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.

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.

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.

Download or read book A New Eddy Based Model for Wall Bounded Turbulent Flows written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 10 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. 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.

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.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wall-bounded turbulent flows are prevalent in engineering and industrial applications. Walls greatly affect turbulent characteristics in many ways including production and propagation of turbulent stresses. While computational fluid dynamics can be used as an important design tool, its use is hindered due to the fine-mesh requirements in the near-wall region to capture all of the pertinent turbulent data. To resolve all relevant scales of motion, the number of grid points scales with Reynolds number as N ≈ Re^(9/4), making it nearly impossible to solve real engineering problems, most of which feature high Reynolds numbers. A method to help alleviate the resolution requirements is the use of wall models. This method allows for a coarser mesh to be used in which the near-wall region is modeled and the first grid point is placed in the log-law region. The shear stress at the wall is correlated with the velocity at a point outside the near-wall region, drastically reducing the number of elements required and reducing the computational time and cost of the simulation. The goal of this study was to test the speed increase and element reduction capabilities of combining a wall function solution with the massively-parallel, spectral element solver, Nek5000, and verify the method using a turbulent channel simulation. The first grid point is placed at y+ = 100, in the log-law region, for Re[subscript Tau] = 950 and the sub-grid scales are modeled using a dynamic Smagorinski model. The results are then compared to a DNS performed by Jimenez and Hoyas for model verification. The electronic version of this dissertation is accessible from http://hdl.handle.net/1969.1/149466

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.
