Lectures on computational fluid dynamics Preface
Preface
The present book is used for lecture courses Computational heat and mass
transfer, Mathematical models of turbulence and Design of special cloth given
by the authors at the University of Rostock, Germany and Don State Tech-
nical University, Russia. Each of lecture courses contains about 14 lectures.
The lecture course Compuational heat and mass transfer was written pro-
ceeding from the idea to present the complex material as easy as possible.
We considered derivation of numerical methods, particularly of the finite vol-
ume method, in details up to final expressions which can be programmed.
Turbulence is a big and a very complicated topic which is difficult to cover
within 14 lectures. We selected the material combining the main physi-
cal concepts of the turbulence with basic mathematical models necessary to
solve practical engineering problems. The course Design of special cloth uses
the material of two parts of this book partially. The material for the third
part was gathered from research projects done by the authors of this book
within some industrial projects and research works supported by different
foundations. We express our gratitude to Andreas Gross, Gunnar Jacobi
and Stefan Knochenhauer who carried out CFD calculations for the third
part of this book.

relations for the gravitational forces:

local acceleration convective acceleration
The local acceleration is due to the23change of the velocity in time. The
convective acceleration is due to particle motion in a nonuniform velocity
field. The Navier-Stokes Equation in tensor form is:
@ui @ui 1 @p @ @
C uj D Fi C ui (1.21)
@t @xj @xi @xj @xj
Using the continuity equation (1.3) the convective term can be written in the
conservative form:
@ui @
uj D ui uj (1.22)
@xj @xj
Finally, the Navier Stokes in the tensor form is:
@ui @ 1 @p @ @
C .ui uj / D Fi C ui (1.23)
@t @xj @xi @xj @xj
The Navier Stokes equation together with the continuity equation (1.3) is
the closed system of partial differential equations. Four unknowns velocity
components ux ; uy ; uz and pressure p are found from four equations. The
equation due to presence of the term @x@j .ui uj / is nonlinear.
The boundary conditions are enforced for velocity components and pressure
at the boundary of the computational domain. The no slip condition ux D
uy D uz D 0 is enforced at the solid body boundary. The boundary condition
for the pressure at the body surface can directly be derived from the Navier
Stokes equation. For instance, if y D 0 corresponds to the wall, the Navier
Stokes Equation takes the form at the boundary:
@p @ 2 ux

Very often the last term in the last formulae is neglected because second
spatial derivatives of the velocity are not known at the wall boundary.
Till now, the existence of the solution of Navier Stokes has been not proven by
mathematicians. Also, it is not clear whether the solution is smooth or allows

1.2 Heat conduction equation
Let q.x; t / be the heat flux vector, U is the volume of fluid or solid body, S is
its surface and n is the unit normal vector to S. Flux of the inner energy
into the volume U at any point x 2 U is
q.x; t/ n.x/ (1.24)
Integrating (1.24) over the surface S we obtain:

and using the Gauss theorem
Z Z
q.x; t/ n.x/dS D r q.x; t/d U (1.26)

From
R the other side the change of the inner energy in the volume U is equal
to U cp @t@ T .x; t/d U , where T is the temperature, cp is the specific heat
capacity and is the density. Equating this change to (1.26) we get:

Here f is the heat sources within the volume U .
Fourier has proposed the following relation between the local heat flux and
temperature difference, known as the Fourier law:
q.x; t/ D rT .x; t/ (1.28)
where is the heat conduction coefficient.

we will consider different grids and principles of their generation. In this
chapter we consider uniform two dimensional grids .xi ; yj / with equal spacing
in both x and y directions.

2.3 Time derivatives. Explicit versus implicit
Let the unsteady partial differential equation is written in the form:
@g
D G.g; t/ (2.15)
@t
The solution is known at the time instant n. The task is to find the solution
at n C 1 time instant. Using forward difference scheme we get:
g nC1 D g n C G.g; t/t (2.16)
Taking the r.h.s. of (2.15) from the n th time slice we obtain:
g nC1 D g n C G.g n ; t/t (2.17)
The scheme (2.17) is the so called explicit scheme (simple Euler approach).
Taking the r.h.s. of (2.15) from the n C 1 th time slice we obtain:
g nC1 D g n C G.g nC1 ; t/t (2.18)
The scheme (2.18) is the implicit scheme. The r.h.s. side of (2.18) depends on
the solution g nC1 . With the other words, the solution at the time slice n C 1,
g nC1 can not be expressed explicitly through the solutions known the from
previous time slices 1; 2; ::; n for nonlinear dependence G.g; t/.
Mix between explicit and implicit schemes is called the Crank-Nicolson Scheme:

The condition (3.14) is the Courant Friedrich Levy criterion of the stability

4.2 Mixed schemes
The high accuracy of the CDS schemes is their advantage. The disadvantage
of CDS schemes is their instability resulting in oscillating solutions. On the
contrary, the upwind difference schemes UDS possess a low accuracy and high
stability. The idea to use the combination of CDS and UDS to strengthen
their advantages and diminish their disadvantages. Let us consider a simple
transport equation for the quantity ':

terms with the limiter (4.14).

The grids are subdivided into collocated and staggered ones. On collo-
cated grids the unknown quantities are stored at centres of cells (points P in
Fig. 4.1). The equations are also satisfied at cell centres. For the simplicity,
we considered the case x and y are constant in the whole computational
domain. Use of collocated grids meets the problem of decoupling between
the velocity and pressure fields. Let us consider the Poisson equation (4.6)

The value of gamma is the maximum fraction of a cells which information can
travel in one time step, multiplied by 1:2, and capped by 1. The factor of 1:2
is taken from the experience that often times tending a bit more towards
upwinding can be advantageous for accuracy [5].
D 0 corresponds to the central difference scheme (CDS) whereas D 1
results in the upwind difference scheme (UDS).

