Best book about Turbulence models

Hi Guys,
I am looking for a nice book which presents an overview of turbulence models (k-epsilon, RSM, LES possibly DES and DNS too) with both a theory overview and practical application overview (i.e. examples which a model fails to predict, or which it predicts correctly). it would be the best if both compressible and uncompressible cases were presented. I had a look to books list and reviews on this site, but I could not find what I am looking for. Thanks for help in advance! Michele |

Very comprehensive and easy to read: Turbulent Flows by Stephen B. Pope
Not so comprehensive, introductory and a bit dated, but very readable: Turbulence Modeling for Cfd by David C. Wilcox I can add several more to this list, but I'd rather stick to my top two favorites... |

Does anyone simulate the true 2D or 3D de Laval nozzle? Does the result approach the position of the shock of quasi-one-dimension model?

Yes, it should and does. Why are you asking?

"Closure Strategies for Turbulent and Transitional Flows' Edited by B. E. Launder and N. D. Sandham, Cambridge University Press, 2002.
This is the most comprehensive turbulent modeling book I ever see. |

Ciao Michele,
I personally appreciated the one by Wilcox. It's very easy to understand and CFD-oriented, but it's true: it's a bit dated (1993/1994) and DNS and LES are defined as "new horizons"... In bocca al lupo Edi. |

Dear Mani,
Have you ever do the simulation of 2d or 3d laval nozzle? I want to know more details of the results. thank you! john |

John,
yes, I have. What exactly do you want to know? Regarding the shock position, I generally find pretty good agreement between the inviscid 2D/3D flow and the quasi-1D theory. Of course, this will somewhat depend on the nozzle shape, i.e. it depends on how significant the cross-sectional variations are. What is the problem you have? |
