Description
Turbulence is one of the key issues in tackling engineering flow problems. As powerful computers and accurate numerical methods are now
available for solving the flow equations, and since engineering applications nearly always involve turbulence effects, the reliability
of CFD analysis depends increasingly on the performance of the turbulence models.
This series of symposia provides a forum for
presenting and discussing new developments in the area of turbulence modelling and measurements, with particular emphasis on engineering-related
problems. The papers in this set of proceedings were presented at the 5th International Symposium on Engineering Turbulence Modelling
and Measurements in September 2002. They look at a variety of areas, including: Turbulence modelling; Direct and large-eddy simulations;
Applications of turbulence models; Experimental studies; Transition; Turbulence control; Aerodynamic flow; Aero-acoustics; Turbomachinery
flows; Heat transfer; Combustion systems; Two-phase flows. These papers are preceded by a section containing 6 invited papers covering
various aspects of turbulence modelling and simulation as well as their practical application, combustion modelling and particle-image
velocimetry.
Audience:
For engineers and engineering researchers.
