Physical understanding and predictive modeling of high Reynolds number non-equilibrium turbulent boundary layers

Abstract

We aim to explore mechanisms associated with the change in wall turbulence structure subjectedto non-equilibrium efects (mean three dimensionality and cross-flow pressure gradients) byperforming direct and large-eddy simulation (LES) of high Reynolds number three-dimensionalboundary layers in a channel and a bent square duct. The result will then be utilized to assesswall models for LES. Lastly, an effective strategy to handle separated-flow regions in wallmodeledLES will be sought.
