Turbulent Boundary Layer (DNS)

New high-quality movie of a turbulent boundary layer studied by direct numerical simulation (DNS) performed in 2010, reaching up to Re_theta=4300. Simulations were performed with up to 7.5 billion grid points on the Ekman cluster at KTH Stockholm. More information and simulation data: http://www.mech.kth.se/~pschlatt/DATA.

Direct download: http://www.e-science.se/sites/default... Results of this DNS are described in Schlatter and Orlu, 2010, Journal of Fluid Mechanics, 659, 116-126. The simulations use a spectral discretisation of the incompressible Navier-Stokes equations on a grid with 8192x513x768 spectral modes.
