Synopsis

Turbulence modelling has long been, and will remain, one of the most important t- ics in turbulence research, challenging scientists and engineers in the academic world and in the industrial society. Over the past decade, Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) and other hybrid RANS-LES methods have received increasing attention from the turbulence-research community, as well as from industrial CFD engineers. Indeed, as an engineering modelling approach, hybrid RANS-LES methods have acquired a remarkable profile in modelling turbulent flows of industrial interest in relation to, for example, transportation, energy production and the environment. The advantage exploited with hybrid RANS-LES modelling approaches, being - tentially more computationally efficient than LES and more accurate than (unsteady) RANS, has motivated numerous research and development activities. These activities, together with industrial applications, have been further facilitated over the recent years by the rapid development of modern computing resources. As a European initiative, the EU project DESider (Detached Eddy Simulation for Industrial Aerodynamics, 2004-2007), has been one of the earliest and most systematic international R&D effort with its focus on development, improvement and applications of a variety of existing and new hybrid RANS-LES modelling approaches, as well as on related numerical issues. In association with the DESider project, two subsequent international symposia on hybrid RANS-LES methods have been arranged in Stockholm (Sweden, 2005) and in Corfu (Greece, 2007), respectively. The present book is a result of the Second Symposium on Hybrid RANS-LES Methods, held in Corfu, Greece, 17-18 June 2007.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

This volume contains papers contributed to the Second Symposium on Hybrid RANS-LES Methods, held in Corfu, Greece, 17-18 June 2007. All the papers have undergone further review and revision after the symposium, which has covered a number of relevant topics in the field. These include Unsteady RANS and LES, Improved DES Methods, Hybrid RANS-LES Methods, Embedded LES, DES-related Numerical Issues, Performance of the New SAS Model, as well as Industrial Applications of DES. Papers represent a leading part of current studies and achievements on the fundamentals of hybrid RANS-LES methods in general, as well as on their applications to industrial flow problems. Among the contributed papers, three invited keynote papers by B. Geurts, U. Piomelli and P. Sagaut, are presented together with an overview paper by P. Spalart.
