A numerical method for large-eddy simulation in complex geometries

Abstract

We discuss the development of a numerical algorithm, and solver capable of performing large-eddy simulation in the very complex geometries often encountered in industrial applications. The algorithm is developed for unstructured hybrid grids, is non-dissipative, yet robust at high Reynolds numbers on highly skewed grids. Simulation results for a variety of flows are presented. © 2003 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
