Unsteady, irregular (non-periodic) motion in which transported quantities (mass, momentum, scalar species) fluctuate in time and space Identifiable swirling patterns characterize turbulent
3、 eddies Enhanced mixing (matter, momentum, energy, etc.) results Fluid properties and velocity exhibit random variations Statistical averaging results in accountable, turbulence related transport mechanisms This characteristic allows for turbulence modeling Contains a wide range of turbulent eddy si
4、zes (scales spectrum) The size/velocity of large eddies is on the order of the mean flow Large eddies derive energy from the mean flow Energy is transferred from larger eddies to smaller eddies In the smallest eddies, turbulent energy is converted to internal energy by viscous dissipation Turbulence

10、can be simulated by numerically solving the full Navier-Stokes equations Resolves the whole spectrum of scales. No modeling is required But the cost is too prohibitive! Not practical for industrial flows Large Eddy Simulation (LES) type models Solves the spatially averaged N-S equations Large eddies
11、 are directly resolved, but eddies smaller than the mesh are modeled Less expensive than DNS, but the amount of computational resources and efforts are still too large for most practical applications Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) models Solve time-averaged Navier-Stokes equations All turbul
12、ent length scales are modeled in RANS Various different models are available This is the most widely used approach for calculating industrial flows There is not yet a single, practical turbulence model that can reliably predict all turbulent flows with sufficient accuracy Turbulence 9-8 ANSYS, Inc.

14、components The Reynolds-averaged momentum equations are as follows The Reynolds stresses are additional unknowns introduced by the averaging procedure, hence they must be modeled (related to the averaged flow quantities) in order to close the system of governing equations Fluctuating component Time-
