TLDR
In this paper, the subgrid-scale closure method developed by Germano et al. is modified by use of a least squares technique to minimize the difference between the closure assumption and the resolved stresses.
Abstract
The subgrid‐scale closure method developed by Germano et al. is modified by use of a least squares technique to minimize the difference between the closure assumption and the resolved stresses. This modification removes a source of singularity and is believed to improve the method’s applicability.

LES-CMC of a dilute acetone spray flame

TL;DR: In this article, a combined Large-Eddy-Simulation (LES) and Conditional Moment Closure (CMC) method has been applied to model spray combustion and additional source terms in the CMC transport equation that originate from the evaporation of the fuel have been modelled and their influence on flame structure and global quantities such as temporally averaged temperature profiles has been analysed.

On the interaction between dynamic model dissipation and numerical dissipation due to streamline upwind/Petrov–Galerkin stabilization

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the roles of physical and numerical subgrid-scale modeling, and propose a modification to the dynamic Smagorinsky model as a way to discount the numerical method's algorithmic dissipation from the total subgridscale dissipation.

Numerical simulations of spatially developing, accelerating boundary layers

TL;DR: In this paper, the results of direct and large-eddy simulations of spatially developing boundary layers subjected to favorable pressure gradient, strong enough to cause reversion of the flow towards a quasi-laminar state, are presented.

General circulation experiments with the primitive equations

TL;DR: In this article, an extended period numerical integration of a baroclinic primitive equation model has been made for the simulation and the study of the dynamics of the atmosphere's general circulation, and the solution corresponding to external gravitational propagation is filtered by requiring the vertically integrated divergence to vanish identically.

A dynamic subgrid‐scale eddy viscosity model

TL;DR: In this article, a new eddy viscosity model is presented which alleviates many of the drawbacks of the existing subgrid-scale stress models, such as the inability to represent correctly with a single universal constant different turbulent fields in rotating or sheared flows, near solid walls, or in transitional regimes.

A dynamic subgrid‐scale model for compressible turbulence and scalar transport

TL;DR: Germano et al. as discussed by the authors generalized the dynamic subgrid-scale (SGS) model for the large eddy simulation (LES) of compressible flows and transport of a scalar.

On the application of the eddy viscosity concept in the Inertial sub-range of turbulence

K. Lilly
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that an eddy diffusion hypothesis for use in numerical solutions of turbulent flow problems is consistent with the existence of an inertial subrange at the smallest resolvable scale of the numerical model.
