Abstract

Direct numerical simulations of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations at high Reynolds numbers are not yet feasible, so dynamically less complex mathematical formulations such as Large Eddy Simulation (LES) have been developed. For the well-known eddy viscosity models for LES, the computational method is based on the combination of invariants of a symmetric tensor that depends on the gradient of the resolved velocity field, G = ¿u. Several models (namely S3PQR) have been developed using the first three principal invariants of the symmetric tensor GGT with excellent results. Therefore, in this work, we will focus on the application of the S3PQR and other LES models on the free boundary layer case. Then, we will test their performances over a fully developed boundary layer wind farm, using a simplified wind turbine model.
