid points in the
wall-normal direction.
mz (4 Bytes integer) : Number of Fourier Galerkin modes in the
spanwise direction.
nplan(4 Bytes integer) : Total number of spectral planes collected
nacum(4 Bytes integer) : Number of fields that have been accumulated to
average the spectra
jind (4 Bytes integer) : Index of spectrum in jsp (see 2nd record).
nvar (4 Bytes integer) : Number of spectral quantities collected. In most cases
seven, except for Re2000 where there are 8, see below)
----
The 2nd record is a header with the following information:
(jsp(j), j=1,nplan) (4 Bytes integer): indexes corresponding to the
position in the grid of the planes of the spectra.
The corresponding coordinates are
(y(j)/h, j=1,nplan) (4 Bytes real): wall-normal coordinates of all spectra.
----
The following nvar records have:
((sp(ix,iz),ix=1,nx1), iz=1,nz1) (4 Bytes real):
2D spectrum at y(jind)
nx1=mx/2, nz1=(mz+1)/2
and
var = 1 -> uu
var = 2 -> vv
var = 3 -> ww
var = 4 -> Re(u*v)
var = 5 -> Ox*Ox
var = 6 -> Oy*Oy
var = 7 -> Oz*Oz
var = 8 -> Im(u*v) ONLY for Retau=2000 !!!
---
WARNING: The final spectra is sp = sp/nacum
