Flow around a three-dimensional bluff body

Paper in proceeding, 2000

Large Eddy Simulation (LES) is used to compute the flow around a sharp-edged surface-mounted cube. Different visualization techniques were used, and the results of these are presented. Since Large Eddy Simulation is a time-dependent three-dimensional numerical technique, it allows visualization that is unattainable in RANS (Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes) methods or experiments.