Brain power By 2020, wind could provide one-tenth of our planet’s
electricity needs. Already today, SKF’s innovative know-
how is crucial to running a large proportion of the
world’s wind turbines.
Up to 25 % of the generating costs relate to mainte-
nance. These can be reduced dramatically thanks to our
systems for on-line condition monitoring and automatic
lubrication. We help make it more economical to create
cleaner, cheaper energy out of thin air.
By sharing our experience, expertise, and creativity,
industries can boost performance beyond expectations.
Therefore we need the best employees who can
meet this challenge!

5.2 Splitting according to physical processes.
Fractional step methods
Within the fractional step method the original equation is split according
to physical processes. Splitting according to physical processes is used for
unsteady problems. The general idea is illustrated for the transport equation:
@u
D C u C Du C P (5.10)
@t
Here
C is the convection operator,
D is the diffusion operator,
50
P is the pressure source operator.
Simple explicit Euler method can be written as
unC1 D un C .C u C Du C P /t (5.11)
The overall numerical solution is considered as the consequence of numerical
solutions of the following partial problems:
u D un C .C un /t (*) Convection step
u D u C .Du /t (**) Diffusion step (5.12)
unC1 D u C .P /t (***) Pressure step
solving sequentially. The sense of this splitting is that the numerical solution
of partial problems (*)-(***) is simpler and more stable than that of the
whole problem. The disadvantage of this procedure is that it is applicable to
only unsteady problem formulation. Another disadvantage is the low order
of accuracy with respect to time derivative approximation. The order of time
derivative approximations can be derived using the sample with two physical
processes described by operators L1 and L2 :

Very often the diffusion step is treated implicitly. This is done to diminish

The Poisson equation for pressure is derived in the same manner as above
for finite difference method. For that the equations (6.11) is differentiated
on x, whereas the equation (6.12) is differentiated on y. Then both results
are summed under assumptions that both unC1 ij and unij are divergence free:

This equation is coupled with equations (6.11) and (6.12). The explicit
scheme has advantage that the solution at the time instant n C 1 is ex-
plicitly expressed through the solution at time instant n. The solution of
linear algebraic equations which is the most laborious numerical procedure
is necessary only for the solution of the Poisson equation. The momentum
equations (6.11) and (6.12) are solved explicitly. Velocities unC1 nC1
xij and uyij
are computed then from simple algebraic formula (6.11) and (6.12). The big
disadvantage of the explicit method is the limitation forced by the Courant
Friedrich Levy criterion. The time step t should be very small to secure the
numerical stability. This disadvantage can be overcome within the implicit
schemes.

The resulting Poisson equation can not be solved because both the r.h.s.
(velocities) and the l.h.s (pressure) depend on n C 1. The term on r.h.s.
cannot be computed until the computation of velocity field at time n C 1
is completed and vice versa. Other problem is that the equations (6.13)
and (6.14) are non linear.

iterative procedure. Let m be an iteration number. The nonlinear term is
represented in form:

6.6 Pressure correction
63 method
The velocity field satisfying the equation (6.20) is the solution of the lin-
earized Navier Stokes equation. It doesn’t fulfill the continuity equation.
The iterative solution satisfying the whole system of equations is computed
using the pressure correction method.
The iterative scheme consists of following steps. First, the intermediate so-
lution is calculated with pressure taken from the previous iteration:
u D Au C Bp .m 1/ C C (6.21)
The velocity and pressure corrections
u.m/ D u C u0 ; p .m/ D p .m 1/ C p 0 (6.22)
are computed within next steps. Substitution of (6.22) into (6.20) gives
.u C u0 / D A.u C u0 / C B.p .m 1/ C p 0 / C C (6.23)
Since u satisfies the equation (6.21) the equation for the velocity correction
reads

In the SIMPLE algorithm we neglected 69 the term rAu0 (see 6.25). In PISO
69
algorithm this term is taken into account. Actually the term rAu0 can not
be calculated before the velocity correction is computed. Therefore, the term
is taken into account in an iterative way.
7.2.1 First iteration
The term Au0 is neglected, i.e. Au0 D 0. The pressure correction is found

Corrected velocities and pressure are

Using formula derived above
rBp 0 D ru ; u0 D Bp 0 ; u00 D Au0 C Bp 00 ; rBp 00 D rAu0
it is easy to prove that the velocity u.m/ satisfies the continuity equation.
Now we prove the equation u.m/ D Au.m/ C Bp .m/ C C :
u C u0 C u00 D A.u C u0 C u00 / C B.p .m 1/ C p 0 C p 00 / C C (7.11)
Since 70
u D Au C Bp .m 1/

the equation (7.11) is not satisfied. The residual is Au00 . The residual can be
reduced within next iterations. However, usually, PISO algorithm uses only
two iterations.

8.2 Overset or Chimera grids
For complicated objects one uses overset or Chimera grids. The idea of
chimera or overset grids is to generate the grids separately around each geo-
metrical entity in the computational domain. After that the grids are com-
bined together in such a way that they overlap each other where they meet.
The crucial operation is an accurate transfer of quantities between the dif-
ferent grids at the overlapping region. The most important advantage of the
overset or Chimera grid is the possibility to generate high quality structured
particular grids separately for different body elements completely indepen-
dent of each other, without having to take care of the interface between
grids.
8.3 Morphing grids
Very efficient way of CFD body simulation is the use of moving or morphing
grids [6]. The idea is the computational grid is moved in accordance with the
displacement of the body by using an analytical weighted regridding which
is a type of extrapolation of rigid transformation. The possible problem of
morphing grid is poor quality caused by its motion. Consequently if the
mesh surrounding the body is allowed to deform the elements around the
body deform. This can quickly lead to poor quality elements if care is not
taken. An alternative method is to replicate the motion of the body with the
fluid domain split into an inner and outer region. The outer domain remains
fixed in space while the inner domain containing the body moves laterally to
replicate the motion. The mesh in the inner sub domain remains locked in
position relative to the lateral motion of the body. This prevents deformation
of the detailed mesh around the body. 76 The outer mesh is deformed due to
the motion of the inner region.
If moving grids are used the Navier Stokes should be transformed to take the
velocity of grid faces UEg into account,

