What is Energy Partitioning Control in the PITM Hybrid RANS/LES Method for the Simulation of Turbulent Flows about?

The partially integrated transport modeling (PITM) method first introduced in Refs. Schiestel and Dejoan (Theor Comput Fluid Dyn 18:443, 2005) and in Chaouat and Schiestel (Phys Fluids 17:065106, 2005) provides a continuous approach for hybrid RANS-LES simulations. Inspired from the multiple scale approach, the basis of the development of the method is the spectral space in quasi-homogeneous turbulence. The PITM method embodies a partitioning control function that monitors the ratio of subfilter energy to total turbulent energy by reference to the cutoff wavenumber location. How this procedure behaves in inhomogeneous flows is an important question. The present paper demonstrates that the same control function can be used both in homogeneous and in non-homogeneous flows as well. Further on, an analysis of the effect of anisotropic filters generally used for wall flows is conducted for computing the equivalent cutoff wavenumber suitable for determining the subfilter energy of the spectrum and see how it interferes with control function. Illustrations in the turbulent plane channel flow are given that confirm the efficiency of the procedure and DNS data have been used to support and
