Conclusions and future workConclusions and future work
LES of Industrial flow• Complex geometry LES easier than smooth channel flow • Responds to Industry needs:
Thermal stresses, fatigue, Acoustics, FIV (vibrations)• Cost-wise accessible when limited to sub-domain
(next step RANS-Embedded LES ) • Unstructured griding with professional software:
• Flexibility• Possible Quasi-DNS near wall resolution at Medium Re numbers• 2nd order accuracy may be sufficient.
• Further developments and validation needed: • More griding flexibility (total cell size control from pre-simulation RANS and/or coarse LES).• Further testing of Polyhedral cells for LES (advantage: Energy conservation). • Run a benchmark computations to compare LES predictions with different codes (in-house via commercial).
