ADREA-HF CFD CODE Constantly developing

  • Latest additions:

– LES (Large Eddy Simulation) – Parallel solver – Arbitrary number of species – Combustion – GUI pre and post processor (called EDes)

  • Advantages:

– Robust, powerful and general – Specialization in environmental applications – “ADREA + dispersion”: 29 hits in Scopus

LARGE EDDY SIMULATION Between DNS and RANS

  • Navier-Stokes math. analysis: impossibly difficult
  • DNS:

Fully-resolved NS

– Cost  Re2.75 (for wall-bounded flows  Re3.5)

  • RANS:

Time-averaged NS

– Fast, widely tested, usually accurate “enough”

  • LES:

Spatially-filtered NS

– Cost near wall:  Re2.4 ! (at outer layer  Re0.5) – Converges to DNS. As in DNS, LES needs: a) averaging b) demanding boundary conditions – Suggested were RANS fails: transient, separated flow

LES Boundary and initial conditions

  • Initial conditions should also create turbulence

– “Vortex generator” may be needed – Simpler solution: big over-imposed disturbance

  • Boundary conditions should also retain turbulence

– Difficult to do explicitly – Simpler solution: cyclic BC

  • Near wall:

– Well-resolved LES requires z+=1 – “Wall-function”-type solutions for coarser grids

TEST CASES SETUP a) Channel flow

  • 1D fully-developed channel flow: the classic LES test

– DNS of Moser et al, 1999 Re = 8000 – 90000 cells – Cyclic BC – z+ = 1 – CFLmax < 0.3 – Cs = 0.065 – Mass flow correction to control Re – Time 50s = 160 passes Averaging from 20s

TEST CASES SETUP b) Street canyon

  • 2D street canyon: the most basic urban case

– Water channel of Li et al, 2009 Re = 12000 – 300000 cells – Cyclic BC: sequence of identical canyons – z+ = 1 – Time 1000s = 250H/U Averaging from 400s

DISCUSSION LES of ADREA-HF is competitive

  • ADREA performs well against exps and other LESs
  • Channel: Cs correction needed near wall
  • General tendency of Reynolds stresses predicted
  • Canyon: Performance very close to fine-grid LES
  • Profiles similar shape to experimental ones
  • Experiment stronger vortex with more turbulence:

– In experiment vortex generators were used – In experiment 3D effects were present

  • RANS (not shown) was also good in these tests

CONCLUSIONS LES is not for everyday use

  • ADREA-HF has now tested LES
  • LES is not RANS++
  • LES orders of magnitude more expensive than RANS
  • Near wall treatment a key point for real-world cases
  • What now:

– Refine ADREA LES – Add and test more LES options
