This review highlights major developments and milestones during the early days of numerical simulation of turbulent flows and its use to increase our understanding of turbulence phenomena. The period covered starts with the first simulations of decaying homogeneous isotropic turbulence in 1971–1972 and ends about 25 years later. Some earlier history of the progress in weather prediction is included if relevant. Only direct simulation, in which all scales of turbulence are accounted for explicitly, and large-eddy simulation, in which the effect of the smaller scales is modeled, are discussed. The method by which all scales are modeled, Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes, is not covered.

湍流模拟的早期和兴起


这篇综述重点介绍了湍流数值模拟早期的主要发展和里程碑，及其用于增加我们对湍流现象的理解。所涵盖的时期从 1971 年至 1972 年第一次模拟衰减均质各向同性湍流开始，到大约 25 年后结束。如果相关的话，还包括天气预报进展的一些早期历史。仅讨论了直接模拟（其中明确考虑了所有尺度的湍流）和大涡模拟（其中对较小尺度的影响进行了建模）。未涵盖对所有尺度进行建模的方法，即雷诺平均纳维-斯托克斯。
