In this article, we review recent studies on structural subgrid scale modeling, focusing on evaluating how well these models predict the effects of small scales. The article discusses a priori and a posteriori test results. Other nonlinear models are briefly discussed, and future prospects are noted.展开更多

Explicit algebraic approximation was achieved for both small eddy and large eddy scalar fluxes. Especially, the large eddy scalar flux was modelled with complex diffusivity. The singular difficulties in usual algebraic scalar models, do not occur any more in this model. In addition, this new model provides a new way to reasonably describe the negative transport phenomena appearing in asymmetric turbulent flows.展开更多
