However, the sub-grid scale （SGS） models reported so far have not ascertained under what flow conditions the LES can lapse into the direct nu-merical simulation. To overcome this discrepancy, this paper develops a swirling strength based the SGS model to properly model the turbulence intermittency, with the primary characteristics that when the local swirling strength is zero, the local sub-grid viscosity will be vanished. In this paper, the model is used to investigate the flow characteris-tics of zero-incident incompressible turbulent flows around a single square cylinder （SC） at a low Reynolds number range Re ∈ [103, 104]. The flow characteristics investigated include the Reynolds number dependence of lift and drag coefficients, the distributions of time-spanwise averaged variables such as the sub-grid viscosity and the logarithm of Kolmogorov micro-scale to the base of 10 at Re=2 500 and 104, the contours of spanwise and streamwise vorticity components at t = 170. It is revealed that the peak value of sub-grid viscosity ratio and its root mean square （RMS） values grow with the Reynolds number. The dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy is larger near the SC solid walls. The instantaneous factor of swirling strength intermittency （FSI） exhibits some laminated structure involved with vortex shedding.展开更多

The spatial distance between these two structures is found to be slightly greater than the vortex radius. Comparison of the core areas of the vortex tubes and the dissipation slabs gives a mean ratio of 0.16 for the mean swirling strength and that of 2.89 for the mean dissipation rate. These results verify that in the channel flow the slabs of intense dissipation and the vortex tubes do not coincide in space. Rather they appear in pairs offset with a mean separation of approximately 10η.展开更多
