Development and apllications of hybrd LES-RANS methods for turbulent flows of high Reynolds numbers, details under DFG CNRS Research Unit 507, A French-German Research Group LES of Complex Flows

Objectives:

1. Development and application of simulation methods for fluid-structure interactions in turbulent flows, cf.

Development of numerical simulation methods for turbulent, particle-laden multiphase flows.

Objectives:

• Efficient Euler-Lagrange computational methods for highly charged flows.
• Consideration of particle-wall and particle-particle collisions.
• Use of modern methods for the continuous phase: LES, hybrid LES-URANS
• Efficient use of high-performance computers
