β¦ Synopsis
The variational multiscale method provides a methodical framework for large eddy simulation of turbulent ows. In this work, a particular implementation in the form of a three-level ΓΏnite element method separating large resolved, small resolved, and unresolved scales is proposed. Residual-free bubbles are used for the numerical approximation of the small-scale momentum equation. A stabilizing term is added, in order to take into account the e ect of the small-scale continuity equation. This implementation guarantees the stability of the method without further provisions and o ers substantial computational savings on the small-scale level. Furthermore, it is accounted for the unresolved scales by a speciΓΏc dynamic modelling procedure. The method is tested for two di erent turbulent ow situations.
