Subgrid-modelling in LES of compressible flow

Modelling effects of subgrid-scale mixture fraction variance in LES of a piloted diffusion flame

LES modelling of flow in a simple airway model.

Detailed information about the flow field pattern is highly important in accurately predicting particle deposition sites in the human airway. Flow in the upper airway during heavy breathing can have a Reynolds number as high as 9300, and therefore presents turbulent features. Although turbulence is believed to have an important effect on the airflow and other transport processes in the bronchia...

Inviscid Compressible Flow in Meridional Plane of an Axial Flow Compressor

In this paper it is attempted to investigate the behavior of an inviscid flow in the meridional plane of an axial flow compressor. For this purpose the 3-D unsteady Euler equations in cylindrical coordinate are averaged in tangential direction. Therefore, the equations are reduced to a 2-D system. By averaging the tangential component of momentum equation, a blade force will result. Axial and r...

Subgrid-scale modeling for Large-eddy simulations of compressible turbulence

We present two phenonmenological subgrid-scale (SGS) models for large-eddy simulations (LES) of compressible turbulent flows. A nonlinear model and a stretched-vortex model are tested in LES of compressible decaying isotropic turbulence. Results of LES at 32 resolution are compared to corresponding 256 direct numerical simulations (DNS). We use numerical schemes based on compact differences and...

Subgrid modelling for geophysical flows.

Recently developed closure-based and stochastic model approaches to subgrid-scale modelling of eddy interactions are reviewed. It is shown how statistical dynamical closure models can be used to self-consistently calculate the eddy damping and stochastic backscatter parameters, required in large eddy simulations (LESs), from higher resolution simulations. A closely related direct stochastic mod...
