A grid-free method for the LES of turbulent incompressible flow is presented. The computational engine is based on the Lagrangian Vortex Element Method to account for the dynamics of the resolved vorticity field and the Vorticity Redistribution Method (VRM) to account for turbulent diffusion. Turbulence is modeled here using the standard Smagorinsky subgrid-scale model but work is underway to implement a dynamic version. In this paper, the accuracy and convergence rate of VRM are presented for the case of diffusion with variable viscosity. Furthermore, the adaptivity as well as the robustness of the proposed method in capturing large-scale vortex structures typical of vortex dominated turbulent flow are demonstrated using preliminary results from the LES of the collision of a pair of coaxial vortex rings, perturbed initially by the wave-number of their most unstable mode.

A time-accurate three-dimensional Navier-Stokes solver of the unsteady flow field in a transonic fan was carried out using "Fluent-parallel" in a parallel supercomputer. The numerical simulation focused on a transonic fan with inlet square wave total pressure distortion and the analysis of result consisted of three aspects. The first was about inlet parameters redistribution and outlet total temperature distortion induced by inlet total pressure distortion. The pattern and causation of flow loss caused by pressure distortion in rotor were analyzed secondly. It was found that the influence of distortion was different at different radial positions. In hub area, transportation-loss and mixing-loss were the main loss patterns. Distortion not only complicated them but enhanced them. Especially in stator, inlet total pressure distortion induced large-scale vortex, which produced backflow and increased the loss. While in casing area, distortion changed the format of shock wave and increased the shock loss. Finally, the format of shock wave and the hysteresis of rotor to distortion were analyzed in detail.

This paper presents results of an experimental investigation into the effects of inlet skew on the flowfield of a large scale axial flow turbine cascade. The results are presented in terms of the development of the streamwise vorticity since, in classical terms, the streamwise vorticity generates the transverse velocity components that cause the generation of the secondary losses. Inlet skew is shown to have a profound effect on the distribution and magnitude of the generated losses. A number of correlations for the secondary losses are compared with the measured values and it is shown that the correlations are not adequate for accurate loss prediction purposes.
