This book was released on 2000 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The potential benefits of using the Nonlinear Disturbance (NLD) equations, which govern flow variable fluctuations about an estimated mean, for the large-eddy simulation (LES) of wall bounded shear flows are investigated in this paper. In addition to verifying the suitability of the NLD equations for wall bounded flows, we build upon its advantages by introducing a new wall model that is easily and efficiently implemented within the NLD equation framework. The model implementation consists of defining a near wall region in which a modified linear set of equations are solved. The linear equation set allows disturbances to pass through and interact with the wall without altering the estimated mean. The streamwise and spanwise grid resolution of this near wall region can therefore be significantly relaxed while maintaining reasonable mean quantities such as skin friction. Comparisons of predicted turbulence intensity profiles and wall pressure spectra to experimental data for a fully developed turbulent flat plate boundary layer are used to verify the suitability of the NLD equations for wall bounded flows. Preliminary results of a turbulent channel flow simulation are also presented to assess the new wall model.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new hybrid approach to model high Reynolds number wall-bounded turbulent flows is developed based on coupling the two-level simulation (TLS) approach in the inner region with conventional large eddy simulation (LES) away from the wall. This new approach is significantly different from previous near-wall approaches for LES. In this hybrid TLS-LES approach, a very fine small-scale (SS) mesh is embedded inside the coarse LES mesh in the near-wall region. The SS equations capture fine-scale temporal and spatial variations in all three cartesian directions for all three velocity components near the wall. The TLS-LES equations are derived based on defining a new scale separation operator. The TLS-LES equations in the transition region are obtained by blending the TLS large-scale and LES equations. A new incompressible parallel flow solver is developed that accurately and reliably predicts turbulent flows using TLS-LES. The solver uses a primitive variable formulation based on an artificial compressibility approach and a dual time stepping method. The advective terms are discretized using fourth-order energy conservative finite differences. The SS equations are also integrated in parallel, which reduces the overall cost of the TLS-LES approach. The TLS-LES approach is validated and investigated for canonical channel flows, channel flow with adverse pressure gradient and asymmetric plane diffuser flow. The results suggest that the TLS-LES approach yields very reasonable predictions of most of the crucial flow features in spite of using relatively coarse grids.

This book was released on 2008-06-26 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational resources have developed to the level that, for the first time, it is becoming possible to apply large-eddy simulation (LES) to turbulent flow problems of realistic complexity. Many examples can be found in technology and in a variety of natural flows. This puts issues related to assessing, assuring, and predicting the quality of LES into the spotlight. Several LES studies have been published in the past, demonstrating a high level of accuracy with which turbulent flow predictions can be attained, without having to resort to the excessive requirements on computational resources imposed by direct numerical simulations. However, the setup and use of turbulent flow simulations requires a profound knowledge of fluid mechanics, numerical techniques, and the application under consideration. The susceptibility of large-eddy simulations to errors in modelling, in numerics, and in the treatment of boundary conditions, can be quite large due to nonlinear accumulation of different contributions over time, leading to an intricate and unpredictable situation. A full understanding of the interacting error dynamics in large-eddy simulations is still lacking. To ensure the reliability of large-eddy simulations for a wide range of industrial users, the development of clear standards for the evaluation, prediction, and control of simulation errors in LES is summoned. The workshop on Quality and Reliability of Large-Eddy Simulations, held October 22-24, 2007 in Leuven, Belgium (QLES2007), provided one of the first platforms specifically addressing these aspects of LES.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis work, large eddy simulation was used to study a variety of wall-bounded turbulent flows using a compressible finite volume formulation. Subgrid scale terms in both momentum and energy equations were modeled dynamically. Furthermore, due to the inhomogeniety of wall-bounded flows, the model was further localized to better represent the physics of the problem. The model was first applied to study the incompressible turbulent flow through a duct with square cross-section. Mean flow, law of the wall, and turbulence statistics were compared with the benchmark results of direct numerical simulation and excellent agreement was achieved. The secondary flow in the cross-section was captured. It is composed of four pairs of counter-rotating cells. The interaction between mean and secondary flow fields creates some important features and they were studied in this work. Based on incompressible duct flow, system rotation was applied to investigate the effects of rotation on the turbulent flow field. The system rotation was found to reduce turbulence level on the leading side, while increase turbulence level on the trailing side. Because of the rotation, the secondary flow field in non-rotating duct was found to be diminished at weaker rotation and even eliminated at stronger rotation. Instead, a pair of counter rotating cells called Taylor-Görtler vortices, as well as the Taylor-Proudman regime, was found to exist in the cross-section, which is consistent with the results of the literature. Large eddy simulation was also applied to investigate the effects of ribs and system rotation on heat transfer in a channel. It was found that a rib creates recirculation zones near the rib. The turbulence level is at its maximum near the ribs. The existence of ribs enhances heat transfer significantly over the plane channel, as well as creates low-heat-transfer-coefficient region in the recirculation zones. This means a balance is needed between global enhancement and local suppression. With system rotation, heat transfer is greatly enhanced on the trailing side, while significantly reduced on the leading side.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The issue of modeling the instantaneous viscous and pressure stresses at the wall is addressed via a review of the OLES simulation of turbulent channel flow performed by Das (2004). In this approach, a buffer region with zero velocity is attached adjacent to the wall, and the extended velocity field is filtered using a Fourier-cutoff filter in all directions. The instantaneous wall stresses are then obtained using a "no leakage" condition, where the energy in the buffer-region is minimized at every time-step. Some changes are introduced to the previous formulation---the nonlinear and subgrid terms in the LES equation are obtained using a nonlocal re-filtering approach and a "matched buffer" condition is used to obtain the wall stresses. Simulations performed using both the "no leakage" and "matched buffer" conditions yield statistics which compare well with DNS data. Some numerical experiments involving the linear OLES kernel are also performed, where it is shown that the positive eigenvalues in the kernel and the skew-symmetric part of the kernel are important.

