Computational Fluid Dynamics II

The course teaches the essential aspects for modeling and simulation of turbulent flows in university and industrial research as well as in technical applications.

Recommended

for 6th semester

Content

  • Statistical turbulence models (k-epsilon, k-omega, SA, Reynolds stress models).
  • Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) and hybrid RANS-LES methods (e.g. Detached Eddy Simulation method, DES).
  • Semi-empirical theory (logarithmic wall law, Kolmogorov's k-5/3 law for the turbulent energy spectrum).
  • Prediction of laminar-turbulent transition.
  • Basics of CFD RANS codes
  • Use of an industrial flow solver (handling of UNIX/LINUX, programming language C, numerical mathematics)