The consequence of the condition (9.9) is:
All vortex lines, defined as the lines which are tangential to the vorticity

The velocities induced by two dimensional and three dimensional vortex
structures are shown in Fig. 9.4. An important fact is the appearance of
self induced velocities on curvilinear three dimensional vortex structures.
They are responsible for leapfrog vortex ring motion (http://www.lemos.uni-

9.3.1 Laminar - turbulent transition in pipe. Experi-
ment of Reynolds
Quantitative study of turbulence was started by Osborne Reynolds (1842-
1912) who performed in 1883 very famous experiment shown in Fig. 9.10.
The water flows from the vessel A to the pipe B. The ink injected into the
pipe B with the local flow velocity is not mixed in transversal direction and
keeps its identity if the flow velocity is small (Fig. 9.10, right). The flow
under such a condition is laminar. As soon as the flow velocity increases due
to water level raise in the vessel A, the ink jet loses the stability and is mixed
with surrounding water (Fig. 9.10, right). The flow becomes turbulent. Ink
jet development at different flow velocities in the circular pipe is shown in
Fig. 9.11.
The great merit of Reynolds lies in the fact, that he in contrast to his pre-
decessors quantified the laminar turbulent transition. He showed that the
transition in pipes occurs if the Reynolds number Re D Ub D= exceeds the
threshold around 2400. Here Ub is the bulk velocity in pipe determined as
the ratio of the flow rate to the pipe cross section, i.e. Ub D Q=.D 2 =4/, D is
the pipe diameter and is the kinematic viscosity coefficient ( 10 6 m2 s 1
for water and 10 6 m2 s 1 for air). Later, it was shown that the transition
strongly depends on the perturbations presented in the flow. The experimen-
tal setup of Reynolds has been preserved at the University of Manchester in

UK. The experiments done nowadays shown that the laminar- turbulent tran-
sition Reynolds number is less than that documented originally by Reynolds.
The reason is, presumably, the building vibration and noise caused by traffic
which was not in time of Reynolds. If the perturbations are eliminated the
transition can be delayed up to Re 40000:::50000.

9.3.2 Laminar - turbulent transition and turbulence in
jets
The jet flows experiences also laminar turbulent transition shown in Fig. 9.12.
Obviously, the flow can be fully or only partially turbulent. Close to the noz-
zle the flow is laminar. The instability is developed downstream. The shear
flow at the jet boundary is the area of rapid velocity change from the jet
velocity to zero outside of the jet. The shear flow experiences the so called
Kelvin Helmholtz instability (Fig. 9.13) resulting in formation of concen-
trated vortices which are approximately circular. It happens close to jet
nozzle at x=D < 1 (see Fig. 9.14), where x is the distance from the nozzle
and D is the nozzle diameter.
The Kelvin Helmholtz vortices experience then the pairing (see Fig. 9.14).
One vortex overtakes the neighbor vortex creating a pair. This process
has an inviscid convective nature and can be explained thinking back to
the famous leapfrog motion of two vortex rings. In the inviscid flow the
leapfrog motion is running as long as the convective instability destroys
the vortices. One vortex runs the next down, its radius decreases whereas
the speed increases. The radius of the next vortex increases, the speed
decreases. The first ring moves through the second one. The process is
then repeated. The movie illustrating this process can be downloaded from
http://www.lemos.uni-rostock.de/en/gallery/.
The paired vortices experience the azimuthal instability and takes the crude
ring form. Later they are destroyed downstream in the region 1 < x=D < 6.
In far field at large x=D the vortex structures look like a tree with branches
oriented against the main flow direction (see Fig. 9.15).

9.3.3 Laminar - turbulent transition in wall bounded
flows
The boundary layer on a plate is the thin layer of rapid change of the velocity
from zero to 99:5% of the incident flow. A possible scenario of the laminar
turbulent transition in the boundary layer on a flat plate is shown in Fig. 9.19
First, the transversal vortices are generated in the boundary layer due to
the so called Tollmien- Schlichting instability [12]. They experience the sec-
ondary instability and form downstream the lambda structures. The latter
interact each with other and experience the tertiary instability. They loss
original regular form and become stochastic. An important feature of the
turbulent boundary layer is the presence of streaks (strips) of the low ve-
locity fluid regions (see Fig. 9.20). They arise due to induction of lambda

9.3.4 Distribution of the averaged velocity in the tur-
bulent boundary layer
A remarkable feature of the turbulent boundary flow is the presence of three
typical velocity distribution regions. The instantaneous velocity distributions
can be quite different (see Fig. 9.24). However, the averaged velocity has
typical distribution close to the wall regardless of the flow type.

estimated by Taylor. Let us consider the parabola fitted to the autocorre-

at a certain point. The coordinate of this point is the scale introduced by
Taylor and called as the Taylor microscale. The Taylor microscale can be
calculated through the second derivative

The new function fO.k;E t/ is then known as the Fourier transform and/or
the frequency spectrum of the function f . The Fourier transform is also a
reversible operation:

In reality, the most of the turbulence parameters are not Gaussian. The
deviations from the Gaussian turbulence is characterized by the kurtosis

is three for the Gaussian turbulence. Big values of the kurtosis means that
the p.d.f. distribution of the structure function S1 .l/ D hu2l u1l i is very
flat. The kurtosis is also often called as flatness. If kurtosis for small l 0
is big, it means that the field of the stochastic field is very intermittent. Big
differences are possible even if the separation between two points l is small.
The p.d.f. function has long tails in this case. A sample of kurtosis for the

Based on the dimension analysis, Prandtl and Kolmogorov proposed the
estimation of the integral length of the turbulent flow

