Book excerpt: The influence of the exit boundary conditions (vanishing first derivative of the velocity components and constant pressure) on the large eddy simulation of the fully developed turbulent channel flow has been investigated for equidistant and stretched grids at the channel exit. Results show that the chosen exit boundary conditions introduce some small disturbance which is mostly damped by the grid stretching. The difference between the fully developed turbulent channel flow obtained with LES with periodicity condition and the inlet and exit and the LES with fully developed flow at the inlet and the exit boundary condition is less than 10% for equidistant grids and less than 5% for the case grid stretching. The chosen boundary condition is of interest because it may be used in complex flows with backflow at exit. Cziesla, T. and Braun, H. and Biswas, G. and Mitra, N. K.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a truism that turbulence is an unsolved problem, whether in scientific, engin eering or geophysical terms. It is strange that this remains largely the case even though we now know how to solve directly, with the help of sufficiently large and powerful computers, accurate approximations to the equations that govern tur bulent flows. The problem lies not with our numerical approximations but with the size of the computational task and the complexity of the solutions we gen erate, which match the complexity of real turbulence precisely in so far as the computations mimic the real flows. The fact that we can now solve some turbu lence in this limited sense is nevertheless an enormous step towards the goal of full understanding. Direct and large-eddy simulations are these numerical solutions of turbulence. They reproduce with remarkable fidelity the statistical, structural and dynamical properties of physical turbulent and transitional flows, though since the simula tions are necessarily time-dependent and three-dimensional they demand the most advanced computer resources at our disposal. The numerical techniques vary from accurate spectral methods and high-order finite differences to simple finite-volume algorithms derived on the principle of embedding fundamental conservation prop erties in the numerical operations. Genuine direct simulations resolve all the fluid motions fully, and require the highest practical accuracy in their numerical and temporal discretisation. Such simulations have the virtue of great fidelity when carried out carefully, and repre sent a most powerful tool for investigating the processes of transition to turbulence.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers the proceedings of the 12th instalment in the bi-annual Workshop series on Direct and Large Eddy Simulation (DLES), which began in 1994 and focuses on modern techniques used to simulate turbulent flows based on the partial or full resolution of the instantaneous turbulent flow structure. With the rapidly expanding capacities of modern computers, this approach has attracted more and more interest over the years and will undoubtedly be further enhanced and applied in the future. Hybrid modelling techniques based on a combination of LES and RANS approaches also fall into this category and are covered as well. The goal of the Workshop was to share the state of the art in DNS, LES and related techniques for the computation and modelling of turbulent and transitional flows. The respective papers highlight the latest advances in the prediction, understanding and control of turbulent flows in academic and industrial applications.

Download or read book Large Eddy Simulation of Rough Surface Flow in Shallow Open Channels written by Zeng Zhang and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Open channels often have a rough bed surface. A good understanding of the characteristics of water flow over the rough bed is important for many applications in hydraulic engineering. Examples include investigations of the re-suspension and transport of contaminated bed materials, channel erosion, and the effectiveness of dissipating excessive flow energy. In this thesis, the rough surface was created by placing transverse bars at a flat channel-bed in one case and cubes in the other case, and the velocity field of rough-surface flow was computed through large eddy simulations (LES). This thesis aims to evaluate suitable computing strategies, validate computational results using available experimental data, and explore the detailed structures of near-bed flow. On the basis of the bars centre-to-centre spacing, , relative to their vertical dimension, k, studies of the rough-surface flow classify the rough elements as k-type and d-type ribs. Previous experimental studies of the rough-surface flow have produced some measurements of flow velocities, provided assessments of the suitability of existing methods for determining the shear velocity, and comparisons of characteristics between flow over d-type ribs and that over smooth walls, as well as between flow over ribs and that over transverse rows of staggered cubes. The main findings were that similarities existed in the outer layer between flow over three-dimensional roughness and flow over smooth walls. Some previous numerical studies introduced a form-drag term in the momentum equation to indirectly allow for the effect of roughness on the flow. Other numerical studies used obstacles as bed roughness elements, and applied non-slip conditions at their surfaces. A significant limitation of the previous studies is the use of conditions of fully developed boundary layer flow with zero-pressure gradient. This would be very approximate for water flows in shallow open channels. The canonical turbulent boundary layers are not expected to be valid, because the boundary layer thickness is a significant fraction of the depth of flow. Further investigations of the flow characteristics are needed. The large eddy simulations reported in this thesis capture the flow characteristics in the near-bed region. They gave numerical predictions of the flow field over transverse bars in shallow open channels at a range of /k ratios. The predictions provide accurate horizontal turbulence intensities, and horizontal velocity. It seems that large eddy simulations produce accurate flow characteristics in the streamwise direction, but less accurate results in the vertical direction. A plausible reason is the side wall effects. It is challenging to realistically capture secondary flow that creates transverse vortices in the transverse direction on both sides of the channel. These vortices cause upward motions at the middle of the channel. The power spectrum density (PSD) curves for all the runs show characteristics of energy cascade that are consistent with the results reported in the literature (Rodi, 2017), in particular the energy distribution for the inertia subrange. It has been concluded that: 1) an increase in the n/k ratio leads to a decrease in the region of reverse flow within the cavity, and an increase in the shear stress on the upstream face of transverse bars; 2) in the case of flow over staggered cubes, they tend to restrict reverse flow, and cause the shear stress at the upstream edge of the cubes to increase; 3) it is suitable to apply cyclic boundary conditions in both the transverse and streamwise directions in simulations of fully developed flow.

This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume contains papers presented to a EUROMECH-Colloquium held in Munich, September 30 to October 2, 1985. The Colloquium is number 199 in a series of colloquia inaugurated by the European Mechanics Committee. The meeting was jointly organized by the 'Lehrstuhl fur Stromungsmechanik' at the 'Technische Universitat Munchen' and the 'Institut fur Physik der Atmosphare' of the 'Deutsche Forschungs- und Versuchsanstalt fur Luft- und Raumfahrt' (DFVLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen. 'Direct' and 'large eddy simulation' are terms which denote two closely con nected methods of turbulence research. In a 'direct simulation' (DS), turbu lent motion is simulated by numerically integrating the Navier-Stokes equations in three-dimensional space and as a function of time. Besides ini tial and boundary conditions no physical simplifications are involved. Com puter resources limit the resolution in time and space, though simulations with an order of one million discrete points in space are feasible. The simu lated flow fields can be considered as true realizations of turbulent flow fields and analysed to answer questions on the basic behaviour of turbulence. Direct simulations are valid as long as all the excited scales remain within the band of resolved scales. This means that viscosity must be strong enough to damp out the not resolved scales or the simulation is restricted to a lim ited integration-time interval only. In summary, DS provides a tool to investigate turbulent motions from first principles at least for a finite band of scales.
