Large Eddy Simulations of gaseous flames in gas turbine combustion chambers
TLDR
In this article, two types of LES in complex geometry combustors and of specific interest for aeronautical gas turbine burners are reviewed: (1) laboratory-scale combustors, without compressor or turbine, in which advanced measurements are possible and (2) combustion chambers of existing engines operated in realistic operating conditions.About:

Filtered density function simulation of a realistic swirled combustor
TL;DR: In this article, the scalar filtered mass density function (SFMDF) is employed for large eddy simulation (LES) of the PRECCINSTA burner from DLR, which involves a swirling flow configuration and provides a good model of the combustor in gas turbines.

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.

The numerical computation of turbulent flows
Brian Launder,D. B. Spalding +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a review of the applicability and applicability of numerical predictions of turbulent flow, and advocate that computational economy, range of applicability, and physical realism are best served by turbulence models in which the magnitudes of two turbulence quantities, the turbulence kinetic energy k and its dissipation rate ϵ, are calculated from transport equations solved simultaneously with those governing the mean flow behaviour.
