Efficient treatment of complex geometries for large eddy simulations of turbulent flows
(2004)
Incompressible turbulent flow over a backward facing step at Reh=5100 is investigated by large eddy simulations (LES). The ratio of the oncoming boundary layer thickness δ to the step height h was set to 1.2. Additionally ...
Structure-based turbulence modeling for wall-bounded flows
(2000)
The performance of Reynolds stress transport (RST) models in non-equilibrium flows is limited by the lack of information about two dynamically important effects: The role of energy-containing turbulence structure ...
The transport of a passive scalar in magnetohydrodynamic turbulence subjected to mean shear and frame rotation
(2007)
We consider the transport of a passive scalar under the influence of homogeneous turbulence in a conducting fluid that is exposed to a uniform external magnetic field while being sheared in fixed and rotating frames. The ...
Statistical measures of structural anisotropy in MHD turbulence subjected to mean shear and frame rotation
(2006)
We consider homogeneous turbulence in a conducting fluid that is exposed to a uniform external magnetic field while being sheared in fixed and rotating frames. We take both the frame-rotation axis and the applied magnetic ...
A simplified structure-based model using standard turbulence scale equations: computation of rotating wall-bounded flows
(2006)
Two linear eddy-viscosity models, the v2-f and k-ω models, have been combined with an algebraic structure-based algorithm for the evaluation of the Reynolds stresses. This closure was originally designed as an integral ...
Structure-based turbulence model: Application to a rotating pipe flow
(2002)
A new approach for modeling the one-point turbulence statistics, which takes into account the information on turbulence structure, has been suggested in Kassinos and Reynolds (Report TF-61, Thermosciences Division, Department ...
Structure and scales in turbulence modeling
(2002)
The enstrophy of the large-scale energy-containing turbulence is proposed as the second turbulence scale for use, in conjunction with the turbulence energy, in two-scale one-point engineering turbulence models. Its transport ...
Large-eddy simulations of the turbulent Hartmann flow close to the transitional regime
(2007)
A series of large-eddy simulations (LES) of turbulent and transitional channel flows of a conductive fluid under the effect of a uniform magnetic field applied in the wall-normal direction, usually referred to as Hartmann ...
An analytical solution for rapidly distorted turbulent shear flow in a rotating frame
(2006)
In this study we apply rapid distortion theory to the case of nonstratified homogeneous turbulence that is sheared in a frame that counter-rotates at a rate that matches in magnitude the rotation associated with the mean ...
