Question 1

What is the primary purpose of Large Eddy Simulation (LES)?

  • To resolve all turbulence scales
  • To model only large turbulent structures
  • To balance computation and accuracy for turbulent flows

💡 Hint: Consider why we need a method that is not as intensive as DNS.

Question 2

True or False: Large eddies are isotropic.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Recall the differences between large and small eddies.