L (11.4)
"
The formula (11.4) is valid for very high Reynolds numbers for the turbulence
being in the equilibrium, i.e. the production of the turbulence is compensated
by its dissipation, i.e. P D ".
11.3 Kolmogorov hypotheses
The basis of the Kolmogorov theory are three hypotheses, whichpare supposed
p
to be valid for high Reynolds numbers Re t D vL
, where v D TKE D k
is the characteristic fluctuation velocity.
The Kolmogorov hypothesis of local isotropy reads:
At sufficiently high Reynolds number Re t , the small-scale turbulent motions
(l lE I ) are statistically isotropic
Here lE I is the lengthscale as the demarcation between the anisotropic large
eddies and the isotropic small eddies. Kolmogorov argued that all informa-
tion about the geometry of the large eddies - determined by the mean flow
field and boundary conditions - is also lost. Directional information at small
scales is lost. With the other words, the direction of the vorticity vector !
of small turbulent vortices is uniformly distributed over the sphere. As a
consequence, the statistics of the small-scale motions are in a sense universal
- similar in every high-Reynolds-number turbulent flow (see [14]).
The Kolmogorov first similarity hypothesis reads:
In every turbulent flow at sufficiently high Reynolds number Re t , the statistics
of the small-scale motions (l < lE I ) have a universal form that is uniquely
determined by and ".
For this range of scales we can introduce characteristic size , characteristic
velocity u and characteristic time which depend only on two parameters

Very remarkable is the first formula defining the ratio between the smallest
and largest vortices in the flow. If L is, say one meter, and the fluctua-
tion 1m=s, the turbulent Reynolds number in water is Re t D 106 . The
Kolmogorov scale is in this case 32000 as less as the flow macroscale L. Es-
timations of the Kolmogorov scale in the jet mixer with nozzle diameter of
d D 1cm and closing pipe of D D 5cm diameter is shown in Fig. 11.4.

In every turbulent flow at sufficiently high Reynolds number, the statistics of
the motions of scale l in the range L l have a universal form that is

This range is called as the inertial subrange. Since the vortices of this range
are much larger than Kolmogorov vortices, we can assume that their Reynolds
numbers lul = are large and their motion is little affected by the viscosity.

11.4 Three different scale ranges of turbulent
flow
Three different ranges can be distinguished in the spectrum of scales in the
full developed turbulence at high Reynolds numbers Re t (Fig.11.5):
Energy containing range at l > lE I (according to Pope [14], lE I 16 L).
Within this range the kinetic energy of turbulence is generated and big
turbulent eddies are created.
Inertial subrange at lDI < l < lE I (according to Pope [14], lDI 60).
Within this subrange the energy is transferred along the scales towards
dissipative vortices without any significant loss, i.e. " 0. The energy
density obeys the Kolmogorov law (11.10).
Dissipation range l < lDI . The dissipation of the energy of big vortices
occurs within the dissipation range.
The inertial subrange and dissipation range belong to the universal equilib-
120
rium range. Three corresponding ranges can be distinguished in the distribu-
tion of the energy density over the wave numbers k Fig. 11.6. The presence
of the inertial and dissipation subranges was confirmed in numerous exper-
imental measurements performed after development of the K41 theory (see
Fig. 11.7, 11.8).

11.5 Classification of methods for calculation

The energy spectrum Fig. 11.6 is used to classify three main methods of tur-
bulent flows modelling (Fig. 11.9). The most general strategy is the Direct
Numerical Simulation (DNS). Within the DNS the whole spectrum of tur-
bulent structures is modelled starting from the biggest vortices of the energy
containing range till the smallest dissipative Kolmogorov vortices. The Large
Eddy Simulation (LES) models the energy containing vortices and a fraction
of vortices corresponding to the inertial subrange. The effect of remain-
ing vortices is considered using different approximation models. Since small
vortices are universal, the models are also supposed to be universal. The
Reynolds averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) models are dealing with the large
vortices corresponding to the energy containing range. The effect of other
vortices is taken by different semi- empiric models which are not universal.
11.6 Limitation of K-41. Kolmogorov theory
K-62
The strongest and simultaneously the most questionable assumption of the
Kolmogorov-41 is: Dissipation rate is an universal constant for each turbulent
flow. Already in 1942, during a scientific seminar the Nobel price laureate

Fig. 11.11 shows that the predictions of Kolmogorov and Obukhov deviate
from measurement data. The reason of the discrepancy is the physical phe-
nomenon called the intermittency. The intermittency is caused by the pres-
ence of laminar spots in every turbulent
124 flows even at very high Reynolds
numbers.
Figure 11.11: Power of the structure function. Experiments versus prediction
of Kolmogorov and Obukhov. [48].
After the deviation between the K-41 and measurement was documented,
Kolmogorov tried to improve his theory. New Kolmogorov theory called as
K-62 was published in 1962.
New theory is based on two following assumptions:
Assumption 1:
Sq .l/ D< ılq > < "q=3
l > l q=3 ;
q (11.13)
q D C q=3 < "ql > l q

Unfortunately, various experiments showed later that the second assumption
is proved to be wrong.

Laminar stress appears due to viscosity effects whereas the Reynolds stress
is caused by flow fluctuations. Now the system of four fluid equations (three
URANS+ continuity) has ten unknowns: three averaged velocity compo-
nents uN i , averaged pressure pN and six Reynolds stresses. The system of
fluid dynamics is not closed. Additional relations are necessary to express
the Reynolds stresses through the velocities and pressure. This problem of
determination of Reynolds stresses is called as the closure problem of the
turbulence. A huge amounts of closure models was developed within the
framework of URANS methodology.131As said above the URANS methods
models the biggest vortices of the flow. The resting scales, which are filtered
by the Reynolds avergaing out, are big enough and not universal. This is
the reason why the URANS models are not universal. Most of them are of
semi empirical character. They are based on submodels with few constants
selected for simple canonical flows. Non universality of closure models is the
biggest weakness of URANS turbulence modelling.
The majority of URANS models used in engineering are based on the Boussi-
nesq hypothesis which is the formal extension of the Newton hypothesis to
turbulent flows. Boussinesq proposed
to express the Reynolds stress through

