Direct numerical simulation: a tool in turbulence research

P Moin, K Mahesh - Annual review of fluid mechanics, 1998 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract We review the direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent flows. We stress that
DNS is a research tool, and not a brute-force solution to the Navier-Stokes equations for …

On the Görtler instability of boundary layers

JM Floryan - Progress in Aerospace Sciences, 1991 - Elsevier
Görtler instability occurs due to the action of centrifugal forces in boundary layers over
curved surfaces, where it most commonly results in the generation of steady streamwise …

[LIVRE][B] Scientific Computation

P Joly, A Quarteroni, J Rappaz - 2005 - Springer
Two decades ago when we wrote Spectral Methods in Fluid Dynamics (1988), the subject
was still fairly novel. Motivated by the many favorable comments we have received and the …

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent flow in a square duct

A Huser, S Biringen - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1993 - cambridge.org
A direct numerical simulation of a fully developed, low-Reynolds-number turbulent flow in a
square duct is presented. The numerical scheme employs a time-splitting method to …

Characteristic-eddy decomposition of turbulence in a channel

P Moin, RD Moser - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 1989 - cambridge.org
The proper orthogonal decomposition technique (Lumley's decomposition) is applied to the
turbulent flow in a channel, to extract coherent structures by decomposing the velocity field …

Direct simulations of low-Reynolds-number turbulent flow in a rotating channel

R Kristoffersen, HI Andersson - Journal of fluid mechanics, 1993 - cambridge.org
Direct numerical simulations of fully developed pressure-driven turbulent flow in a rotating
channel have been performed. The unsteady Navier–Stokes equations were written for flow …

Flow in a centrifugal pump impeller at design and off-design conditions—part II: large eddy simulations

RK Byskov, CB Jacobsen… - J. Fluids Eng., 2003 - asmedigitalcollection.asme.org
The flow field in a shrouded six-bladed centrifugal pump impeller has been investigated
using large eddy simulation (LES). The effect of the subgrid scales has been modeled …

A model for the entrainment and transport of sediment grains of mixed sizes, shapes, and densities

JS Bridge, SJ Bennett - Water Resources Research, 1992 - Wiley Online Library
A model for the entrainment and bed load transport of sediment grains of different sizes,
shapes and densities by a unidirectional turbulent flow is developed in terms of (1) sediment …

Direct numerical simulation of turbulent Taylor–Couette flow

S Dong - Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 2007 - cambridge.org
We investigate the dynamical and statistical features of turbulent Taylor–Couette flow (for a
radius ratio 0.5) through three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS) at Reynolds …

Turbulent flow around a wall-mounted cube: A direct numerical simulation

A Yakhot, H Liu, N Nikitin - International journal of heat and fluid flow, 2006 - Elsevier
An immersed-boundary method was employed to perform a direct numerical simulation
(DNS) of flow around a wall-mounted cube in a fully developed turbulent channel for a …
