finest turbulance scale
 
Hi everyone!
may be my question is silly, but i'm a new openfoam user and i'm even a bit confused.
I need to know the pressure field around a cylinder, but i would be sure that openfoam solves the finest turbulence scale. I working on a LES simulation and i know it cant solves the finest scale, but it's the turbulence model that simulates them. So my question is: when i run a LES simulation, does the pressure signal in a point have the finest scale (made by the turbulence model) or just the scale that the LES can solve?
