Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a scenario where your simulation environment is limited to resolving only small eddies. Discuss the limitations and implications this might have on your turbulence model.

💡 Hint: Consider what you might miss or over-simplify using this approach.

Question 2

Propose how filtering techniques in LES might evolve to improve the resolution of smaller eddies without substantially increasing computational costs.

💡 Hint: Think about advancements in computational resources and modeling techniques.
