TRANSITION AND TURBULENCE IN HIGH-SPEED FLOW

June 10-14, 2013

Rhode-St-Genèse, Belgium

The goal of this Lecture Series is to present the state-of-the art in compressible turbulence and in laminar-turbulent transition. Lectures will offer an historical perspective from a theoretical, experimental, and numerical viewpoint. The progress in the field, underlining the knowledge and methods that were borrowed from the incompressible regime, will be provided. Advances in experimental techniques and computational methods will be illustrated. Developments in turbulence modeling for the Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations (RANS) as well as large-eddy (LES) and direct numerical (DNS) simulation will be covered. A review of fundamental physical effects characterizing supersonic and hypersonic regimes will be done. This is including shock turbulence interaction, shock boundary layer interaction or high-temperature chemical effects. This lecture is intended to provide enough introductive material to welcome novices in the field but also advanced information for expert researchers.
