Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) is applied to an axisymmetric base flow at supersonic mainstream. DES is a hybrid approach to modeling turbulence that combines the best features of the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes RANS) and large-eddy simulation (LES) approaches. In the Reynolds-averaged mode, the model is currently based on either the Spalart-Allmaras (S-A) turbulence model. In the large eddy simulation mode, it is based on the Smagorinski subgrid scale model. Accurate predictions of the base flowfield and base pressure are successfully achieved by using the DES methodology with less computational cost than that of pure LES and monotone integrated large-eddy simulation (MILES) approaches. The DES accurately resolves the physics of unsteady turbulent motions, such as shear layer rollup, large-eddy motions in the downstream region, small-eddy motions inside the recirculating region. Comparison of the results shows that it is necessary to resolve approaching boundary layers and free shear-layer velocity profiles from the base edge correctly for the accurate prediction of base flows. The consideration of an empirical constant CDES for a compressible flow analysis may suggest that the optimal value of empirical constant CDES may be larger in the flows with strong compressibility than in incompressible flows.

This study investigated compound open channel flow using OpenFOAM Large Eddy Simulation (LES). Large eddy simulations were carried out by solving the filtered continuity and momentum equations numerically. One equation LES and non-uniform grid were applied to capture the anisotropic turbulence and secondary flow near the wall. The results of large eddy simulations of turbulent flow in a compound open channel with deep and shallow flood plain depths are presented. These LESs are validated with experimental data, resulting in a good agreement between measured and calculated data. The role of anisotropic turbulence in generating secondary currents is illustrated.

In order to investigate effects of grid resolution on large-eddy simulation of flow over a heavy vehicle, large-eddy simulations over the vehicle with coarse grid and fine grid are conducted. In addition, comparison of drag coefficients with the experimental data obtained by a wind tunnel experiment is conducted. Both of the drag coefficients of coarse grid and fine grid large-eddy simulation show good agreement with the experimental data. Flow fields obtained by the coarse and the fine grid large-eddy simulation are compared in the vehicle frontal-face region, the vehicle rear wheel region, and the vehicle base region. Coarse grid large-eddy simulation shows good agreement with the fine grid large-eddy simulation in the vehicle front face region and the vehicle rear wheel region, since the flow over the present vehicle is dominated by flow separation which is geometrically pre-determined, not by the skin friction which is known to be sensitive to grid resolution.

Production and dissipation of turbulent structure in a swirl stabilized combustor was investigated using three-dimensional Large Eddy Simulation analysis. The combustor of concern is the LM6000, lean premixed dry low-NOx annular combustor, developed by GEAE. Inlet condition was based on experimental data. Strong vortex breakdown in main stream, vortex ring proceeding downstream, and the turbulent structure periodically oscillating have been observed. Reasonable agreement was obtained by comparison of the results with experiments and previous LES studies.

The spectral eddy viscosity model is investigated through the large eddy simulation of the decaying and forced isotropic turbulence. It is shown that the widely accepted 'plateau and cusp' model overpredicts resolved kinetic energy due to the amplification of energy at intermediate wavenumbers. Whereas, the simple plateau model reproduces a correct energy spectrum. This result overshadows a priori tests based on the filtered DNS or experimental data. An alternative method for the validation of subgrid-scale model is discussed.

Unsteady three-dimensional flowfield generated by transverse fuel injection into a supersonic mainstream is simulated with a DES turbulence model. Comparisons are made with experimental results in terms of the temporal eddy position and eddy formation frequency. The vorticity field around the jet exit is also analyzed to understand the formation mechanism of the large eddy structures. Results indicate that the DES model correctly predicts the convection characteristics of the large scale eddies. However, it is also observed that the numerical results slightly over-predict the eddy formation frequency. The large eddy structures are generated as the counter-rotating vortices are detached alternately in the upstream recirculation region.

A Large Eddy Simulation (LES), adopting the Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC) 1-step model, was successfully performed for backdraft phenomena. The activation energy of the finite chemistry reaction in the EDC 1-step model was adjusted to simulate the backdraft. The prediction of the EDC 1-step model was similar to that of the Mixing-Controlled Fast Chemistry (MCFC) model, except when the backdraft occurred. The EDC 1-step model could be used to simulate the experimental peak pressure, but not the first peak pressure of the backdraft.

Transport of a scalar quantity, such as chemical concentration or temperature, is important in many engineering applications and environmental flows. Here we report on results obtained from the large eddy simulations of flow and concentration fields inside the tank performed using a spectral multi-domain technique. The computations were driven by specifying the impeller-induced flow at the blade tip radius (Yoon et al. $^{(1)}$). This study focused on the concentration development at different molecular diffusivities in a stirred tank operated under turbulent conditions. The main objective of the work presented here is to study the large-scale mixing structure at different molecular diffusivities in a stirred tank by using the large eddy simulation. The time sequence of concentration and flow fields shows the flow dependency of the concentration development. The presence of spatial inhomogenieties is detailed by observing the time variation of local concentration at different positions.

The metallurgical transformation ratios of metals have been evaluated by the eddy current method. Eddy current probes have been designed and applied to various standard samples. The equivalent impedance estimated from the eddy current measurement is closely related to the variation of transformation ratios in metals. It has been found that the variation of the impedance is relatively large in the samples where the transformation ratios of the samples are small. Both reactance and resistance increase when the transformation ratio is large. Sensitivities of eddy current test is increased with increasing frequencies and by inserting ferrite core the solenoid eddy probe. Our results have shown the implementation of eddy current measurement to the one-line nondestructive testing of metals.