The URANS closure models are subdivided into algebraic and differential
ones. The most prominent model amount the algebraic models is the Prandtl
model described above. The disadvantages of the algebraic models are:
132
they are good only for the simplest flow,
not suitable for 3D flows,
not suitable for separation flows,
turbulent viscosity depends on averaged values of velocities,
do not consider the flow history.
These disadvantages can be overcome using differential models which are
subdividided into one, two and multi equation models. One and two equa-
tion models are usually isotropic based on the Boussinesq approach (12.20).
Among the one equation models the most modern and efficient is the model
of Spalart Allmares (SA model) written for the modified kinematic turbulent
viscosity . The equation for reads

functions
Basic relations of k " model werep derived under assumption that the local
turbulent Reynolds number Re t D kL= is very high. This is not the case
in the wall flow. Due to damping effect of the wall, the velocity pulsations
and the turbulent kinetic energy are small. Application of the k " model
is not valid. An efficient solution of this problem was proposed by Spalding
who developed the method of wall functions. The wall function is an ana-
lytical representation of the solution close to the wall which is matched with
the numerical solution far from the wall. Below we derive basic relations of
the wall function method following to the textbook [15].

the effect of small fine vortices on large scale motion directly resolved on the

15.3 Smagorinsky model
Note that the fine scale vortices are not resolved. They filtered out by the
filtering operation. The effect of these vortices is taken by the term ijS GS
into account. Since the small vortices are not modeled, the subgrid stress are
calculated using phenomenological models. The most recent phenomenolog-
ical model was proposed by Smagorinsky in 1963. The Smagorinsky model
is just the extension of the Boussinesq approach

Table 15.2: Advantages and disadvantages of the Smagorinsky model
We finish this section with a very important comment:
the LES models are consistent when the resolution increases, i.e. ! 0.
Indeed, if the resolution is increased, ! 0, the SGS stresses disappear.
The LES equation is passed to the original Navier Stokes equations. The
LES simulation becomes the DNS simulation if ! 0. On the contrary, the
URANS simulation is not consistent when ! 0. The Reynolds stresses
don’t disappear if the resolution is increased ! 0. The turbulence is then
twice resolved.

15.4 Model of Germano ( Dynamic Smagorin-
sky Model)
The classical model of Smagorinsky with the parameter CS being constant
for the whole computational domain is proved to be very diffusive. Germano
proposed to calculate the Smagorinsky constant CS being variable both in
space and in time, i.e. CS D CS .x; t/. The constant is determined using the
dynamic procedure which is then referred to as the Dynamic Smagorinsky
Model (DSM). 154
According to the definition the subgrid stress is
e
ijS GS D ui uj uQ i uQj (15.4)
Germano introduces the double filtering or the test filtering designated as
OQ Here the tilde symbol means the first filtering with filter width
u D u.
whereas the hat symbol stands for the second filtering with filter width ∼ 2 .
The symbol means the resulting double filtering. Using the definition (15.4)
we can write

Subtracting (15.6) from (15.5) yields
b
Tijt est OijS GS D uQ i uQj uOQ i uOQj (15.7)
We suppose that the double filter width is small. Therefore the Smagorinsky
model is valid for both stresses ijS GS and Tijt est :

The system (15.11) is overdefined (six equations for one unknown coefficient

Use of (15.14) is problematic since the denumerator Mij SQij can become zero.
To overcome this difficulty Lilly proposed to determine the constant from the
condition of the minimum residual of the equation (15.11):

It follows directly from (15.14):

since the second derivative @2 Q=@C 2 is positive at this point

15.5 Scale similarity models
Figure 15.2: Illustrations for derivation of the scale similarity model.
Despite the fact that diffusion of the classic Smagorinsky model was sub-
stantially reduced by the dynamic choice of the Smagorinsky constant, the
Dynamic Smagorinsky model remains very diffusive. This disadvantage was
overcome within the similarity models. The main point of the similarity
model is the assumption that the statistical properties of the once filtered
field uQ i are identical to these of the double filtered field uQQ i . It is the case
if the filter width is small. The difference between once and double filtered
velocities is negligible, i.e. different scale motions are similar.

15.6 Mixed similarity models
The experience shows that diffusion produced by the scale similarity mo-
del (15.18) is too low. The numerical calculations are often unstable using
this model. Taking the fact into account, that the diffusion of the Smagorin-
sky model is too high, it was decided to combine the Samgorinsky and scale
similarity models to get the proper diffusion. The advantages and disadvan-
tages of both models are summarized as follows
Dynamic Smagorinsky Model (DSM): energy dissipation is overesti-
mated (drawback), energy backscattering is not reproduced (draw-
back),
Scale similarity model: energy backscattering is reproduced (advan-
tage), energy dissipation is underestimated (drawback).
The idea combine models to strengthen the advantages and to overcome dis-
advantages of both models. The hybrid model called as the mixed similarity
model is written as

A substantial disadvantage of this formulation is the fact that the Leonard
stress does not satisfy the Galilean invariance condition. The Galilean in-
variance is the independence of basic formula of mechanics on the speed of
the reference system.
The classical definition of the SGS stresses possesses the Galilean invariance.
Indeed, let V be the speed of the reference system. The velocity relative to
the reference system is

The SGS stress does not depend on the reference system speed:

15.7 A-posteriori and a-priori tests
Two tests are used to verify LES models. The comon way is the a-posteriori
test. The LES simulation is performed and then the flow parameters obtained
from the simulation are compared with these from measurement. Depending
on comparison results the conclusion about quality of LES models is drawn.
The disadvantage of such approach is that the LES results are affected by
modelling errors, errors of approximation of differential operators and round-
ing errors. In a-posteriori test they can not be separated.
Direct test of quality of subgrid stresses is the a-priori test. First, the subgrid
stress is calculated at each time instant from the definition
e

