Large-Eddy Simulation of separated boundary layer transition
Transition from laminar to turbulence in separated flow occurs in a wide range of practical engineering applications. The transition process has a great influence on the flow development downstream and it is very important to have a good understanding of the flow physics involved in order to predict it accurately, and to control it when needed. The above picture shows the transition process in a separated boundary layer on a flat plate with a semi-circular leading edge.
Large-Eddy Simulation of a diffusion flame in a co-axial combustor
Turbulent combustion occurs in a wide range of practical engineering application such as in IC engines and gas turbine combustors. It is very complicated involving turbulence, mixing, kinetics etc. and has a great impact on the engine performance. It is crucial to develop a computational tool to predict it accurately. The above picture shows LES results of a diffusion flame in a co-axial combustor.
