Abstract:
We investigate the possibility of reducing the computational burden of LES models by employing local polynomial degree adaptivity in the framework of a high order DG method. A novel degree adaptation technique especially featured to be effective for LES applications is proposed and its effectiveness is compared to that of other criteria already employed in the literature. The resulting locally adaptive approach allows to achieve significant reductions in computational cost of representative LES computations.
