项目摘要

Understanding, predicting and controlling turbulent flows is of central importance and a limiting factor to a vast range of industries: naval, aeronautical, automotive, power generation, process, pharmaceutical, meteorological and environmental. Many of the environmental and energy-related issues we face today cannot possibly be tackled without a better understanding of turbulent flows. The UK Turbulence Consortium (UKTC) is a group of UK researchers committed to undertaking high quality, world leading turbulence simulation and scientific research using high performance computing systems. Funded in 1995, the UKTC has been through six highly successful iterations, with significant growth, from 5 original members to 70 members from nearly 30 UK institutions for the present bid, with an inclusive approach to developing and serving the community. Our view is that the key to advances in turbulence is by sustaining and stimulating interaction among researchers. It is essential that a diverse range of viewpoints, opinions, strategies and methods are brought together in an efficient and constructive manner. The essence of the UK Turbulence Consortium is to provide the central core of a needed critical mass activity considering the big challenges posed by turbulence. In the last 25 years, the UKTC has (i) demonstrated its ability to convert access to national High-End Computing (HEC) resources into internationally leading research, (ii) established its international competitiveness, (iii) helped its members to leverage and secure multi-million pound grants from governmental funding bodies and industries, (iv) allowed the discovery of new fluid flow phenomena which have led to new ways of improving beneficial effects and reducing negative effects of turbulent flows and (v) facilitated the design of more sophisticated turbulence models redefining industry standards.

了解、预测和控制湍流对于海军、航空、汽车、发电、加工、制药、气象和环境等众多行业来说至关重要，也是限制因素。如果不更好地了解湍流，我们今天面临的许多环境和能源相关问题就不可能得到解决。英国湍流联盟 (UKTC) 是一群英国研究人员，致力于使用高性能计算系统进行高质量、世界领先的湍流模拟和科学研究。 UKTC 于 1995 年资助，已经经历了六次非常成功的迭代，取得了显着的增长，从最初的 5 名成员增加到目前申办的来自近 30 个英国机构的 70 名成员，并以包容性的方式发展和服务社区。我们的观点是，湍流研究取得进展的关键是维持和刺激研究人员之间的互动。必须以有效和建设性的方式汇集各种观点、意见、策略和方法。英国湍流联盟的本质是考虑到湍流带来的巨大挑战，提供所需的临界质量活动的核心。在过去 25 年中，UKTC 已经 (i) 展示了其将国家高端计算 (HEC) 资源转化为国际领先研究的能力，(ii) 建立了其国际竞争力，(iii) 帮助其成员利用并获得政府资助机构和行业数百万英镑的资助，(iv) 发现了新的流体流动现象，从而找到了提高有益效果和减少负面影响的新方法。 (v) 促进了更复杂的湍流模型的设计，重新定义了行业标准。
