Abstract

Background

SGS models have significant impact on the LES prediction. However, the influence of subgrid-scale (SGS) eddy-viscosity models on the predictive performance of the Production-limited Eddy Simulation (PLES) for handling various complex turbulent flows is unknown. This study underscores the importance of SGS eddy-viscosity models in shaping the performance of the PLES model.

Methods

Numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the effect of subgrid-scale (SGS) eddy-viscosity models on the performance of PLES, comparing three commonly used SGS models: Smagorinsky-Lilly (SL), Vreman (VREMAN), and Wall-Adapting Local Eddy-viscosity (WALE).

Significant Findings

In the fully developed turbulent channel flow, all models effectively address the log-layer mismatch issue. The PLES-SL model predicts the highest turbulent viscosity, leading to a larger RANS (Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes) region, fewer resolved vortex structures, and lower RMS (root-mean-square) velocity near the wall. The PLES-VREMAN and PLES-WALE models yield similar turbulent viscosities, RANS regions, velocity profiles, and RMS velocities. The PLES-SL model shows greater sensitivity to grid resolution, while the others exhibit less dependence on grid refinement. For the flow around a cylinder, the PLES-SL model predicts a smaller recirculation zone and exhibits stronger vortex street fluctuations due to its higher turbulent viscosity. The PLES-VREMAN model performs best in predicting the time-averaged physical quantities and Reynolds stress.

亚网格尺度涡粘模型对限产涡模拟的影响研究

dsgs模式对LES预测有显著影响。然而，亚网格尺度（SGS）涡流粘度模型对限产涡模拟（PLES）处理各种复杂湍流预测性能的影响尚不清楚。这一研究强调了SGS涡流黏度模型在塑造涡流黏度模型性能方面的重要性。方法通过数值模拟研究了亚网格尺度（SGS）涡流黏度模型对多目标耦合性能的影响，比较了Smagorinsky-Lilly （SL）、Vreman （Vreman）和wall - adaptive Local eddy-viscosity （WALE）三种常用的SGS模型。在充分发展的湍流河道中，所有模型都有效地解决了日志层失配问题。PLES-SL模型预测了最高的湍流粘度，导致更大的RANS （reynolds -average Navier-Stokes）区域，更少的分解涡结构和更低的RMS（均方根）速度靠近壁面。PLES-VREMAN和PLES-WALE模型产生相似的湍流粘度、RANS区域、速度分布和RMS速度。pls - sl模型对网格分辨率表现出更高的敏感性，而其他模型对网格细化的依赖性较小。对于圆柱绕流，由于其较高的湍流粘度，pls - sl模型预测了较小的再循环区，并表现出更强的涡街波动。pls - vreman模型在预测时间平均物理量和雷诺应力方面表现最好。
