Large eddy simulation of Rayleigh-Taylor instability using the arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian method

Abstract: This research addresses the application of a large eddy simulation (LES) to Arbitrary Lagrangian Eulerian (ALE) simulations of Rayleigh-Taylor instability.-First, ALE simulations of simplified Rayleigh-Taylor instability are studied. The advantages of ALE over Eulerian simulations are shown. Next, the behavior of the LES is examined in a more complicated ALE simulation of Rayleigh-Taylor instability. The effects of eddy viscosity and stochastic backscatter are examined. The LES is also coupled with ALE to incr… Show more

“…The numerical shock hydro experiments were conducted in the framework of an existing ALE hydro code, cf. [18,19], in order to showcase the plug-in character of the proposed tensor artificial viscosity. Therefore, the quality of the full simulation results below is limited by the inaccuracies of the existing staggered-grid method, such as the HEMP operator for computing the pressure gradient and the approach for computing nodal momentum using simple nodal masses.…”
