IMEX‐ODTLES: A multi‐scale and stochastic approach for highly turbulent flows.

The stochastic One‐Dimensional Turbulence (ODT) model is used in combination with a Large Eddy Simulation (LES) approach in order to illustrate the potential of the fully coupled model (ODTLES) for highly turbulent flows. In this work, we use a new C++ implementation of the ODTLES code in order to analyze the computational performance in a classical incompressible turbulent channel flow problem. The parallelization potential of the model, as well as its physical and numerical consistency are evaluated and compared to Direct Numerical Simulations (DNSs). The numerical results show that the model is capable of reproducing a representative part of the DNS data at a cheaper computational cost. This advantage can be enhanced in the future by the implementation of a straightforward parallelization approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
