Modelling transport and mixing by turbulence in complex flows is one of the greatest
challenges for CFD. This highly readable volume introduces the reader to a level of …

This paper examines the evolution of closing the Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes
equations by approximating the Reynolds stresses via the second-moment transport …

Abstract Large-Eddy Simulation (LES), Detached-Eddy Simulation (DES) and Scale-
Adaptive Simulation (SAS) are increasingly being used as engineering tools to predict the …

Large‐eddy simulation (LES) consists in explicitly simulating the large scales of the fluid
motion and in modeling the influence of the smallest scales. Thanks to the steady growth of …

Aerosol transmission is now well-established as a route in the spread of the SARS-CoV-2
virus. Factors influencing the transport of virus-laden particles in an elevator cabin are …

Coolant flows in the cores of current gas-cooled nuclear reactors consist of ascending
vertical flows in a large number of parallel passages. Under post-trip conditions such heated …

Abstract A three-dimensional (3D) numerical wave tank (NWT) is developed based on
OpenFOAM. The propagation and breaking of waves with a moderate wavelength that could …

The performance of four different large-eddy simulation subgrid-scale models has been
examined a posteriori for natural convection in an asymmetrically-heated vertical parallel …

The paper describes the application of different levels of turbulence closure and near-wall
treatment to the computation of a 2D downward-directed wall jet that encounters a slow …

A three-dimensional Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes computational fluid dynamics
(CFD) model is developed for simulating initial mixing in the near field of thermal discharges …
