  2. Question: How can one directly use fundamental physics learnt from our research on turbulence for modeling and simulation? Conservation of energy, helicity, constant energy flux in the inertial range, scalar flux, intermittency exponents, Reynolds stress, Statistics of structures… Through constrained variation principle.. Physical space decimation theory…

  3. Decimation Theory Kraichnan 1975, Kraichnan and Chen 1989 Let us do Fourier-Transform of the Navier-Stokes Equation and denote the Fourier modes as (S < N) (Small Scale) (Large Scale) Constraints: Lead to factor (Intermittency Constraint) (Energy flux constraint: Direct-Interaction-Approximation)

  4. Large Eddy Simulation (LES) After filtering the Navier-Stokes equation, we have the equation for the filtered velocity is the sub-grid stress (SGS). One needs to model the SGS term using the resolved motion .

  5. Local Measure of Energy Flux Local energy flux Where is the stress from scales and is the stress from scales

  6. Smagorinsky Model (eddy-viscosity model): CS is a constant. Dynamic Models:

  7. Mixed Models: A combination of single models: Apply dynamic procedure, one can also get Dynamic Mixed model:

  8. Constrained Subgrid-Stress Model (C-SGS) Assumption: the model coefficients are scale-invariant in the inertialrange, or close to inertial range. The proposed model is to minimize the square error Emodof a mixed model under the constraint: It can also been done by the energy flux εαΔthrough scale αΔ.. If the system does not have a good inertial range scaling, the extended self-similarity version has been used.

  9. Energy and Helicity Flux Constraints: Consider energy and helicity dissipations, we add the following two constraints: & is determined by using the method of Lagrange multipliers: Here and

  23. DES-Mean Velocity Profile

  24. DES Buffer Layer and Transition Problem Lack of small scale fluctuations in the RANS area is the main shortcoming of hybrid RANS/LES method

  25. Possible Solution to the Transition Problem Hamba (2002, 2006): Overlap method Keating et al. (2004, 2006): synthetic turbulence in the interface

  26. Reynolds Stress Constrained Large Eddy Simulation (RSC-LES) • Solve LES equations in both inner and outer layers, the inner layer flow will have sufficient small scale fluctuations and generate a correct Reynolds Stress at the interface; • Impose the Reynolds stress constraint on the inner layer LES equations such that the inner layer flow has a consistent (or good) mean velocity profile; (constrained variation) • Coarse-Grid everywhere LES Small scare turbulence in the whole space Reynolds Stress Constrained

  27. Control of the mean velocity profile in LES by imposing the Reynolds Stress Constraint LES equations Performance of ensemble average of the LES equations leads to where

  28. Reynolds stress constrained SGS stress model is adopted for the LES of inner layer flow: Decompose the SGS model into two parts: The mean value is solved from the Reynolds stress constraint: • K-epsilon model to solve • Algebra eddy viscosity: Balaras & Benocci (1994) and Balaras et al. (1996) where (3) S-A model (best model so far for separation)

  29. For the fluctuation of SGS stress, a Smagorinsky type model is adopted: The interface to separate the inner and outer layer is located at the beginning point of log-law region, such the Reynolds stress achieves its maximum.

  43. Conclusions • As a priori, the addition of the constraints not only improves the correlation between the SGS model stress and the true (DNS) stress, but predicts the dissipation (or the fluxes) more accurately. • As a posteriori in both the forced and decaying isotropic turbulence, the constrained models show better approximations for the energy and helicity spectra and their time dependences. • Reynold-Stress Constrained LES is a simple method and improves DES, and the forcing scheme, for wall-bounded turbulent flows. • One may impose different constraints to capture the underlying physics for different flow phenomenon, such as intermittency, which is important for combustion, and magnetic helicity, which could play an important role for magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, compressibility and etc.
