Vorticity dynamics and turbulence models for Large-Eddy Simulations

We consider in this paper the problem of finding appropriate models for Large Eddy Simulations of turbulent incompressible flows from a mathematical point of view. The Smagorinsky model is analyzed and the vorticity formulation of the Navier–Stokes equations is used to explore more efficient subgrid-scale models as minimal regularizations of these equations. Two classes of variants of the Smagorinsky model emerge from this approach: a model based on anisotropic turbulent viscosity...

Mathematical and numerical analysis of an alternative well-posed two-layer turbulence model

Bijan Mohammadi, Guillaume Puigt (2001)

Similarity:

In this article, we wish to investigate the behavior of a two-layer k - ε turbulence model from the mathematical point of view, as this model is useful for the near-wall treatment in numerical simulations. First, we explain the difficulties inherent in the model. Then, we present a new variable θ that enables the mathematical study. Due to a problem of definition of the turbulent viscosity on the wall boundary, we consider an alternative version of the original equation. We show that some...

On Bardina and Approximate Deconvolution Models

Roger Lewandowski (2011-2012)

Séminaire Laurent Schwartz — EDP et applications

Similarity:

We first outline the procedure of averaging the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations when the flow is turbulent for various type of filters. We introduce the turbulence model called Bardina’s model, for which we are able to prove existence and uniqueness of a distributional solution. In order to reconstruct some of the flow frequencies that are underestimated by Bardina’s model, we next introduce the approximate deconvolution model (ADM). We prove existence and uniqueness of a “regular...
