[CFD] Large Eddy Simulation (LES): An Introduction

Title:

Description:

An introduction to Large Eddy Simulation (LES) and how to make the transition from RANS to LES. The following topics are covered:

1) 3:13 How are eddies resolved in CFD?

2) 8:23 What is the turbulent energy cascade and why is it important for LES?

3) 15:25 How fine does the mesh need to be for LES?