Then the subgrid stress is computed again at each time instant from any
model, say Smagorinsky one

simulation is restricted by relatively low Reynolds numbers, whereas main

DES inventors proposed to use the following expression for d :
d D minfd; CDE S g; D maxfx; y; zg
where CDE S 1:3 is the DES constant. Now the main idea of the DES
becomes obvious:
At small wall distance d < CDE S the Spalart Almaras URANS model is
active
At large wall distance d > CDE S the Spalart Almaras URANS model is
smoothly passed into the Smagorinsky model.
Samples of DES applications are presented in Fig. 16.2 and 16.3.
Despite of the wide application Detached Eddy Simulation technique is not
free of disadvantages. Menter [24] notes: The essential concern with DES
is that it does not continuously change from RANS to LES under grid re-
finement. In order for LES structures to appear, the grid spacing and time
step have to be refined beyond a case-dependent critical limit. In addition, a
sufficiently large instability mechanism has to be present to allow the rapid
formation of turbulent structures in regions where the DES limiter is acti-
vated. If one of the two, or both requirements are violated, the resulting
model is undefined and the outcome is largely unpredictable.

The computational domain in our model is dynamically (i.e. at each time
step) divided into the LES and URANS regions. A cell of the mesh belongs
to one or the other region depending on the relation between the integral

As a sample LES and URANS regions are shown in Fig. 16.4 for flow around
a tanker. The URANS region is located close to the ship surface and plays
the role of a dynamic wall function. In areas of bilge vortices formation, the
boundary layer is shedding from the hull and penetrates into the outer flow
part. Since the boundary layer is a fine scale flow the procedure (16.3) recog-
nizes the bilge vortex formation zones as URANS ones. There is a technical
issue concerning the cells which are far from the ship hull and where both
k and " are small, so large numerical errors are introduced into the integral
length scale computed according to Eq. (16.4). To avoid an irregular dis-
tribution of URANS and LES zones, the general rule (16.3) of the domain
decomposition is corrected in such a way that the LES region is switched to
URANS one if k is getting less than some threshold. This procedure has no
influence on the ship flow parameters since it is used far from the area of the
primary interest.
We have performed several calculations with different combinations of LES
and URANS models to find the most efficient one for the problem under
consideration. Among the models we used in our computations are the linear
and nonlinear k-", k-! SST and k"v 2 f URANS models combined with the
simple and dynamic Smagorinsky as well as with the dynamic mixed LES
closure models. The experience shows that the most satisfactory results are
obtained using the URANS approach based on the k"v 2 f turbulent model
of [30] and LES approach based on the Smagorinsky dynamic model. The
turbulent stresses ijt are calculated from the Boussinesq approximation using
the concept of the turbulent viscosity. The only difference between LES
and URANS is the definition of the kinematic viscosity. Within LES it is
considered as the subgrid viscosity and calculated according to the dynamic
model of Smagorinsky:

16.4 Estimations of the resolution necessary
for a pure LES on the example of ship
flow
In the CFD community one can observe tendency to use pure LES without
paying any attention to resolution problems. Very often LES is running on
typical RANS grids. In fact, such computations can give correct results if the
flow structures to be captured are large enough and exist for a long time. In
some cases modeling of such structures does not require detailed resolution
of boundary layers and a thorough treatment of separation regions. As an
example one can mention flows around bluff bodies with predefined separa-
tion lines like ship superstructures. Application of underresolved LES for
well streamlined hulls should be considered with a great care. First of all,
one should not forget that the basic LES subgrid models are derived under
the assumption that at least the inertial turbulent subrange is resolved. Sec-
ond, underresolution of wall region leads to a very inaccurate modeling of
the boundary layer, prediction of the separation and overall ship resistance.
It is clearly illustrated in the Table 16.1. The ship resistance obtained from
underresolved LES using the wall function of (Werner, Wengle [31]) is less
than half of the measured one and that obtained from RANS. Obviously, the
application of modern turbulence LES models, more advanced than RANS
models, does not improve but even makes the results much worse with the
same space resolution. The change from RANS to LES should definitely be
followed by the increase of the resolution which results in a drastic increase
of the computational costs. These facts underline necessity of further devel-
opment towards hybrid methodology. Although in (Alin et al. [32]) it has
been shown that the accuracy of the resistance prediction using pure LES at
a very moderate resolution with y C 30 can be improved using special wall
functions, the most universal way for the present, to our opinion, is applica-
tion of hybrid methods. The impossibility of pure LES is illustrated below
for flow around the KVLCC2 tanker.
The precise determination of the necessary LES resolution is quite difficult.

parameter for grid generation. Both lengths vary in space which makes the
grid generation procedure very complicated. To roughly estimate the size of
the grid we assume that is constant. We performed different calculations
determining at the two following points: i) the point where L= is maximal
in the ship boundary layer and ii) the point in the propeller disk where the
vorticity !E is maximal (region of the concentrated vortex structure). The lat-
ter is dictated by the wish to resolve the most intensive vortex flow structures
which have the strongest influence on the propeller operation. Since LES ap-
plication is required in the ship stern area only this part of the computational
volume has been meshed. It covers the boundary layer of the stern region
starting from the end of the parallel midship section. The thickness of the
meshed region has been constant and equal to the maximum boundary layer
thickness at the stern ıBL . The grid for a pure LES is generated using the
following algorithm. The minimum Kolmogorov length min is determined
in the near wall region. The cell sizes in x and z directions along the wall
are calculated by multiplication of min with the scale parameter . These
sizes remain constant for all cells row in y direction which is normal to the
ship surface (see Fig. 16.5). The cells have at least two equal sizes which is
desirable from the point of view of LES accuracy. The choice of the size in y
direction is dictated by proper resolution of the boundary layer. Close to the
wall this size is chosen from the condition w D min.yw ; min /. Since yw is

simple grading is used in y direction between w and 1 .
Results of the estimations are as follows: the required grid size ranges from
5 M to 25 M for Re D 2:8 106 , and from 7 M to 60 M for
Re D 5:8 106 . The results vary depending on the value of in use, so

