This award provides travel funds to support technical coordination between the Blue Waters project team and a team of turbulence researchers to explore the readiness of a turbulence simulation code for use on the Blue Waters system. If successful it is anticipated that the code will be used for advanced research into the dynamics of reactive turbulent shear flows and of stratified geophysical turbulence. A greater understanding of such dynamics may lead to improved capacity to predict and control pollutant dispersal by turbulence, better tools for the design of vehicles (e.g. aircraft, trains, ships) to reduce drag, for the design of combustion systems to increase efficiency and reduce pollutants, and to improved models for mixing and transport phenomena in geophysical flow modeling.

该奖项为Blue沃茨项目团队和湍流研究人员团队之间的技术协调提供差旅费，以探索湍流模拟代码在Blue沃茨系统上的可用性。 如果成功的话，预计该代码将用于先进的研究动力学反应湍流剪切流和分层地球物理湍流。 更好地理解这种动力学可能会导致更好的能力来预测和控制污染物扩散的湍流，更好的工具，设计的车辆（如飞机，火车，船舶），以减少阻力，燃烧系统的设计，以提高效率和减少污染物，并改进模型的混合和运输现象的地球物理流动建模。
