RANS may be something of a ‘can of worms’, but is here to stay
Decisive advantages:
Economy, especially in
statistical homogeneous 2d flows
when turbulence is dominated by small, less energetic scales
in the absence of periodic instabilities
Good performance in thin shear and mildly-separated flows, especially
near walls
Predictive capabilities depend greatly on
appropriateness of closure type and details relative to flow characteristics
quality of boundary conditions
user competence

Challenges to RANSChallenges to RANS
Dynamics of large-scale unsteadiness and associated non-locality
Massive separation – large energetic vortices
Unsteady separation from curved surfaces
Reattachment (always highly unsteady)
Unsteady instabilities and interaction with turbulence
Strong non-equilibrium conditions
Interaction between disparate flow regions
post reattachment recovery
wall-shear / free-shear layers
Highly 3d straining – skewing, strong streamwise vorticity

RANS DevelopmentsRANS Developments
Desire to extent generality drives RANS research
Non-linear eddy-viscosity models
Explicit algebraic Reynolds-stress models
Full second-moment closure
Structure-tensor models
multi-scale models…
Simulation plays important role in aiding development and validation
Traditionally, DNS for homogeneous and channel flow at low Re used
Increasingly, LES exploited for complex flow

Wrongly implies that eigenvalues of stress and strain tensors aligned

The Argument for Resolving AnisotropyThe Argument for Resolving Anisotropy
Exact equations imply complex stress-strain linkage
Analogous linkage between scalar fluxes and production
Can be used to demonstrate
Origin of anisotropy in shear and normal straining
Experimentally observed high sensitivity of turbulence to curvature, rotation, swirl, buoyancy and and body forces
Low generation of turbulence in normal straining
Inapplicability of Fourier-Fick law for scalar/heat transport

Wall JetWall Jet
Motivation
RANS models perform poorly in ‘interactive’ flows
Example: post-reattachment recovery
Key feature: interaction between upper (free) shear layer and developing boundary layer
Wall jet is a similar ‘interactive’ flow
LES solutions allow physics of interaction to be studied
Budgets allow a-priori studies of closure assumptions
Requirements for highly-resolved LES
Simulations for real wall as well as shear-free wall
allow viscous and blocking effects to be separated

Concluding RemarksConcluding Remarks
RANS will remain principal approach for many years to come
Recognised by industry – hence increased interest in model
generality
Research pursued on two-point closure, structure modelling, multi- length-scale modelling…. but practical prospects are uncertain
Progress is incremental, slow and costly
Serious model improvements must encompass a broad range of conditions – homogeneous 1D flows to complex 3D flows
There is a need to extend further efforts to complex 3D conditions – the real challenge
![Page 97: Large Eddy Simulation in Aid of RANS Modelling M A Leschziner Imperial College London RANS/LES simulation of flow around a highly-swept wing NUS Turbulence](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062500/56649dd15503460f94ac754d/html5/thumbnails/97.jpg)
LES (& hybrid LES/RANS) of increasing interest – periodicity, shedding, large-scale motion
LES is no panacea and faces significant obstacles in near-wall flows
Poses serious problems in high-Re conditions – wall resolution, grid, cost…
LES can play a very useful role in support of RANS modelling elucidating physics providing wealth of data for validation and a-priori study of closure proposals, especially budget
Necessarily a very costly approach, because of resolution demands
can only be done at relatively low Re
Hybrid RANS / LES strategies hold some promise, but difficult
very active area of research

Wall resolved LES is untenable in high-Re near-wall flow
Near-wall treatment is key to utility of LES in practice
Several approaches:
Wall functions
Zonal methods – thin-shear-flow equations near wall
Hybrid RANS-LES (+ synthetic turbulence)
All pose difficult fundamental and practical questions:
Compatibility of averaging with filtering
Applicability of RANS closure – time-scale separation

Similar to 1-D convection-diffusion problem
Finite-volume method
Central differences for diffusion and for convection
Tri-diagonal matrix algorithm
Average solution in time
No need to solve Poisson equation
Very fast!

Concluding RemarksConcluding Remarks
The jury is out on the prospect of approximate wall modelling as a general approach
There is evidence that some offer ‘credible’ solutions and gains in economy
There is a price to pay (sometimes high) in terms of physical realism (e.g. near-wall structure)
Particular problem: loss of small-scale near-wall components
It is not clear what to do in very complex near-wall flow – separation, severe 3d straining
Particular problems when near-wall flow has a strong effect on global flow features
Hybrid RANS-LES and zonal modelling work, but much more research is required to identify applicability and limitations