17.2 Introduction
The heat transfer inside the human body is an extremely complicated prob-
lem which is difficult to formulate properly. The body generates the heat
within certain organs which is then transferred by the thermal diffusion
through the body substance possessing very non uniform properties. How-
ever, the thermal diffusion being complicated is not the main difficulty of
modeling. A large fraction of the heat generated by internal organs is trans-
ported to the body periphery by a complicated net of blood vessels. This
process has still not been modeled with a desirable accuracy. While a full
detailed model of the human thermodynamics is still remaining the problem
of the future, the practical design of protection clothes demands the reliable
models already now. Such models are necessary to reduce the time and costs
consuming measurements and to avoid dangerous experiments with people
under emergency conditions. The models can be only of a semi empiric char-
acter and must relay on measurements data to diminish the modelling errors.
Especially interesting is the case of human thermodynamics at high tem-
peratures T of surrounding medium. At T > 350 the ability of human
thermoregulation is very restricted [33]. The acceptable body temperature
variation can be only one degree of Celsius. If the body temperature exceeds
this threshold the protecting mechanisms regulating the excessive heat in the
organism through the breathing, humidity diffusion of the skin, radiation and
transpiration don’t work [34], [35]. The most effective principle of the protec-
tion is the mechanism of the heat absorption through, for instance, the ice
embedded into the clothes. This approach being environmentally friendly,

17.3 Human body and ice protection models
The human body model used for simulation is shown in Fig. (17.1). The
main sizes of the body which are important for the discussion of results are
presented in the table 17.1.
Commonly the human body is represented as a set of geometric elements ac-
cording to the original idea proposed by Stolwijk [36]. The body is assumed
to be slender with domination of the heat transfer in horizontal planes. On
the contrary to common models the horizontal cross section of the human
body is represented in our model as a nearly elliptical section with the dis-
placed center. The cross section of the body is subdivided into the five
layers [33]: skin, fat layer, muscles and two core layers (see Fig. (17.2)). The
core represents all human organs and blood vessels. The cross section of
the human body is then represented as a set of sectors subdivided along the
radius into five layers with constant thermal properties (see Fig. 17.2). The

radii of each sector R can be found from the table 17.2. The upper elliptical
cylinder is from the neck to the waist, whereas the lower one from the waist
to the thing (Fig. 17.1). The skin thickness is approximately calculated as
the radius R divided by 60:25 [33]. The sizes of different layers inside of the
cross section are presented in the table 17.3. At the high temperatures the
main part of the heat production occurs in certain organs. The knowledge
about the heat distribution inside the body allows one to choose the most
efficient design of the ice protection which typical construction is shown in
Fig. 17.3. In the mathematical model the ice and the clothes layer are mod-
elled by additional layers covering the human body (Fig. 17.2). The human
body model was developed on the base of data taken from [36], [37], [38]
and [39].
17.4 Mathematical model
It is assumed, that the heat exchange between the sectors is negligible at
every cross section of the human body. Therefore both the vertical and cir-
cumferential heat transfer processes are not taken into account. The heat
transfer along the radius x within each sector is described by the one di-
mensional heat conduction equation derived from the energy conservation
consideration. The change of the internal energy in the sector element with
coordinates x and x C dx due to heat transport within the time dt is

ice layer, Amed is the surface between the ice layer and adjacent clothing
layer in a sector under consideration, ski n is the thermal diffusivity of the
human skin and Aski n is the skin surface in the sector. The second step is the
ice layer melting. The phase transition in matter is described by the Stefan
problem [40]. In this paper we used a simplified approach based on the heat
balance conditions. It is assumed that the water and ice mixture is uniform
with the constant temperature of zero degree of Celsius. The dynamics of
the boundary between the water and ice is not considered. The heat fluxes
(17.8) and (17.9) are constant in time. The second step is finished in time t
once the ice is melted:
Qmelt D .QP med C QP ski n /t (17.10)
Here Qmelt is the heat necessary to melt the whole ice. After that, within
the third step the water from the melted ice is warming up due to heat fluxes
(17.8) and (17.9) continuing in time. The calculations within the third step
are running as long as the comfort conditions are fulfilled.
The equation (17.4) is solved using the finite differential method on the
uniform grid x D const with the constant time step t D const. The
numerical implementation utilizes the central differential scheme for space
derivatives and Crank Nicolson implicit representation of the unsteady term.

The task of this study is the determination of the temperature in the body
core. It is a difficult problem since the direct measurement is impossible.
The experience gathered in physiology [42] shows that the core temperature
can reliably be determined if the temperature Tj at five characteristic points
(forehead, chest, hand, thigh and shin) is known (see Fig.17.7). The sensors
were mounted directly on the human skin with the rate of press not exceeding
0:2 0:25 Pa. The accuracy of measurements is estimated as 0:10 C . These
temperatures are summed up with weighting coefficients wj . Each tempera-
ture is nearly constant within a certain area Aj . The weighting coefficients
are calculated as the ratio of Aj to the total body surface A, i.e. wj D Aj =S.
The averaged temperature is calculated then from the formula [41]

