Summary
Large-Eddy Simulations of jets and wall-bounded flows obtained from different numerical techniques are presented. In the jet case, it is found that a sensitive parameter is the nature of the upstream perturbations, stochastic forcing yield an unphysical drop in turbulence intensity near the inflow boundary, whatever the method, resolution and subgrid-scale model used. With deterministic perturbations smooth statistics are obtained. A second investigation is concerned with the performance of two different solution schemes (a second-order scheme of AUSM type and a compact finite difference scheme), which are applied to a plane turbulent plane jet. Both methods produce similar results, disregarding whether a subgrid scale model is used or not. Finally, the recycling technique proposed by Lund, Wu and Squires (CTR Annual Research Briefs, 1996, pp. 287-295) for turbulent boundary layers at zero-pressure gradient has been proved to resist the pressure fluctuations caused by D-type roughness element, which is very promising for forthcoming simulations of wakes behind bluff bodies.
