Question 1

What is the purpose of Large Eddy Simulation?

  • To resolve all turbulent scales without approximation.
  • To model the behavior of large eddies while approximating smaller ones.
  • To simplify the Navier-Stokes equations for non-turbulent flows.

💡 Hint: Think about the relationship between accuracy and efficient computation.

Question 2

True or False: In LES, small eddies are fully resolved without approximation.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider what LES focuses on versus what is approximated.
