Abstract:
Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS), large eddy simulation (LES), and hybrid RANS-LES, first of all wall-modeled LES (WMLES) and detached eddy simulation (DES) methods, are regularly applied for wall-bounded turbulent flow simulations. Their characteristic advantages and disadvantages are well known: significant challenges arise from simulation performance, computational cost, and functionality issues. This paper describes the application of a new simulation approach: continuous eddy simulation (CES). CES is based on exact mathematics, and it is a minimal error method. Its functionality is

Abstract:
Steady Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulation with the mixing-plane approach is the most common procedure to obtain the performance of a centrifugal compressor in an industrial development process. However, the accurate prediction of complicated flow fields in centrifugal compressors is the most significant challenge. Some phenomena such as the impeller-diffuser flow interaction generates the unsteadiness which can affect the steady assumption. The goal of this study is to investigate the differences between the RANS and URANS simulation results in a centrifugal compressor stage. Si

AbstractIt is argued that acoustic resonance phenomena in open cavities such as weapons bays cannot be adequately predicted through numerical solution of Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations. The requirement to resolve the growth of the shear layer instability from the lip of the cavity inevitably implies that turbulence further downstream is resolved while also being modelled thus making RANS over dissipative. Large eddy simulation (LES) models only unresolved scales and a hybrid method combining RANS near walls with LES in the cavity appears a practical alternative to pure RANS.

Abstract:
Detached Eddy Simulation(DES)is quite a new approach for the treatment of turbulence, which unites the efficiency of Reynolds Averaged Navier-Stokes Simulation (RANS) and the accuracy of Large Eddy Simulation (LES) into one framework. In this paper, DES method based on Spalart-Allmaras (S-A) turbulence model is employed to simulate the incompressible viscous flow around bridge decks. In order to obtain the aerodynamic forces, the forced motion simulations of the bridge decks are implemented by self-developed codes combined with FLUENT software. After obtaining the aerodynamic forces, aerodynam

Abstract:
Jets at higher Reynolds numbers have a high concentration of energy in small scales in the nozzle vicinity. This is challenging for large-eddy simulation, potentially placing severe demands on grid density. To circumvent this, we propose a novel procedure based on well-known Reynolds number (Re) independent of jets. We reduce the jet Re while rescaling the boundary layer properties to maintain incoming boundary layer thickness consistent with high Re jet. The simulations are carried out using hybrid large-eddy simulation type of approach which is incorporated by using near-wall turbulence mode

Abstract:
The 3D numerical simulation was carried out for an idealized Rankine vortex using nonlineark-εmodel (one kind of RANS model) and large eddy simulation (LES) techniques. In this 3D simulation, the vortex flow field was given to rotate with the vertical axis in a free surface rectangular domain. In order to investigate the predictability of standard (linear) and non-lineark-εmodels, the decay of a trailing vortex was simulated and compared with previous DNS data. The governing equations for mean velocities and turbulent flows were discretized with the finite volume method based on a staggered gr

The complex flow physics challenges and asks questions regarding these challenges a wide range of jet flows found in aerospace engineering. Hence, the daunting task facing Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) technology, for which the time average of the turbulent flow field is solved, is set out. Despite the clear potential of large eddy simulation (LES)-related methods and hybrid forms involving some RANS modelling, numerous current deficiencies, mostly related to the limitations of computational resources, are identified. It is concluded that currently, these limitations make LES and hybr

The paper presents a synthetic turbulence generator (STG) for the lattice Boltzmann method (LBM) at the interface of the Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) equations and the LBM large eddy simulation (LES). We first obtain the RANS velocity field from a finite volume solver at the interface. Then, we apply a numerical interpolation from the RANS velocity field to the LBM velocity field due to the different grid types of RANS and LBM. The STG method generates the velocity fluctuations, and the regularized LBM reconstructs the particle distribution functions at the interface. We perform a tu

The gas turbine presents significant challenges to any computational fluid dynamics techniques. The combination of a wide range of flow phenomena with complex geometry is difficult to model in the context of Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS) solvers. We review the potential for large eddy simulation (LES) in modelling the flow in the different components of the gas turbine during a practical engineering design cycle. We show that while LES has demonstrated considerable promise for reliable prediction of many flows in the engine that are difficult for RANS it is not a panacea and considera

A flow simulation Methodology (FSM) is presented for computing the time-dependent behavior of complex compressible turbulent flows. The development of FSM was initiated in close collaboration with C.

The strategy is implemented by using state-of-the-art turbulence models (as developed for Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS)) and scaling of the model terms with a “contribution function.” The contribution funct

Abstract:
The numerical simulation approach of heat carrier mixing regimes in the T-junction shows that the RANS approach is beneficial for a qualitative flow analysis to obtain relatively agreed averaged velocity and temperature. Moreover, traditionally, the RANS approach only predicts the averaged temperature distribution. This mathematical model did not consider the temperature fluctuation variations important for the thermal fatigue task. It should also be emphasized that unlike the LES approach, the steady RANS approach cannot express a local flow structure in intense mixing zones. Nevertheless, ap

Detached eddy simulation (DES) has been widely applied in crosswind stability simulations of trains in recent years. As DES is a hybrid Reynolds Averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS)/large eddy simulation approach, the choice of the RANS model associated with DES is a key factor for an accurate numerical simulation. However, the influence of the RANS model on the flow around trains was not fully investigated in previous researches. In this study, DES with the Spalart–Allmaras (SA) model (SA-DES) and shear stress transport (SST) k−ω model (SST-DES) have been investigated owing to their ability to predi

The discretization error is estimated by employing two grid levels: a fine mesh of 20 million cells and a coarser mesh of 2.5 million cells.
