Large Eddy Simulation of Turbulent Square Channel Flow Using a PC-Cluster Architecture
نویسندگان
چکیده
A fully developed square channel flow with a Reynolds number of Re = 4410 (based on bulk velocity and duct width) has been calculated using Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique with the Smagorinsky eddy viscosity model. Results for the Prandtl’s secondary motion which is turbulence-driven show good qualitative picture and are in good quantitative agreement with values from other authors. Different numerical aspects have been investigated: the size of the numerical grid, the spatial discretization scheme for convection, the time discretization with firstand second-order implicit schemes. The accuracy of the results as well as the resources required for all cases studied are compared and discussed in detail.

In this study, turbulent flow around a tube bundle in non-orthogonal grid is simulated using the Large Eddy Simulation (LES) technique and parallelization of fully coupled Navier – Stokes (NS) equations. To model the small eddies, the Smagorinsky and a mixed model was used. This model represents the effect of dissipation and the grid-scale and subgrid-scale interactions. The fully coupled NS eq...
