What is the relationship between SGS viscosity (μSGS), density (ρ), characteristic length (Δ) and the average strain rate of the resolved flow (\(\mid\overline{S}\mid \) ) in the Smagorinsky-Lilly SGS model?(a) μSGS=ρ(C)^2 Δ\(\mid\overline{S}\mid \)(b) μSGS=ρC(Δ)^2\(\mid\overline{S}\mid^2\)(c) μSGS=ρ(CΔ)^2\(\mid\overline{S}\mid \)(d) μSGS=ρ(CΔ)^2\(\mid\overline{S}\mid \)I had been asked this question in a national level competition.Origin of the question is Turbulence Modelling topic in division Turbulence Modelling of Computational Fluid Dynamics

Answer»

Right answer is (d) μSGS=ρ(CΔ)^2\(\MID\overline{S}\mid \)

EASY EXPLANATION: The equation for SGS viscosity is obtained by the dimensional analysis. It is given by the equation μSGS=ρ(CΔ)^2\(\mid\overline{S}\mid \) . Where, C is the CONSTANT of SGS viscosity.
