This work investigates the method of large-eddy simulation (LES) in the context of gravity currents, which is found necessary since it allows a substantial increase in the order of magnitude of the characteristic Reynolds number used in numerical simulations, approaching them with natural scales, in addition to significantly reducing the computational cost. The implicit large eddy simulation (ILES) methodology, based on the spectral vanishing viscosity model, is unprecedentedly employed in the context of gravity currents, is compared against with explicit methods such as the static and dynamic Smagorisnky. The evaluation of the models is performed based on statistics from a direct numerical simulation (DNS). Results demonstrate that the first model based purely on numerical dissipation, introduced by means of the second order derivative, generates better correlations with the direct simulation. Finally, experimental cases of the literature, in different flow configurations, are reproduced numerically showing good agreement in terms of the front position evolution.
Este trabalho investiga o m?todo de simula??o de grandes escalas (LES) no contexto de correntes gravitacionais. O mesmo se faz necess?rio, visto que possibilita um aumento substancial da ordem de grandeza do n?mero de Reynolds caracter?stico utilizado em simula??es num?ricas, aproximando os mesmos de escalas naturais, al?m de reduzir significativamente o custo computacional dos c?lculos. A avalia??o dos modelos ? realizada utilizando uma base de dados de simula??o num?rica direta (DNS). A metodologia de simula??o de grandes escalas impl?cita (ILES), baseada no modelo de viscosidade turbulenta espectral, ? colocado a prova de maneira in?dita no contexto de correntes de gravidade com m?todos expl?citos dispon?veis na literatura. Resultados demonstram que o mesmo, baseado puramente em dissipa??o num?rica introduzida por meio do comportamento dos esquemas de derivada de segunda ordem, gera melhores correla??es com as estat?sticas baseadas em campos m?dios da simula??o direta. Por fim, casos experimentais da literatura, em diferentes configura??es de escoamento, s?o reproduzidos numericamente.
