TLDR
In this article, three SGS stress closure LES models are evaluated for turbulent flow over a square cylinder and it is concluded that a one-equation model for subgrid kinetic energy is the best choice.
Abstract
Three SGS stress closure LES models are evaluated for turbulent flow over a square cylinder. Emphasis is placed on solving engineering-application-type problems on affordable computer resources and within reasonable turnaround times. Results are compared with available experimental data and previously published workshop results. Numerical strategies are kept the same for all the cases. Results are also discussed keeping in view limitations of LES methodology of modelling for practical problems and current developments. It is concluded that a one-equation model for subgrid kinetic energy is the best choice.

Hybrid LES — Review and assessment

TL;DR: In this article, some of the issues involved in performing hybrid LES reported in the recent literature is briefly reviewed, as well as an alternative solu- tion suggested was to combine RANS and LES, which in general referred to as Hybrid LES.

Improvement of effectiveness of EMHD flow separation control

TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that the effectiveness of flow separation control using Electro-Magneto-Hydro-Dynamic (EMHD) method can be improved by choosing the dimensions of the actuator based on the Reynolds number and the shape of the model studied.

Large-eddy simulation of the turbulent mixing layer

TL;DR: In this paper, six subgrid models for the turbulent stress tensor are tested by conducting large-eddy simulations (LES) of the weakly compressible temporal mixing layer: the Smagorinsky, similarity, gradient, dynamic eddy-viscosity, dynamic mixed and dynamic Clark models.

The effect of turbulence on the surface pressure field of a square prism

TL;DR: In this article, the mean and fluctuating pressure field acting on a two-dimensional square cylinder in uniform and turbulent flows was measured and the addition of turbulence to the flow was shown to raise the base pressure and reduce the drag of the body.
