Large Eddy Simulations of Isotropic or Stably-Stratified Turbulence

  • Conference paper
Advances in Turbulence

Abstract

A spectral formulation of a subgrid scale model is used to parameterize the smallest scales of the velocity and temperature fields of a three dimensional turbulence. This model, primarily designed for homogeneous isotropic turbulence, is extended to homogeneous stratified turbulence in order to study the initial stage of the decay of a three dimensional turbulence in a stable stratification density gradient.
