Turbulence Concepts: Reynolds Decomposition and Closure Problem
Graph Chatbot
Description
This lecture covers the concepts of Reynolds decomposition, Reynolds averaged Navier-Stokes equations for mean flow, and the closure problem in turbulence modeling. It discusses the Bousinesq hypothesis, eddy viscosity, and the feedback on the mean flow, emphasizing the challenges in modeling turbulent flows.
