Default Mesh size for DNS and LES

Hi all,

I've been doing some reading into DNS and LES techniques, and I have been having some problems finding how you can determine what mesh size you require for the two approaches.

The papers I have seen just say "we used a mesh of x by y by z", with no justification that the mesh they used is fine enough to resolve the turbulence scale structures. Does anyone have any references on how fine a mesh is required for DNS or LES? Or am I missing something?

Regards, Glenn
