Micro Abstract:
Variational multiscale methods for LES of turbulent single- and two-phase flows are presented. To recover the subgrid-scale velocity, multifractal scale similarity in the enstrophy field of turbulent flow is exploited. The extended finite element method allows for sharply representing discontinuities at the interface of two-phase flow on a fixed grid. Various numerical examples, ranging from turbulent flow past a backward-facing step to turbulent bubbly channel flow, illustrate the methods.
