The prospect of using LES and DES in engineering design, and the research required to get there

Abstract

In this paper we try to look into the future to divine how large eddy and detached eddy simulations (LES and DES, respectively) will be used in the engineering design process about 20-30 years from now. Some key challenges specific to the engineering design process are identified, and some of the critical outstanding problems and promising research directions are discussed.Comment: accepted for publication in the Royal Society Philosophical Transactions
