Abstract

This paper describes the current state of the art in large eddy simulation (LES) of engineering flows. As LES is used in a wide range of applications (aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, combustion, etc.) an attempt is made here to provide a compact but still comprehensive description of the method, and to give an overview of how LES is employed to study engineering flows. Both theoretical aspects of LES and examples of LES predictions in the fields of aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, and combustion are discussed. Comparisons with experimental data, or for simpler flows with direct numerical simulation data, are presented to demonstrate both the strengths and the weaknesses of LES. In general, LES provides a very powerful computational tool for fluid mechanics that can and should be used together with other simpler simulation models and experiments to advance the understanding of fluid flow and to aid the design of engineering systems. With present computational capabilities it is already now possible to gain fundamentally new insight into, e.g., vehicle aerodynamics, ship hydrodynamics, and combustion in a wide range of systems from gas turbines to White Dwarf stars.