scattering of data illustrates the complexity of the problem of the human
body thermodynamics interaction with a surrounding medium. Our results
agree satisfactory with measurements. Note that the calculations at small
air speeds were performed assuming the laminar character of the flow.
Within the next step the Tin Man body was weared in a neoprene cloth
with the thickness of 1:0 cm to reproduce the case of a diver working at
0
low temperatures of 100 in a sea current with the speed of 1 m=s. The Tin
Man body temperature was uniformly distributed along the body and was 33
degrees of Celsius. The cloth was assumed to be waterproof and uniformly
contaminated by oil products. This case is typical for ship repair works and
rescue and technical operations in oil spill zones. Contamination in terms
of gram per centimeter squared as well as the heat diffusivity coefficient of
contaminated cloth are given in the table 18.1. The size of the computational
domain was 12 12 6 meters, whereas the size of the body was 1:65 meters.
C
For discretization a mesh with 1:3 million of cells was used with y C values
below 0:5 on the whole body. The results for heat flux depending on the
contamination are presented in the last column of table 18.1 and in Fig. 18.2.
As seen the heat flux is almost linear function of the contamination.
The Tin Man body is a primitive simplest geometry. From one side, it makes
the solution of the inner thermodynamics problem much easier. From the
other side, such simplified geometry is not suitable for aerodynamic calcula-
tions since it consists of sharp edges with numerous strong separations. Nu-
merical solution becomes unstable leading to unsatisfactory convergence. Al-
though the real human body is geometrically more complex, the flow around
it can be calculated much easier than 194in the Tin Man case. Therefore, fur-
ther investigations done by our group were performed for real human body
geometry (Fig. 19.1) designed by the Hohenstein Institute [43] based on the
detailed antropological study of different people categories.

downsizing the real body with the scale factor of 0:39. Within the open test
section the size of the air jet with uniform velocity distribution is estimated
as one meter at least. Since it is one and half times as large as the model
height, the influence of the jet boundaries on flow around the body can be
considered as negligible. Two measurement series were performed. In the
first one the pressure was measured at nine points distributed at three cross
sections z D 0:329; 0:418 and 0:476 (see Fig. 19.1 and 19.3) using inclined
manometers which are very accurate for low pressures measurements. Due
to high inertia of inclined manometers the unsteady pressure oscillations
are not captured. Position of measurement points is shown in Fig. 19.1
(points 1; 10 ; 100 , 5; 50 ; 500 and 9; 90 ; 900 ). The measurements were performed
with the air speed of 10m=s at 14 degrees of Celsius. Reynolds number
based on the maximum transversal body size is around 1:33 105 . In the
second series the measurements were performed at nine points 1; :::; 9 shown
in Fig. 19.3(right) only at z D 0:418 (waist). This more detailed investigation
was carried out for two air speeds of 10 and 15 m=s.
19.2 Numerical simulations of pressure dis-
tribution and comparison with measure-
ments
Numerical simulations were performed using the commercial software pack-
age STAR CCM+ for the air speed of 10 m/s. The boundary layer on the
windward side is supposed to be in transitional state. Due to strong sep-
aration the flow on the leeward side of the model and in the wake can be
considered as a turbulent one. The computational domain has the cross sec-
tion of 2:1 2:1 m2 . A length of the domain is 2:1 m in front of the human
body (0:7 m height) and 4:2 m behind 198 it. The grid consists of 1:2 106
polyhedron cells with maximal y C value of 40. On the model sides the y C
value is varied between 20 and 25. To exclude ambiguity connected to the
flow character, simulations were performed both for pure turbulent and pure
laminar flows with and without roughness.
19.3 Comparison of CFD results with mea-
surements
Comparison with measurements for the first series is presented in Fig. 19.2.
The results of measurements and simulations agree well in the front part of
the body and in the separation area. Both simulations and measurements
predict the increase of the pressure coefficient in the section z D 0:476 m
at angle 90 degrees caused by the stagnation effect of the shoulder. On
the side of the model in cross sections z D 0:329 and 0:418 the agreement is
not satisfactory. To clarify this problem, the more detailed second measure-

The results of measurements and simulations agree well in the front part of
the body and in the separation area. Both simulations and measurements
predict the increase of the pressure coefficient in the section z D 0:476 m

the side of the model in cross sections z D 0:329 and 0:418 the agreement is

ment series was performed. All results obtained at z D 0:418 are presented
in Fig. 19.3. The big difference takes place around the angle of approx. 90
degrees in the area of the separation (point 5 in Fig. 19.1). The experiment
doesn’t predict the strong under pressure region on the side of the model.
The minimum experimental pressure coefficient is around 1 whereas the
simulation predicts 2:2 both for laminar and turbulent cases. The differ-
ence between the laminar and turbulent solutions is negligible. This might
be due to two facts. First, the cross section is elliptical (Fig. 19.2, left)
and the averaged position of flow separation points is fixed at the widest
axis and doesn’t depend on the flow character. Second, strong unsteady
flow oscillation makes the difference between laminar and turbulent pressure
distributions negligible.

The experimental results raised many questions. Without big error, the

human body. Then Cpmi n is minus three for the case of two dimensional
cylinder flow. Due to three dimensional effects Cpmi n can be smaller, but
not three times smaller like in measurements. The numerical simulation

between Cp determined for 10 and 15 m/s seems to be very questionable, at
least within the zone of weak Reynolds number influence, i.e. at angles less
than 90 degrees. The flow at angles larger than 90 degrees is unsteady. The
scattering of the data due to unsteady effects is shown both for simulations
and measurement. Obviously, the unsteady pressure oscillations can not
be reason for the disagreement between simulation and experiments. More
detailed experimental study should be carried out in the future to clear this
problem.

summarized in the table 19.1. At strong wind of 20 m/s or 72 km/h the
integral increase of thermal conductivity can be up to seventy percent in the
chest cross section. At moderate wind of 10 m/s the maximum influence is
less than ten percent.

The turbulent kinematic viscosity is computed from the URANS closure mod-
els (see Chapters 12, 13 and 14) whereas the turbulent Prandtl number is
assumed to be constant P r t 0:7. The URANS closure model used in this
work is the k ! SST model [45]. Numerical simulations were performed
using the finite volume method (see Chapter 6). Boundary conditions are
given in the table 20.1.
A few selected results of calculations are illustrated in Fig. 20.3. The distri-
butions of air velocity and temperature inside of the car cabin are strongly
inhomogeneous. In regions of strong velocity the convective heat transfer
dominates whereas in stagnation areas 205 the heat exchange is mostly due to
the heat conduction.