This book was released on 2019 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose of this thesis has been to contribute to the development of methodologies for wall modeling Large Eddy Simulations (LES) of wall-bounded flows, especially those at high Reynolds numbers. This flow configuration is widely found in a vast range of industrial applications. Unfortunately, given the physical nature of boundary layers, their accurate numerical resolution can be computationally unaffordable. Wall modeling aims at reproducing the inner layer effects on the flow without resolving it explicitly. This allows performing accurate numerical simulations of high Reynolds number wall-bounded flows at a fraction of the cost that would be incurred if the inner layer was temporally and spatially resolved. This work comprises six chapters. The first one is an introduction to the existing Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) approaches, from the most accurate and general methodologies to the most simplified and specific techniques. The second chapter introduces relevant physical magnitudes to be analyzed to ensure the reliability of a given high fidelity CFD simulation. Spatial and temporal aspects, both crucial for a correct and accurate resolution of a turbulent flow, are considered. In the third chapter, a Two-Layer wall shear stress model (TLM) for LES and suitable for non-equilibrium flows and complex geometries is presented. Wall shear stress models in general, and RANS-based wall models (WM) in particular, are affected by the "log-layer mismatch" (LLM) and the resolved Reynolds stresses (RRS) inflow problems which undermine the quality of the WM numerical predictions. The model presented in this work features a temporal filter in the WM/LES interface which allows solving both problems at once with a single and low-computational-cost step. Until now, these two problems have been dealt with separately with different techniques, which in some cases were complex and computationally expensive. On the other hand, a methodology intended to determine the optimal temporal filter length is proposed and validated in equilibrium and non-equilibrium conditions. This new technique is based on the velocity power spectrum which reveals the flow characteristic time-scales in the near-wall region. According to the results obtained in the validation tests, it is concluded that for RANS-based TLM methods, time-resolved frequencies higher than the energy-containing/inertial range limit must be filtered. In chapter four, the mathematical model of the TLM, based on the URANS equations, is presented. Moreover, its numerical resolution through the finite volume method is developed and finally summarized in a flow-chart. Then, in chapter five, the algorithmic implementation of the numerical model described in chapter four is presented. The TLM is a fully operational and independent CFD solver based on the URANS equations, which has been developed from scratch. Given that the primary objective of wall modeling is reducing the computational costs, an efficient algorithmic and parallel implementation is a key aspect of the global modeling strategy. Thus, the parallel efficiency is evaluated through a strong scalability test. Good results are obtained although some aspects to be improved are identified. Finally, in the last chapter, general conclusions concerning the whole work are given together with future research proposals aimed at going further in the methodologies studied in this thesis.

Book excerpt: Fundamental studies of wall-bounded turbulent flows were conducted with the aim of developing models that capture its correct spectral behavior and that allow prediction of Reynolds stress distributions in wall-bounded flows across a large range of Reynolds numbers. The model accounts for the recent new findings in wall turbulence concerning large-scale motions and the interaction with the wall and drag producing mechanisms. The experimental results shed light on the important differences between pipe, channel and boundary layer flows, which to date have been regarded as equivalent. The model forms the basis of a new approach to the near-wall model problem in LES (large-eddy simulation), and preliminary results show it to work effectively as a correction scheme for spatial resolution effects in hot-wire anemometry measurements in wall-turbulence.
