Abstract

Experimental results show that heat- and mass-transfer processes in recirculating turbulent flows, which comprise several vortexes of the mean flow, are significantly influenced by low-frequency large scale flow oscillations. The large eddy simulation (LES) model reproduces with good conformity not only these oscillations together with the dynamics of the macroscopic coherent structure, but also the turbulent energy transfer. Numerical studies, presented in this article, confirm the possibility of using LES for successful simulation of heat- and mass-transfer processes in metallurgical applications.
